Skittles: Chocolate By Doraemon on Dec 31, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

Skittles are small roundy chewy candies with a white letter "S" printed on them.These candies are coated in a hard coated shell. They are made by Masterfoods, a division of Mars Incorporated. This is the same company that makes the ever popular M&M's.

This particular variety has chocolate based flaros. It has five namely

* S'mores (copper)

* Chocolate Pudding (auburn)

* Chocolate Caramel (brown)

* Vanilla (off-white/buff)

* Brownie Batter (dark brown/black)

The ingredients are as follows: Sugar, corn syrup, hydrogenated palm kernel oil, less than 2% coca powder processed with alkali, dextrin, modified corn starch, artificial and natural flavours, colouring (includes yellow 6 lake, red 40 lake, yellow 5 lake, blue1 lake, blue 2 lake, yellow 5),Gluten-free

These treats are known for their fruity flavors but as an added twist, they started manufacturing these chocolatetreats and unveiled them in the all Candy Expo and in 2007. I like this very much as I am a chocoholic. Having five different flavors adds variety and value to the product plus the choice of mixing and matching flavors.
