The new Tim Hortons S'mores collection is a mouthwatering way to celebrate the end of summer.
The collection includes a donut, a S'mores pocket treat and a S'mores 'Iced Cappuccino.' The donut is filled with marshmallow creme, dipped in chocolate fondant and topped with graham cracker crumble and mini marshmallows. The S'mores pocket is exceptionally delicious (especially warmed up) and the S'mores pocket is similar to a 'Nutella Pastry Pocket' from the Canadian coffee shop, but larger and filled with marshmallow creme and chocolate fudge.
S'mores certainly are a summer classic and Canadians are known to love epic campfires. A S'more-inspired treat can be difficult to get right as a QSR but the Tim Hortons S'mores collection hits the mark for quality and taste.
