M&M's is getting in on the creamsicle trend with the debut of a new Orange Vanilla Creme flavor.
Anyone who has enjoyed an ice-cold creamsicle on a hot summer day knows just how delicious the combination of orange and vanilla can be. Now, you can enjoy that flavor in a bite-sized format with the debut of new M&M's Orange Vanilla Creme. The new flavor consists of a rich orange cream center coated in white chocolate and then finished with M&M's classic candy shell coating (in orange and white hues, naturally).
If you're looking to try the new Orange Vanilla Creme M&M's, you'll have to check your local Dollar General because these candies are a Dollar General exclusive and they'll only be available for a limited time.
