How does dark chocolate M&M's compare with the milk chocolate original?

The shell is the same, but the center is darker and less sweet. If you find regular M&M's too sugary, this is the closer fit.

Is this real dark chocolate?

It is dark chocolate, but it is made for a mild, crowd-pleasing taste rather than the bitterness of a high-cacao bar. Expect smooth and lightly sweet, not intense.

How many bags come in the pack?

Two 9.4 oz sharing-size bags. Each bag is resealable, so you can keep one closed while the other is open.

Can I use these for baking?

Yes. The shells hold their shape in cookies and on top of cakes, though they can crack in a hot oven. Add them near the end of baking.

Do the pieces come individually wrapped?

No. The pieces are loose in the bag, so they suit a bowl or a jar rather than party favors.

How should I store them?

Keep the bag sealed in a cool, dry place. Heat softens the chocolate and can cause the shells to crack or melt together.

Our take on the M&M's Dark Chocolate Candy Sharing Size 9.4 oz, Pack of 2

M&M's Dark Chocolate is the classic candy-shell button made with dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate, sold in a 9.4 oz sharing-size bag. The shell stays crisp and the center is deeper and less sweet than the milk chocolate original, which suits people who find regular M&M's too sugary. It is a simple pantry or party-bowl candy rather than a premium dark chocolate bar, and it competes with peanut, peanut butter and caramel variants on texture more than on chocolate quality.
