MINNEAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The magic is back. That’s right – for the first time ever, Lucky Charms fans can now enjoy a pouch of magically delicious Just Magical Marshmallows. To celebrate the launch, Lucky Charms is surprising fans with a spectacular in the sky, in Los Angeles on Aug. 31 and New York City on Sept. 1… So, step outside or look out your window for a sign that’s sure to be magical!
Earlier this month, Lucky Charms’ famous marshmallow charms were mysteriously losing their magic, and the only hope in restoring them was to use the power of the special Lucky Charms song: “Hearts, Stars, and Horseshoes. Clovers and Blue Moons. Unicorns, Rainbows, and Tasty Red Balloons!” From coast to coast, families and superfans, including actress Tamera Mowry, came to the rescue, singing the melody and reviving the magic of the charms. Little did they know, they’d create a sound so powerful it would unlock a magical force never seen before – Just Magical Marshmallows!
Lucky Charms Marshmallow-Only boxes have been offered through popular promotions in the past, but this is the first time Just Magical Marshmallows are available for purchase nationwide at select retailers. The special 6 oz. pouch features all eight of your favorite charms and is currently available for a limited time, while supplies last, with a suggested retail price of $3.99. The Just Magical Marshmallows will become more widely available in September. Price and Promotion may vary.
“Lucky Charms is the only magical marshmallow cereal and I’m so excited to see that families across the country helped bring the magic back,” said Mindy Murray, senior brand experience manager for Lucky Charms. “To thank our fans for helping us restore this magic, we’re celebrating the launch of the Just Magical Marshmallows with a spectacle that embodies the magic of Lucky Charms.”
