Now, you may ask, "Why would I give my sweetie rice crispy treats for Valentine's Day!" First of all, they are called Mallow Munchies" and the reason why you would give her that is because it's a sweet thing to do! Love has its many incarnations, but one really nice part is the pure and innocent affection from a boy (or boy at heart) to his "best" girl.
Okay, enough with the love advice, here's what you should know about Mallow Munchies. They are unlike your traditional rice crispy treats because they are made with homemade marshmallows, made with all natural ingredients and no preservatives. Mallow Munchies, which is based out of the Baltimore, Maryland area, makes their munchies with toppings like Belgian chocolate and homemade caramel. They have a shelf-life of about one month and should be placed in the refrigerator, if not immediately eaten. Mallow Munchies recommends that before you eat the refrigerated munchies, you should let it sit in order "to reactivate their gooey, chewy goodness."
There's good news for those in the Maryland area—Nikiki Lewis, owner of Mallow Munchies, begins a new chapter in dessert bar history, opening up The Mallow Bar in Rosedale, Maryland—the first rice crispy treat cafe in the country. The Mallow Bar just had its soft opening in the beginning of February and will feature these Mallow Munchies as its flagship item, also serving other desserts as well as coffee and tea.
Here's a listing of the Mallow Munchies options:
- Original- the classic we all know
- Dipped Munchies- pure Belgian dark chocolate
- Toffe Nut Munch- with salted cashews and sweet toffee
- CaraMallow Munch- with handmade caramel
- Crunch Munch- popcorn and candy-coated chocolates

Mallow what? Mallow Munchies* are a delightful spin on rice crispy treats. I discovered these delicious little savories when I went to the Health Care for the Homeless Chocolate Affair in 2010 and boy oh boy was I surprised at how delicious it was. Mallow Munchies owner
