I teased some of you on Twitter about this post and you were all chomping at the bit. So without further ado… My reviews on this season’s m&m flavors!
CHERRY CORDIAL M&Ms:
These solid milk chocolate m&ms tasted freakishly like real cherry cordials… but, you know, without the cherries. Lately I’ve been extra weary of Franken-foods, so I’m torn on my reaction to these treats. They’re Tasty! Like florescent-red-popsicle-cherry-flavor in a milk chocolate form Tasty!
Additionally, these are Large m&ms. (Cherry Cordial vs. regular below)
This greater size makes for a more chocolatey and enjoyable experience. Though, I can’t say much for the red and maroon color combination. It’s not the most aesthetically pleasing scheme to pour into your crystal candy bowl. Not that I have any brilliant suggestions, but that IS the point of buying a large bag of seasonal m&ms around the holidays, right? To decorate your house with colorful bowls of candies?
CINNAMON M&Ms:
While the Cinnamon m&ms were far more subtle in flavor, they were the same monster size of solid milk chocolate as the Cherry Cordials. I’ve never been a huge fan of Mexican Chocolate (the cinnamon- chocolate combo), so I can’t say I leapt for joy over this holiday rendition. The color-combo, though, was a little more exciting with a third shade of brown to spruce things up.
Overall, I can’t say I’ll be going back for more. I enjoyed the larger portion of milk chocolate in each candy treat, but neither of these holiday flavors with their blah color schemes will be making it into my candy bowls.
How about you? What’s your favorite m&m flavor? Do you fill your bowls with m&ms?!

Have not tried cherry but it sounds delicious! Thus far I have enjoyed all M&M’s except for the Pretzel. I base what I buy on taste, not the color of the mixture. I actually like the muted red and brown colors.
Awe yes, if it’s for treating myself, I don’t care about the colors, but if it’s for decorating the house, then it matters more to me 😉
