About Candies, MARS SNACKFOOD US, M&M's Milk Chocolate Candies
M&M's are small buttons of milk chocolate inside a hard, brightly colored sugar shell — the coating famous for keeping the chocolate from melting in your hand. Because so much of each piece is that candy shell, M&M's are one of the more sugar-heavy chocolate candies, leaning sweet rather than rich.
Per 100 grams the plain milk-chocolate variety provides about 492 calories, roughly 64 grams of sugar and 21 grams of fat, with only a small amount of protein. A standard 1.69-ounce bag weighs about 48 grams, which comes to around 235 calories and roughly 30 grams of sugar — already past the daily added-sugar guideline for many adults.
The format is the appeal: they are easy to share, easy to portion and slow to melt, which is why they turn up in trail mix, on cookies and in dessert toppings. The peanut, almond and other filled versions swap some of that sugar shell for a nut center, which nudges the protein and fat up and the sugar down a little.
