Jelly Belly is expanding its Harry Potter-inspired line with a new wizardly chocolate treat that's launching just ahead of this year's holiday season. The Harry Potter Golden Snitch takes the form of a 1.65-oz milk chocolate replica of the fictional sport piece from Quidditch. Fans will not only be delighted by the snackable treat itself but also the gold foil-accented box and the included Quidditch game rule sheet.
In Jelly Belly's Harry Potter-inspired line, there are also other fan-favorite treats like Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans™, Jelly Slugs and Gummi Creatures. The edible solid milk chocolate Golden Snitch will be launching this fall, offering a fun-filled way for fans of the franchise to treat themselves and others who recognize the value of the smallest ball used in Quidditch.
