M&M’s have been a holiday candy staple for nearly 40 years, with those iconic red and green chocolates first showing up in candy bowls back in the 1980s. And it’s no surprise why they’ve remained a seasonal favorite. The holidays tend to bring out our collective sweet tooth, and, as proven by recent drops from Reese’s, Snickers, and Twix, a little festive makeover can make all the difference. This year, M&M’s is going back to its core—milk chocolate—and refreshing its holiday flair on the outside instead. This holiday season, Mars is introducing a new take on its festive M&M’s: Winter Blend. The mix celebrates not just the holidays, but the whole winter season, featuring the signature milk chocolate candies coated in a cool palette of white, icy blue, and deep navy. No new flavors this time around—just the same beloved chocolate wrapped in a new seasonal color scheme. Still, these wintery hues are a bright and cheery update for your candy dish. And if you’re used to whipping up M&M’s snack mixes or studding your holiday sugar cookies with them, this winter wonderland-inspired mix gives you a new look to play with—without changing the flavor of your favorite treats.
