Eillien's Candies Mini Malted Milk Balls
What it is
These are small, round candies featuring a crunchy malted milk center coated in a smooth, sweet chocolate shell. The malted milk provides a distinct, slightly savory flavor that complements the sweetness of the chocolate. They are designed to be bite-sized, making them easy to enjoy as a snack or as a component in various desserts. The texture offers a satisfying contrast between the crisp shell and the crumbly interior.
How people cook with it
These mini malted milk balls are versatile additions to both sweet and savory dishes. They can be enjoyed straight from the bag or incorporated into baking projects.

- Snack on their own
When baking, these candies can be added to cookie dough before baking for a delightful melt-in-your-mouth texture. For a decorative touch, they can be pressed into frosting on cakes and cupcakes. They also work well as a crunchy topping for milkshakes or as a simple, sweet treat to accompany coffee or tea. Their small size makes them ideal for distributing evenly throughout batters or as a decorative element on smaller baked goods.

How to keep the rest
To maintain freshness, store any remaining candies in their original packaging or an airtight container. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat to prevent melting or the chocolate from becoming chalky. Proper storage ensures they retain their intended texture and flavor for future enjoyment.
