There is something about a good chocolate-covered ice cream bar that just feels like summer. And Dove (the Mars, Inc. brand you have trusted for decades) just made that feeling a little sweeter.
The company has added a brand-new flavor to its popular line of miniature ice cream bars: Salted Caramel & Milk Chocolate Mini Ice Cream Bars. They launched earlier this year as a permanent offering, and stores across the country are now stocking them on shelves as warmer weather rolls in.
What Do They Taste Like?
According to Dove’s official product description, each bar layers creamy chocolate ice cream with rich salted caramel, all wrapped in a smooth Dove Milk Chocolate coating for what the brand calls a melt-in-your-mouth bite.
Shoppers who have already tried them are enthusiastic. One reviewer called them “the perfect size treat,” describing a chocolate hard shell with a satisfying crunch and soft, non-sticky caramel inside. Another said it is “like a perfect blend of sweetness and caramel.”
“These are perfection,” one fan wrote. “The caramel isn’t sticky or hard; it’s very soft and delicious. All four of my family members loved these.”
The new flavor currently holds a 4.8-star rating online.
Small Bars, but Plenty of Flavor
Each box holds 10 individually wrapped mini bars. They are roughly half the size of Dove’s full-size bars, about three bites each, reviewers say. And at 70 calories and 7 grams of sugar per bar, they are a treat you can enjoy without going overboard.
One reviewer put it nicely: “I love that I can have one or two and stay within my calorie goals. They’re so delicious, and I can’t wait to try other flavors.”
Dove also adds a little extra to each bar; every wrapper includes an original inspirational message. It is a small touch, but a sweet one.
Where Can You Find Them?
The new Salted Caramel & Milk Chocolate Mini Ice Cream Bars are available nationwide at most major grocery stores and retailers. You can also use Dove’s online product locator to find a store near you.
Whether you share them with the grandkids or keep a box in the freezer just for yourself, these little bites sound like one of the better treats of the season.
