Few foods scream fall quite like caramel apples, which makes the new Caramel Apple Milky Way Minis the ultimate autumnal treat.

The new Caramel Apple Milky Way Minis are a festive fall take on the classic Milky Way chocolate bar. The seasonal version captures the flavor of a red delicious apple and pairs it with melted caramel and rich milk chocolate. As the product description puts it: "Each bite-sized bar encases a ribbon of apple-infused caramel laying delicately over a chunk of chocolate-malt nougat in a soft milk chocolate shell." Each of the miniature candies also come individually wrapped in harvest-themed red and gold packaging so you can add a little seasonal twist to your office or kitchen candy bowl.
