3 Musketeers with Mint Refreshes Love for Mint and Dark Chocolate

The 3 Musketeers Mint Bar is produced and manufactured by the M&M/MARS company. This past summer's launching of 3 Musketeers Mint marks 75 years since the company's first brand extension.

The 3 Musketeers Mint Bar is made of rich, dark chocolate, enrobing lightly flavored mint nougat.

Nougat is a frappe made from whipped egg whites stabilized with sugar syrup.

The Taste of the 3 Musketeers Bar Dark Chocolate Mint
The new 3 Musketeers Bar Dark Chocolate Mint makes the perfect after dinner mint.
I didn't expect to like it as well as I do. Dark Chocolate surrounds the usual 3 Musketeers fluffy white nougat, only the fluffy white nougat has just a hint of mint flavoring in it. The taste is refreshing but not overpowering! Perfect for an after dinner treat with a cup of coffee or just to keep on hand in a candy dish at your desk.

The texture makes the confection easily melt in your mouth and it's not as rich and heavy as a Peppermint Patty. The 3 Musketeers Mint Bar is satisfying and refreshing.
