All About Hot Cocoa Bombs and Where to Buy Them in the Lehigh Valley

November 20, 2020

Hot Cocoa Bombs are the latest craze to sweep the internet, just in time for the chilly weather. If you haven't tried them yet, here's what you need to know. 

Hot Cocoa Bombs are little balls of chocolate filled with hot chocolate mix, marshmallows, sprinkles and more. When you drop them into a mug of hot milk, the chocolate melts and releases the surprises inside to create a delicious drink. They come in just about every flavor you can imagine, from traditional milk chocolate to peppermint to peanut butter and everything in between. And yes, some shops are even making special treats for adults. (Bailey Irish Creme bombs? Yes, please!)

Katie Cramsey, local mom and owner of Deadly Sweet Treats in Macungie, has created over 200 bombs she started offering them a month ago. "People absolutely love them! Not only are they delicious, but there’s that excitement of watching the shell melt and break open and the marshmallows and fun surprises pop out." 

Want to try them out with your family? There are lots of small businesses around the Lehigh Valley offering hot chocolate bombs.
