TruMoo Chocolate Marshmallow milk is the perfect treat for the taste buds for every occasion. Enjoy it cold or "Try It Hot" for an instant hot chocolate drink with your favorite toppings, like mini marshmallows, whipped cream or a graham cracker rimmed glass. Whether it's served hot or cold, moms can be assured that TruMoo Chocolate Marshmallow Milk has the same nutritional benefits as original TruMoo including no high fructose corn syrup and no artificial growth hormones.
"TruMoo's success is built on the fact that moms can feel good about serving their kids delicious flavored milk without compromising on the quality and nutritional benefits of white milk," said Greg Schwarz, Vice President of Marketing, Dean Foods. "Because of this, we can have fun introducing new flavors like Chocolate Marshmallow for kids and adults to enjoy."
TruMoo, the nation's leading ready-to-serve flavored milks, is made with milk sourced from local dairies. Similar to regular milk, TruMoo provides eight essential nutrients: calcium, protein, vitamins A, D and B12, riboflavin, phosphorus and potassium. And, the most popular lowfat (1%) TruMoo only contains 140 calories per serving. That is only 30 more calories than lowfat white milk.
TruMoo Chocolate Marshmallow milk can be found in the dairy section at Target and other major retailers nationwide now and throughout the month of February. Regular TruMoo chocolate, vanilla and strawberry milk varieties are available year round in gallon, half gallon, quart and single serve (10-, 12-, 14- and 16-ounce) bottles.
