The chocolate is coated with orange and white candy shells.<\/p>\n<h3>How is it?<\/h3>\n<p>This new variety proves once again that white chocolate is the best vessel for any flavored M&#038;M\u2019s variety. Unlike milk and dark chocolate, the white chocolate doesn\u2019t get too much in the way of the flavoring. The orange combines perfectly with the creaminess of the white chocolate, creating a balance of flavors that does, at times, remind me of a Orange Creamsicle. But, and this is a good \u201cbut,\u201d there are also moments when I think I\u2019m eating Fruity Pebbles, and the crunch of the candy shell helps with that impression.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/04\/Orange-Vanilla-Cream-MM%E2%80%99s-2-1.jpg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Orange Vanilla Cream M M s 2 1\" title=\"Orange Vanilla Cream M&#038;M\u2019s 2-1.jpg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But, and this is a bad \u201cbut,\u201d at other times, the candy reminds me of another edible product.<\/p>\n<p>Once the cream flavor fades, I\u2019m left with an orange aftertaste that makes me feel I\u2019m getting a dose of chewable vitamin C tablets. Sadly, no vitamin C is included (but a serving does have 4 percent of your daily calcium YAY BONES). As much as I enjoy these, I can\u2019t help but taste an orange vitamin, and that flavor lingers to the point where I need something to get rid of it.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else I need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>Like other white chocolate M&#038;M\u2019s, the candy pieces are noticeably larger than regular milk chocolate M&#038;M\u2019s. Their size probably helps deliver their strong flavor. But their size also helps make them, perhaps, a bit too sweet. While I do think they have a wonderful citrusy and creamy flavor, after eating several, the sweetness builds up to the point where they\u2019re cloying and I don\u2019t want to eat anymore.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>Orange Vanilla Cream M&#038;M\u2019s are a great tasting variety, but in small doses. <\/p>\n<p><b>Purchased Price:<\/b> Purchased online for more money than people should pay<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b> 8.0 oz. bag<br \/>\n<b>Purchased at:<\/b> eBay (Available at Dollar General)<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 7 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Nutrition Facts:<\/b> (1 oz.) 140 calories, 7 grams of fat, 4 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, less than 5 milligrams of cholesterol, 25 milligrams of sodium, 19 grams of carbohydrates, 0 grams of fiber, 18 grams of sugar, and 1 gram of protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is it?
