Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory dipped a caramel apple in its first-ever miso caramel, finished one half in salted pretzel and left the other smooth, so the design mirrors Marinette turning into Ladybug. It's in exclusive Miraculous packaging, 250 per store, and the news landed September 16. Read it through the pack, and the apple itself is doing the labeling. A caramel apple usually sells on gloss and toppings, so shoppers read texture and color to guess what they're getting. Here the two finishes carry a meaning on purpose, one half rough with salted pretzel and one half smooth, set up so the object mirrors a character going from ordinary to hero. The red Miraculous box repeats the idea with the show's ladybug pattern, so the design reads on the shelf and in a photo before anyone tastes the miso caramel underneath.
On September 16, 2026, Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory announced a limited-edition Miraculous Miso Caramel Apple with Miraculous Corp. It's available from September 15 through October 31, 2026 while supplies last, with only 250 apples at each participating location, in exclusive Miraculous packaging.
The apple is finished two ways, one half in crunchy salted pretzel and one half left smooth to show the caramel. That half-and-half design takes its cue from Marinette's transformation into Miraculous Ladybug, the move from everyday to extraordinary, and the red Miraculous box repeats the show's ladybug pattern, so the object reads before you taste it.
It's the first miso caramel Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory has offered in its stores, a sweet and savory take with a salty edge. The flavor also taps a rising trend, with Yelp reporting searches for miso caramel up 107 percent year over year in its January 2026 tracker.
