DECOR: Custom-Colored M&Ms

Now there's another way to match your dessert to your decor. M&M/Mars now sells its M&M candies in 21 hues that will melt in your mouth, not on your color-coordinated tablecloth. Available directly from the company by mail order, the candies--called M&M Colorworks--can be purchased in eight-ounce, five-pound or 40-pound bags of a single color, or in five-pound bags that are mixtures of two colors. With a little creativity, the M&Ms can be used to duplicate a corporate logo or other art--like at Target's Mossimo launch party, where red and white candies were arranged in the company's logo. --Samantha Melamed (Photo courtesy of M&M/Mars)
