STILL MELTING IN THE SAME PLACE, THOUGH: The gourmeting of America has hit a new milestone — M&M’s have gone upscale.

Later this month Mars Snackfood US will launch M&M’s Premiums Chocolate Candies, a pricier and fancier version of the candy long known for melting in your mouth, not in your hands.

The candies, which sport mottled metallic-looking shells, come in five varieties — chocolate almond, mint chocolate, mocha, raspberry almond and triple chocolate.

Six-ounce packages of M&M’s Premiums Chocolate Candies are available nationwide for $3.99.
