Frequently Asked Questions About M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies
What are M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies made of?
M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies have a milk chocolate center covered by a thin, colored sugar shell. The shell gives them their crisp outside, while the chocolate inside softens as it warms in your mouth.
Why don't M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies melt in your hand?
M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies can melt in heat, but their hard sugar coating helps keep the chocolate from immediately smearing onto your fingers. In a warm place, the chocolate can soften and the shell may become sticky.
Can you bake with M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies?
Yes, M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies can be added to cookies, brownies, and other baked treats. Their colors may bleed or fade in the oven, so for a brighter decoration, press them onto the surface after baking.
What is the difference between M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies and peanut M&M's?
M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies have a milk chocolate center, while peanut M&M's contain a whole peanut surrounded by chocolate. The peanut version is crunchier and has a distinctly nutty flavor.
How should you store opened M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies?
Store opened M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight. Heat can soften the chocolate, while moisture may make the candy shells sticky.
Are M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies safe for dogs?

Can M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies be used to decorate a cake?
Yes, M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies work well as a colorful cake topping. Add them after the frosting is in place, and keep the cake cool so the chocolate softens less and the candy shells stay crisp.
