The fire crackles, Crickets chirp, Marshmallows beg to be roasted to a toasty, golden brown. You may have guessed what we are talking about, maybe not. Said to be a contraction of the words ‘some’ and ‘more’, a S’more is a campfire treat popular in the United States, Mexico, and Canada. Known to be first eaten around the campfire at Scout camps as far back as the 1920s, S’mores are made up of Graham crackers sandwiched together with melted chocolate and marshmallows – traditionally melted over the campfire itself! This sweet, warm, gooey, delicious treat is an all-time favorite at fall parties and always leaves kids and adults wanting more so much so that over the years chefs, cafes, restaurants have all come up with various dessert innovations inspired by the flavor of the treat – s’mores cheesecakes, cookies, French toast and even Frappuccino’s. Go on, have s’more…!
