Euro News: New Bite Size Treats


Yesterday, Unilever published news (here) about new bite size treats from Magnum as well as a new flavor of bite size treats from Ben & Jerry's. They also mention that the Yasso poppables are doing quite well. The bad news is that these new treats arent available in the US, but hopefully they will be someday.

First we have the tasty and fun looking Magnum Bons Bons. They come twelve in a tub. The flavors are White Chocolate & Cookies, Gold Caramel Billionaire, and Salted Caramel & Almond. I would totally devour all three of these flavors.

One thing confuses me though. The news says this is Magnum's first bite sized product, but they already had "ice cream bites" in their European lineup. Granted those were more of a ball shaped treat served in a tray and these are more of a puck shape, but still... Wait. Magnum Bites debuted in Australia and New Zealand in 2022 and they look very similar to these new bon bons. They had a vanilla ice cream filling and came with either a chocolate coating or an almond chocolate coating. Yeah, these new versions are definitely more tempting.

I had totally forgotten about Ben & Jerry's Peaces even though superfan @sven_and_jerrys posted about the cookie dough flavor way back in early 2022. Well, those original 'peaces' will be joined by the new salted caramel brownie flavor soon. You get ten in a bag.. so maybe two servings of five? 

I'm kind of shocked that peaces haven't made their way to the states yet, but fingers crossed for 2025.


Lastly, here's a picture of the Yasso Poppables incase you've never seen or noticed them. I took this photo in April 2023 when the poppables made the transition from box to bag (and from 50 calories to 35 calories per poppable).

So, anyone interested in these treats?
