To capture this flavor, McDonald's has swirled its soft serve with a crunchy graham-style crumble, some squishy [mini marshmallows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smores-mousse-parfait), and hot fudge. The new S’mores McFlurry is available in both snack size and regular size, and joins [McDonald's Canada's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/squishmallows-mcflurry) current McFlurry lineup of Oreo, SKOR, Smarties, Confetti Cookie Dough, and Strawberry Cheesecake.
