Russel Stover recently added to its assortment of candies, chocolates and confections with a trio of Summer Dream products, which take the form of chocolate-covered marshmallows.
The new indulgences have been launched in Pina Colada, Banana Split and Peanut Butter Fluff flavors, all of which have an outer casing of milk chocolate. These fruit- and nut-flavored summer treats are individually wrapped and come in one-ounce sizes.
While marshmallows have remained a favorite campfire snack for years, it has only been lately that the light and fluffy soft treats have become popular as decadent, gourmet indulgences. As these new marshmallow snacks are small in size, they make the perfect permissible indulgences, especially when one is craving something more in line with the food creations that inspired each flavor.
