Red Bird Soft Peppermint Puffs Individually Wrapped 18 oz Tub — Melt-Away Texture, Pure Peppermint

Soft, melt-away peppermint puffs from Red Bird come individually wrapped in an 18 oz tub for easy sharing and long-lasting freshness.

These classic soft peppermint candies deliver a cool peppermint flavor with a smooth, creamy texture that dissolves on the tongue. Made in Lexington, North Carolina since 1890, Red Bird mints use simple ingredients like pure cane sugar and 100% peppermint oil, and they are free of corn syrup and preservatives. The red-striped candies are hand-finished, giving each piece a distinctive look while ensuring they’re suitable for a wide range of dietary needs.

What makes these Red Bird peppermint puffs different from hard mints?

Unlike hard mints that require crunching or prolonged sucking, these soft peppermint puffs have a tender, melt-away consistency that disappears smoothly on your tongue. They’re formulated for a gentle release of peppermint oil so the flavor feels balanced rather than overpowering.

• Soft, pillowy texture that melts, not chips or shards
• Even peppermint flavor from 100% peppermint oil
• Individually wrapped to preserve softness and hygiene
• Hand-striped pieces — slightly varied size and shape for a handmade look

How should I serve or store the 18 oz tub for events and daily use?

The tub is designed for convenience: keep it sealed at room temperature away from direct heat to preserve texture and flavor. For events, place wrapped mints in bowls or candy dishes; the individual wrappers make passing them out simple and sanitary.

• Resealable tub keeps mints fresher between servings
• Individual wrappers for easy, hygienic distribution
• Ideal for candy dishes, party favors, or tabletop bowls
• Store in cool, dry place to maintain soft texture
