Brach’s Ice Blue Mint Coolers are an enjoyable and effective candy mint. They are great for many reasons. Firstly, they are blue. It isn’t often that you get a peppermint candy in a translucent blue color, quite aesthetically pleasing. Secondly, they are individually wrapped.
Forget the tic tacs that make it sound like you have a maraca in your pocket. These are conveniently wrapped so that you can throw them into your purse or pocket and munch one down before your date or job interview. Thirdly, you definitely get more of a breath mint effect from the ice blue mint than from the Starbrite peppermint.
The Starbrite peppermint is tasty and sweeter than the blue ice, but it doesn’t give you the same minty cool breath that the blue mint coolers do. Not to say blue mints are so intense that it hurts your teeth just to breathe.
If you want a mint for the primary purpose of eating a candy, choose the Starbrite peppermint (which would also great plopped in a cup of hot chocolate). If you want a mint for the primary purpose of having a minty fresh breath, go with the blue coolers. Enjoy!

I am thoroughly disappointed to hear you are discontinuing
Brach’s Ice Blue Mints. They have been a personal favorite of mine for many, many years. Not to mention, a staple item in my business. My clients and I are very unhappy.
Please reconsider your position on this.
Sincerely,
John W. Glessner
Is there any way that you could start making these ice blue mints again? They are the ONLY mints worth eating because they are so strong. The altoid mints are way to strong and are not enjoyable to eat unlike the ice blues, so I heavily petition that you bring these back. They are an absolute favorite to leave at church for the rest of the congregation to use when they need a mint. Please, Please get them back. Thanks!

We are also very disappointed in the discontinuation of Brach’s Ice Blue Mints. If it were up to us, we would still be selling them. However, Brach’s decided to stop making the Ice Blue Mints so I would suggest petitioning them to bring back such a delicious mint. Thank you for your passionate plea!
Please rethink discontinuing this wonderful mint. Since they helped get me through quitting smoking long ago, they have been a steady companion. I just love them. I used to keep a jar full on my desk. Down to my last 3: (

I find your decision to discontinue ice blue mints a great mistake. There is nothing on the market that comes close to these blue babies! Please reconsider and you won\’t be sorry.
Thanks
I agree that there is nothing else that comes close to the flavor of the Brach’s Ice Blue Mints! If it were up to us, we would still be selling them. However, Brach’s decided to stop making the Ice Blue Mints so I would suggest petitioning them to bring back such a delicious mint. Thank you for your passionate plea!
I have used brach’s Ice Blue Mints for more than 20 years, and I would miss them terribly if you don’t consider making them again. As a business man, I don’t quite understand why you have decided to discontinue manufacturing them. If they sell well, then continue making them!!!.
I too relied heavily on the Ice Blue’s when quitting smoking. I am still very shaky having only quit in January.
I would order 2-3 bags thru Candy Favorites every time I ordered, and now have been reduced to cleaning out every coat/jacket/purse, etc. I found about 25 and have been saving them for those moments when I really, really want a smoke.
Please don’t pull my ice blue rug out from under me.
Congratulations on quitting smoking!! We truly wish we could continue to carry Brach’s Ice Blue Mints. However, for some reason that is alluding us, Brach’s decided to stop making them. Since there have been so many people who miss these magnificent mints, we will contact Brach’s and attempt to persuade them to bring the Ice Blue Mints back.
There was just no comparison between the Mint Coolers and Starbrite peppermints. The mint coolers last much longer and dont fall apart as they disolve. I just can’t believe that you would discontine the best mint hard candy that I have experienced. I just wish I had discovered this a month or two ago when I could still order them. Very disappointed.
We are also dissapointed that Brach’s decided to discontinue Ice Blue Mints. We have received so many complaints about it, we thought it would be best to try to find out why from the manufacturer (which now is Ferrara who bought Brach’s last year). This is the email reply we received back from Ferrara Candy:

I hope this will help you understand what is happening with the Ice Blue Mints.
Why Brach’s elected to discontinue this awesome and refreshing candy is a mystery. Let’s hope some other candy company can replace what Brach’s has tossed aside!
I’m really upset your discontinuing the ice blue mint. A lot of my friends and I simply love these mints. I can’t find a mint anywhere else that is even close to it. I personally don’t have a problem paying a little more money for it and I am sure the people who really love this mint would either. One of my friends from Georgia even comes to Illinois and buys 2 big bags full to take back home with her. I myself and lots of other people would really wish you would not discontinue this product.
I will truly miss the ice blue mint coolers! I wasn’t able to find them where I live so my son sent me 10 pounds at a time from his state. It is the only hard candy I enjoy and wish they were still available. I often wonder why stores didn’t stock the blue mints along with the other varieties? They were hard to find.
I really loved the ice blue mint coolers so much, I would buy 2-4 pounds at a time. In fact, I still have some. However, if brachs can’t give their customers what they want, I will no longer buy any of brachs candies.
I want to say how very disappointed we are that you are no longer providing Ice Blue mint coolers. They have been our favorite for many years. They have also been my candy of choice when I quit smoking. They are still my husbands now while he is trying to quit smoking. He is not going to be happy at all. Please reconsider putting them back on the market.
I am so disappointed that Brach’s is not continuing to manufacture the Ice Blue Mint Coolers. I depend on this mint to get me through the day. Nothing else compares. Please reconsider. There are many of us who would be willing to pay more than the price of an average candy for this very special item.
I always wondered why Brachs stopped putting the ice blues in those candy bins at the grocery stores. They were always sold out, and there were tons of other candies that no one wanted.
Not very good business sense to STOP the most popular item, is it? Doesn’t Ferrara want to be successful??? Guess not.
I don’t think I want to do business with a company that makes such bad business decisions.
These have a very nostalgic feel to me since my grandparents used to give them to us when we were kids. Please resume production.
I’m truly disappointed in your decision to discontinue production of the Ice Blue mints, as they are a favorite of mine and have enjoyed them for a great many years. I would like to take this opportunity to make a request that you bring back the mints that have brought refreshing enjoyment to so many for so long. Thank You. Your once lifelong friend.
So disappointed to hear Brach\’s is discontinuing Ice Blue Mint Coolers. I have been buying them for years and since they have been hard to find in stores, I started ordering 7lb bags online over 7 years ago.
I am so upset that blue mints have been discontinued. They are the only candy I eat. I know I\’ve bought them for at least 30 years. When they stopped selling them in stores, I started ordering on line many years ago. Everyone always asks me for a blue mint. I think if Brach\’s put them back in the stores, they would find that they would be a best seller again. Bad marketing from many years ago has caused them to discontinue these gems. Sad, sad day. Please reconsider your decision.
Last weekend I was cleaning out an old purse and found 3 ice blues. I made them last all day.
I also broke down and ordered the “other” little blue mint from your website. Disappointing to say the least. Each one tastes different, and none of them are even close to the ice blue flavor.
Wish there was some entrapaneuer out there who could afford to buy the rights/recipe for ice blues and get them back in our candy dishes.
My Dad always had a crystal container of Ice Blue Mints on the Kitchen Counter
I have followed in that tradition
It is a sin and crime to discontinue the best mint ever
Why is it that when you make something that is really good and everyone really likes them and you sell alot of them, like the Ice Blue Mints you decide to discontinue making them, what’s up with that? You need to start making the Ice Blue Mints AGAIN, I have been buying them for years, they are the best mints that I have ever had. LISTEN TO YOUR CUSTOMERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So sorry to read that you are no longer selling Ice Blue Mints. I have ordered them many times in the past and consider them the best mints I’ve tried in the past. I note that others would appreciate your bringing them back, as well!
PLEASE reconsider. Best mint ever.
I am so disappointed to hear my ice blue mints have been discontinued. They are part of a very special memory with my grandparents, and my grandmother just passed. I have been searching for a bag for about 3 weeks, just because my heart is broken and I want some in her memory, only to find that they no longer exist. Nothing else is the same as these, and the memory is very important to me. PLEASE RECONSIDER YOUR POSITION! Not only is this a candy for me, but also a part of my life! I share them with my children and now grandchildren in the same way as my grandmother shared them when we were very small, and to me it is as if another part of my life just slipped away. The story is long and the memory strong, just like the refreshingly strong flavor of the Ice Blue Mints ( better known in our family as Blue Lake mints) HEARTBROKEN
I to feel the same as all the people above, about the ice blue mints. They helped me to Quit smoking and I have enjoyed them ever since. There is nothing on the market that I have found that even comes close. I hope they will reconsider and start making them again.
I am so disappointed that the Ice Blue Mints have been discontinued. I have a very serious cough and have found that these mints are the only thing that will clear up my head and help keep me from coughing. Cough drops don’t do the trick at all and neither do the Starbrite Peppermints, but the icy mints are wonderful. I use them at the Symphony, the opera, during church, and during any event in which I which to avoid coughing. Please, please reconsider. Nothing else is as effective, and if you have any hidden back somewhere, may I please purchase them for health reasons?
Thank you for giving this opportunity to request a change or heart.
My husband only eats this candy I have been ordering for years. Please reconsider. This is the only candy made that smells good, leaves a fresh scent on the breath, and last a long time
We are sorry to announce that Brachs Ice Blue Mint Coolers have been DISCONTINUED …….
WHY – WHY – WHY …… What ever happen to supply and demand????????
When they were on the shelf I had trouble finding them at
the commissary, Fort Lee VA
I to am disappointed that you are discontinuing Ice Blue mint coolers. I always carry some in my pocket to help me with a dry mouth condition. They are the best medicine.
I have enjoyed the ice blue coolers for years! They are so refreshing! Please bring them back!
I never am without 2 or 3 ice blues in my pocket whether at work, a ballgame, or sitting in church. Friends and family know they can depend on me to have a ‘stash’ of ice blues. There are NO substitutions! One ice blue lasts a whole church service unlike starburst (red and white) that melt to fast. I have been enjoying them since they were introduced.
Sorry to hear this. This mint has helped my husband in his effort to stop smoking. ,,,very disappointed…
I opened this site to check and ask where I could find Ice Blue since could not find it in stores anymore which drove me crazy, to find out just today it was discontinued.
SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO disappointed as I used it as my savior to some problem I have and to ease up my breathing instead of medicine which I don’t like! I had a bunch in every purse, in coat and jacket pockets, nightstand, in the car, everywhere.
I don’t think I will ever replace this wonderful CANDY that I loved, and can’t do without!!!!!!!!!!
Please Please PLEASE bring it back.
MJ
Just checking back to see if anything new has been done about our little Ice Blue Mints.
But, as I see, we are still being ignored.
So, I guess in the eyes of Brachs, the customer is NEVER right.
What a bunch of idiots to discontinue a proven product with a built-in consumer base. Very bad business practices.
Do they also just throw money out of windows??
WHY OH WHY!!!!!! I have bought ice blue coolers for years and years and years. I have used them as cough drops rather than the medicinal drops. They are just absolutely delicious. You MUST bring them back. OH PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.
You’ve got to be kidding! A product as good as Ice Blues and Brachs decides to discontinue. They need to seriously rethink their manufacturing and marketing strategies. Bring the Ice Blues back.
I find your decision to discontinue ice blue mints a great mistake. There is nothing on the market that comes close to these blue babies! Please reconsider and you won\’t be sorry.
Thanks
Jeff Hedgepath
Please, please bring these back. I love them and try to always buy them when I find them.
My son loves your mints and has for over 20 years. He is always asking for them when we go to Meijers. The store that carries them near us. Please put them back in your line. He will be very upset. It is his very favorite candy.Please bring them back for my favorite and only son.
SHOCK!! I’ve personally used Ice Blues for over 20 years. Kept getting harder and harder to find. Now discontinued all together. Shared them on the tables of every class I taught as well. Now my candy jar will stand empty on my desk.
I can not believe that you will no longer make this candy. It is my very favorite and am disappointed in knowing I can not have any more. So my favorite Bible verse is Romans 12:12. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction and faithful in prayer. Sure goes along with even a piece of candy. I hope you bring int back, I’m sorry I can’t have, and I will pray for the company to bring it back! Have a blessed day and have a blessed and joyful day from Virginia
I have gone every where for the brach’s ice blue mints for over a year. They were not only breath mints but soothed my finicky stomach. I always had a bowl of the ice blue mints on my desk @ work. People loved them vs the Starbust. Please remake. Also the blue cube mints,,,are they as good? Are these as minty as the ice blue mints?
I have Crohn’s decease & suffer with nausea (alot) I have found that mint helps with that so that I don’t have to take the drugs. The Brach’s Ice Blue mint was the best mint to help me ( & I have tried probably most out there so I know) please bring them back, PLEASE
I want to add my disappointment in Ice Blue Mint coolers being cancelled. Perhaps if they had been more available, more would have been sold.
The cool minty taste is unparalleled. This is one of the few mints that has a dye that does not cause me to wheeze as red dues do. I am allergic to chocolate and red dyes. The blue mints provide an alternative to the allergens in other candies. I hope you will listen to the pleas of those who truly loved these mints, and that those comments move you to reinstate the wonderful icy blue mint candies to the shelves of stores everywhere.
I hate it that you have D Cd the ice blues I ve loved them for years if you ever start makin them again please please send me an email
I am disappointed beyond belief to learn that you are discontinuing my FAVORITE mint. NOTHING compares to it. Please, please, please reconsider.
When I was receiving Chemo…. Brach’s blue ice mints were the only thing that removed the metallic taste. I have given them to every friend and family member cursed with undergoing chemo….I am crushed that I can not help my family member who needs these…. please start making them again
I love this candy and have bought it the base commissary for many years. Please bring it back it is one of a kind. Will miss it greatly. Surely you realize a great many of us are long time customers.
I loved Ice Blue Coolers. I bought them by the 5 pound bag. Please reconsider this bad decision.
The discontinuation of the Ice Blue Mint Cooler is a huge disappointment.
Please bring back the Ice Blue Mint coolers. These were one of the only candies without aspartame or sucralose these days.
The Ice Blue mints are the only candy I eat and are a long time favorite of mine and my family.
The best most flavorful mint candy to be had anywhere! And you decide to discontinue it! Makes absolutely no sense. Say you don’t make money, but at 4 something a pound how can you say that? There is no comparing this mint to the starlike mint, that’s like apple and oranges. No comparison! I just ask you to rethink what you have done by not having this candy. Many people and I mean many by this product, yet you say not enough buyers, again, Really! Rethink this, please bring back the best mint ever!!!!!!
We convinced Brach’s to make an exclusive batch of Ice Blue Mints for us, so go and stock up NOW before they’re gone for good! http://www.candyfavorites.com/brachs-ice-blue-mint-coolers
Please bring back the wonderful Ice Blue Mints.
Brach’s made a batch just for us and we have a limited supply in stock now. Go buy some now before they’re gone for good!
Please bring back the wonderful Ice Blue Mints. I have enjoyed them for years.
Brach’s made a batch just for us and we have a limited supply in stock now. Go buy some now before they’re gone for good!
Now I know why I am having such a hard time finding these mints!!!! Totally disappointed that they are being discontinued!! Please reconsider!
REALLY hoping there will be a reconsideration of the decision to no longer make the blue mints!!!
We have them in stock right now!
These are the best mints in the world. I depend on them when I am calling a square dance to keep my mouth moist. Please do not discontinue them.
BRING THEM BACK!!!!!
Do not discontinue these wonderful mints!! I have been buying them in the 5 lb. bags for years, and would be lost without them. No other mint comes close! Why stop making such a popular item? It doesn’t make any sense. The Starburst mints don’t come close in flavor or enjoyment. Seriously! Listen to your customers.
Brach’s has had the best hard candy for a very long timePeppermint, spearmint, cinnamon disc, and butterscotch.They also had the best hard mint candy with the blue mints.It is a shame to lose the best of anything. Hoping they will reconsider.
Please bring back the ice blue mints, they are very good.
Very disappointed that these are no longer available. Please reconsider and restart production!
Ditto all the above!
Please reconsider your decision to no longer manufacture the best mints on the market “Ice Blue Mints”
Thanks a lot, I do not smoke, I do not drink BUT you got me addicted to the Ice Blue Mints and now you cut me off, I have tried other mints and candy but they are not the same they do not satisfy the craving. My friends who also love them are very upset, they search my house every time they visit. How much more can they cost to produce? Streamline your production line.
Please bring them back! They are the best! Listen to what your customers want!
What a huge disappointment that you’ve stopped making these great mints. I realllllllllly wish you’d reconsider and bring them back…PLEASE!!!!!
These mints bring back so many memories. These mints should be stock at all Wal Mart. I know they would make a bundle.
Brach Ice Blue Mints had been my go-to candy for 45 years! Miss them, have searched every store in my area for the last few years, with no luck I ordered them by the 5lb case from a candy distributer…paid 4 times the suggested retail price! Twice! Please consider the longtime customers and bring them back! Also, you had the best malted milk balls, no longer able to find them either!
I’m so disappointed that Brachs quit making the Ice Blue Mint Coolers I have made a conscious effort NOT to buy ANY Brachs products. I’m sure they don’t care. Some boss see’s that their not selling a zillion of them anymore and that’s it.
The ONLY MINT that I have eaten for more then 30years and
I put one in my mouth everytime I leave the house for a clean fresh breath……………
Ice Blue Mints are a must to have! Please, do not discontinue their availability. If you must, I would appreciate purchasing additional bags. SAD news! For sure! Why does this need to happen?
Brachs ice blue mints were far better than their star brites. Cool blue mints were very refreshing. The star brites are nothing but ordinary peppermints.
I called Customer service today to order more, I didn’t see them on their page. So disappointed that they are discontinued. They are our favorites in this family. I buy 4 bags at a time..guess I will have to savor each one. Hope they bring them back.
I suspected these were being discontinued as they were getting so hard to find. I went to the Brach’s website and found they were discontinuing them. I am so disappointed and have stocked up on them. No other mints compare to the Ice Blue Mints. They keep my breath fresh for a very long time. Please don’t discontinue them!
why on earth would they discontinue something that was so enjoyable by so many people!!!!!!! This is really sad an ashame!!! Will really miss have the joy of one of the best hard candies I ever had!!!!!!
very disappointed the blue mints were the best i loved them more than the starbrite they are more mintie and everything i want the blue mints back
please bring back the Brachs Ice Blue Mnts. this is the only candy my husband will eat and ordered them in the 6 lb bg. when one bag was half though would place an order for a new 6 lb . he is currently in the last bag please reconsider and bring back the Ice Mints. we are begging if that helps. Judy Ayers Virginia Beach Virginia
Please bring back the ice blue mint coolers. My father-in-law loves them and it would be such a shame if he could no longer have them. My husband likes them too. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I would be so happy if brach’s would reconsider.
These are the only mints my dad ever used and now we cannot find them anywhere for him. Please, please, please reconsider and bring them back on the market!!
Bring them back, pronto!
I cannot find them anywhere. Brach’s please bring them back!
Enjoyed them for years. please bring them back
Please bring these mints back!!! They are the absolute best mints and have been searching for them forever!! Very disappointing
Im so terribly disappointed my all time favorite mints have been discontinued. My grandfather gave me these mints when I was a little girl 30+ years ago) and I have been eating them ever since. I looked and searched everywhere for them. Please, please reconsider and make them again. I am truley heartbroken over this.
I looked and looked for these candies. The Navy Exchange use to have them all the time. Very disappointed when they no longer had them in the Brach’s Bins. Now I find out that they no longer make them. WOW! What a let down. PLEASE bring them back!
the best candy in the world. you haven’t been leaving a sample of it in major stores nor have you been trying to sell it, because it sells itself when it is available. please bring it back toute-suet.
I have spent the last few years hunting for your Ice Blue mints, and its like participating in a scavenger hunt. When i was a little girl one of the church members would give me one if I sang or said my speech without reservation. I still call it the church candy. Now I’m on the other side of that candy and would love to have Ice Blue Mints to give out. They were and still are the best. Please think about it, after all its also a patriotic color!!
I am so upset that I can not findicate these blue mints anymore..I have eaten them for over 20 years
.when I feel naseous they are the only things that calms my tummy..I have been trying other peppermint candies and they do not do the trick like these blue mints do..even the square blue mints don’t do it.please bring these back!!!
Please bring these back! My mom is literally freaking out. These are her favorite candies and have been for over 30 years. Help an old lady out.
DISCONTINUED!! I’m crushed! These are the memories of my Mother that passed away. I asked everyone what they wanted that reminded them OD Mom. Everyone requested one of her candy dishes with the ice blue mints candies. She ALWAYS had only Brach’s ice blue mints candies. The starbrites wouldn’t be the same. Thoroughly disappointed! Please bring them back! Give it a try Brach’s, what can it hurt. Seems like many people want them back.
We too are disappointed! We have reached out to Brach’s on numerous occasions but they have not responded. We encourage consumers to reach out to them as well as if enough people complain, they might just listen…
Please bring these back! My father loves these candies! They are so refreshing
Very upset about this and also in my area in Ohio difficult to find the butterscotch and green starlight, upset about that as well brachs candies have been a continued tradition in our family
Please reconsider the discontinuation of your ice blue mints. They are the only mints my pastor and the ministers at my church like. We cannot find anything remotely close that provide the same freshness/coolness to your mouth. Because they are a disc, they are easier to suck on and don’t make you look like you are sucking on a big boulder. Again, please reconsider.
I was heart broke & Extremely disappointed to find out today that Brachs will no longer be makeing the ice blue mints what a shame!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have bought them every since I was a child & when sick those helped me better than Throat Lodgins or cough drops. I’m a mint lover & those were #1 in my book, the very best ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please!!, please!!, please!!, please bring them back!!!!!!!!!!! If you can’t tell I’m begging you brach’s to bring back that awesome mint that has been around forever. “HOPE YOU HEAR ALL THE WORLD THAT’S ASKING BRACH’S TO BRING BACK THE ICE BLUE MINT VERY DISAPPOINTED ENOUGH NOT TO BUY BRACHS CANDY AGAIN!!!!!!!” Donna Smith
Blue Ice Mints have been my favorite for over 50 years !!! PLEASE bring them back !!!
Please bring the ice blue mint candy back. I really liked it.
Even with my the World Wide Web I can’t find anything that comes close to my beloved Ice blue mint coolers. I’m so heartbroken that such a beloved candy is not being made anymore. These are disturbing times, watching the news is nothing but doom and gloom. As time goes by it seems there is very little that can make a person happy. Sweets are the answer. Everyone loves or at least likes sweets. Ice blue mint coolers are the answer for peace and harmony in my life. The powerful taste, not too sugary. C’mon man, bring them back. I’m sure the people will pay the crazy shipping prices just to have a mint and a smile. I’m serious. Please submit a valid reason for discontinuing the mint or provide the recipe.
Thank you brachs for taking away a cherished childhood memory as well as my favorite snack.
I too miss brachs blue mints Please bring them back the satellites taste awful, I will stop buying your products plus I do ordering for a big box store
Come on Brachs, have a heart! This is the best candy for old folks like me. I use them to keep me awake when driving as well as a great breath freshener for church on Sunday morning. Let’s get these things back on the market. You have no idea what a void you have left in my life!!! Love Brach’s Ice Blue Mint Coolers…
Please, please get them back in our stores!!!
Seriously, still waiting for these to come back! Hello brachs!!!
Please bring then back! Cool mints and cinnamon disks were our two staples on 20 hour car rides down south every summer. They are two of my favorite hard candies! I’m a die hard Brach’s fan and other’s cool mints just don’t stack up.
I am heartbroken that your Ice Blue Mints have been discontinued. I have been searching all over looking for these mints. These are better than any other. Please bring them back. Discontinue something else.
Please bring back the Ice Blue Mints. I have been searching all over looking for these mints. They are the better than any other. I am very disappointed.
Please, I am begging Brach’s o bring back the blue mint cooler.
Why! Why! Why! Why did you discontinue the ice blue mint candies????? PLEASE PLEASE bring them back!!!! They also work great as cough drops ! They must sell great , why did you stop selling them ???
Unfortunately, the manufuacturer decided to stop making them. Why, we may never know…
My mom always had these mints in a jar. Everyone in the family loved them. My mom is gone now and not having these mints makes me feel so bad I cannot have a piece of my memory of her back. Please bring them back.
My mom always had these mints in a jar. Everyone in the family loved them. My mom is gone now and not having these mints makes me feel so bad I cannot have a piece of my memory of her back. Please bring them back.
When I was younger, my parents would take me to the doctor, these mints were given to bribe me to take shot. The shot still hurt but I got some good candy. As I grew older, I found out they were perfect for breath freshening. Please bring this candy back. To discontinue something as popular as this makes no since!
Indeed! Why they discontinued this product remains one of the great mysteries!
Why were they discontinued this is the best candy ever I have to subsitute for mints that I don’t even like please please bring them back I when I quit smoking this is what I picked up please pleas bring them back
Please reconsider bringing the Ice Blue mint back. They have been my favorite mint for many years. I could only suck one for a minutes before chewing it. My brother in law loved peppermints (any old peppermints) until turned onto the blue mints, he became hooked. We started buying them for each other until we couldn’t find them anymore. Then he started buying peppermints, it wasn’t a trade off, that’s where I started before ice blue. Please bring them. I want surprise with a bag. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Loyal Ice Blue Fan
I absolutely love the blue mints! Please bring them back. I’m really disappointed that they’re discontinued.
Hello Brach
I hope you are noticing the large group of disappointed customers who want you to sell these ice blue mints. With all these loyal customers wanting them seems like all you need to do is repack and remarket them to a wider group to ha e a winner again. Introduce them to the young ones and you will have new customers. I can see the ads with Grandparents sharing with grand children.
Please bring the Ice Blue Mints back. They ate a favorite of mine and I absolutely love them! I used to purchase them all the time and then they became harder to find. I used to buy them from local grocery stores in my home town (New Orleans) and they stopped carrying them. One day I found them in Rite Aide and I was so happy then all of those stores started closing down. Please bring them back and make them easy to purchase again!
PLEASE BRING THESE BACK PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ILL BUY THEM ALL COME ON PEOPLE….
My husband has been buying these blue mints since he was a kid. IT was the first kind of candy his father gave him, & he has since passed away. So disappointed I can’t buy these mints for him any longer. They brought back good memories every time he had one.
I’m so sad , these are my absolute most favorite mints.
Myself along with many others have stormed various stores, trying to find these candies with no luck, most young kids that work at stores now, don’t even know what we are talking about, please bring them back.
Usually I do not reply to things like this….but I am truly upset that you have stop making the blue mints just when I am on a roll with buying them then I can’t find them …..I have gum problems and I need something in my mouth to cut down on the smell these work wonders please please please bring them back
Please please please These blueints are my absolute favorite I’m begging please please please please bring them back😩😩😩😩😩😩
Bring these back as I have looked for these many places.
They are my all time favorite and I used to get 2 bags at a time.
I would love to see brachs bring back blue ice candy they are no of the few candies that I enjoy. once in a while when I am in Maine I can find them in a country store. But it is becoming harder and harder to find
We sure you sentiments! The product has been discontinued for many years and any tat you woud find would be long past the expiration date! They were one of the best sellign items of all time and we can’t fathom why they were discontinued!
I have been looking for these mints every where. Ugh please bring them back asap! They are the top sellers why wouldn’t the company want to sell them?
I have enjoyed these candies since childhood. Over the years they have gotten harder, and harder to find. You can buy regular mints anywhere, but are not the same, the blue mints are a lot better, more intense and flavorful. I tried another brand and was disappointed it wasn’t the same. It may seem like such a small thing, but a lot of wholesome snakes we enjoyed as childern has been replaced by garbage! It would be great to be able to buy these mints again, even if only o n line. Thank you
Why would you discontinue something that is such a big seller?
All through growing up i could snitch a mint out of my grandmothers purse. She recently said she was getting low on these. So came online as i have bewn able to find them in stores. This is a big disappointment. But understand they had more mint and less sugar. To where ypu don’t need to eat 3 to make up for 1 of the ice blue. but from a consumer standing, they may want to reconsider their choice.
I remember growing up and using these mints to help me, my daughter is having the same issue and have been looking for them everywhere. I wondered why I couldn’t find them. I read that it was a cost issue… maybe they need to let customers know the price before they make it so we know how expensive they would be and see if we would still buy… maybe even do a pre order and only agree to making them if they had so many orders!!!
I would order them no matter the cost. They are really special, and I think others would buy them as well. Why don’t you give it a try?
Okay, within reason. Why would you discontinue a loved candy and one so popular?
I know they are expensive, but why not charge a little more and see how they are received? Wayne Gretzky, perhaps the greatest hockey player ever, said, “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take!” What do you have to lose????
Please don’t discontinue these mints! It is a pasttime favorite of mine. My grandma had these when I was a child and I remember her dish of blue ice when I’d walk into her living room. (I’m 52 now so that tells you how long ago they’ve been around for me.)
It’s been my mother’s traditional gift twice a year. Birthday and Christmas she’s definitely disappointed.
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE BRING THESE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!
You’ve GOT TO reinstate the ice blue mint!! Golly!! Just look at the response of multitudes of people!
My Dad always had a full supply of these.. which made them a favorite for all of us; including grandchildren and great grandchildren! We’ve been searching high and low for them and cannot believe that you would eliminate such a well loved, nostalgic product! 😐 Please! Brach’s is in the outs w/ our family until we see the resurrection of the ice blues!!!!!
Add my name to the list. It’s become so annoying to find items that work and they become discontinued.
The list grows longer! Why Brach’s discontinued this beloved candy remains one of life’s great mysteries.
I’d like these back, please. Swapping between these and root beer barrels was the only thing that let me cut down on my smoking. My stress levels are through the roof nowadays & the habit is becoming expensive. Please, bring these back. : (
There are 5 people in our family alone that loved these mints! We have tried to find them everywhere and have not had any luck!!!
I love them blue mints,u need to bring them back. I’ve looked for them everywhere and no luck! I loved them when I was a child and I’m 57yrs young love to have them now!
My grandma my dad’s mom used to have them when we would go visit when we were younger and she was a smoker so the icy blue mints helped alot and they also vlear you’re sinuses out when stuffy. So it is a memory from my childhood. So please bring them back
From your mouth to the manufacturer’s ears! Ice Blue mint Coolers were probably the most sought after product that we offer and were the FIRST product we sold when we launched our website in 1998!
Short and sweet . . . Bring Brach’s Blue Mints back . . . Pretty Please! Loved them since “forever.”
I’ve been searching for the ice blue mints and just found out they are discontinued. Extremely disappointed. Great memories of my grandmother having them in her purse as she’d share with me every Sunday at church. I was hoping to share with my kids. Best mint ever.
No doubt, they were one of the best mints ever and were the first product we sold on CandyFavorites.com. They were also our best selling item for many years running.
Please bring these back.. I need them .. I love them!!! There is nothing else in the world like these!! Please ??
Please bring them the Branch’s Ice Blue Mint Candy!!!
Amen to that request!!
Please, Please, pretty Please……….bring back the original Ice Blue Mint Candy!!!!! I can’t find another mint that is so satisfying to the palette. It sooths my heartburn too……… PLEASE!!!!
Please please bring back your iceblue mints. They have been My favorite hard candy mint since I was little!!
Please bring back the ice blue mint coolers. They are the best mint hands down. Nothing even comes close, and I have tried to find another. Why would you discontinue something that is so loved? I know it is just a candy, but we have to have some sort of pleasure in these crazy times!!!
My brother and I used to grab handfuls of these at a restaurant called Mi Cocina. We only went there once or twice a year. We loved watching and playing Pokemon, and the mints where perfect shape and color to match a thing called rare candy. It is very nostalgic for us. I found a place that sold the mints, only to find it was a scam. Please bring back the mints. Many believe it is a diamond and to be honest, I want some while I’m stuck in quarantine (my house).
Please allow me to express my frustration. I have been trying to jog my memory for YEARS about the brand and name of this candy. The only thing I could remember was the flavor, every single blue candy wrapper has not compared to THIS right here. I FINALLY on my google dive once again trying to find this candy, find this article to tell me it’s discontinued. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME !!!!!!! Sudbdhendbuduegebefd dbdidbdvdb
I———- -___- pls send help.
Please bring these blue mints back!!! They are my absolute favorite mint.
I really love the Ice Blue Mints! They are the best mints ever! I have purchased pounds over the years. I really miss them. I often shared them with the elderly women at my church.
PLEASE bring back your Brach’s ICE BLUE MINTS they are the ONLY THING THAT HELPS when my Gastric Esophageal Reflux is bad in the middle of the night. I have been unable to find another peppermint candy that can help/ compare. I am begging you to PLEASE BRING BRACH’S ICE BLUE MINTS BACK!!! Over the last few years I have been slowly/sparing using my last few pieces of this wonderful candy. I don’t know what I am going to do when they are gone. I only have 5 pieces left. Once again I am begging you to PLEASE BRING BRACH’S ICE BLUE MINTS BACK!!! Thank you.
We should flood their Instagram page.
It wouldn’t be such a bad idea. Ice Blue Mints were one of the best selling items of all times and we haven’t a clue as to why they were discontinued. Trust me, if they returned to the market, they would be a huge hit!
If ever there was a time to bring Brach’s Ice Blue Mints back, it is now. One of these gems in a cup of hot tea or a cup of hot toddy is better than any cold and flu, sinus, or migraine medication that can be purchased over the counter. Think about it. According to the expert’s predictions, this year’s flu season coupled with the COVID-19 is going to be rough and from my personal experience, I would choose Brach’s Ice Blue Mints everytime over prescription medications with their multiple side effects. Please bring Brach’s Ice Blue Mints back, even if only for a limited time (meaning, long enough for all of feening for them to replenish our stashes 😉). Please and thank you. 🙏
What we would give for Ice Blue Mints to return. Like so many Brach’s candy classics of yesteryear, these have been discontinued much to the chagrin of candy lovers around the world!
We really need this ice blue mint brought back. I have some stomach issues and sometimes this mint is what helps. Please bring this back.
Please bring these back! I was searching for them for a gift for my dad. He hasn’t had them in so long but I always remember him having them around as a child.
Oh my gosh…I am just now discovering that the Brach’s Ice Blue Mints have been discontinued as I have inherited my mom’s Fenton Candy dish. I had hoped to fill it again with those AMAZING mints as a tribute to her and happy childhood memories of Mom’s treat. I am so sad that the decision to discontinue production of these has occurred. PLEASE bring them back.
It’s just another disappointing discovery in 2020-21. Those Mints were so special to many.
When you have something that works and is very popular you don’t discontinue it. I am very sorry this is the course you have taken. From what I have seen people have been petitioning since 2014 to no avail. I guess this comment will be a waste of time.
Why were they even discontinued they were the best candy on the whole planet? Please please bring them back I mean you still make candy anyways. Why is it so hard to bring them back?
My wife loved the Brachs Blue Mints. No other brand compares. Please bring them back.
Please bring them back…..Pretty PLEASE!
The Brach’s ice blue mint coolers are the absolute best. Please bring them back! We stocked up when they discontinued but we are almost out. Time to start making more please.
I loved the blue mints, can’t find them even at the antique variety stores online. I don’t know anybody who did not like them!
PLEASE ….PLEASE …..PLEASE bring back Brach’s Ice Mint Blue coolers! I used to eat them with my grandma over 40 years ago! It was a great memory and candy she shared with me. Please reconsider.
PLEASE, bring your Blue Crystal Mints back! I don’t crave sweets, but I absolutely loved having Blue Crystal Mints. I would always have them on-hand for blood sugar drops or just to fill a sweet craving.
I have looked everywhere, but was So disappointed to find out they were discontinued. Seriously? What are you thinking?
Again, PLEASE, bring them back! Apparently, there are plenty of requests for them.
Thank you for your time, and Happy Holidays!
Please bring back Brach’s ice blue mint candy. I have eaten them many times in the past fifty years. My great Aunt had them for us as kids. So sad I am told they are no longer. Please bring them back!
This is my favorite candy. I am disappointed by the decision made to discontinue this product. I hope that you will bring it back soon.
Please make the mints again…they are the best…BRACHS you are losing money
PLEASE, BRACH’S… bring back SPARKLES & the ICE BLUE MINTS! I’ve been looking for them for the least 2 years.
Just last week I got excited because I thought I found a replacement (Beacon Sparkles from South Africa). I paid a king’s ransom to get them shipped to the US, but I really wanted them. They just arrived about an hour ago and while the flavors aren’t bad (better than Matlow’s), the texture, size, and mouth feel are a miss.
I have always loved the Ice Blue Mints, but now I need them. I had some saved up, but they are gone. I have severe dry mouth, eyes, and everything else. Medical products make my tongue sore, so I use mints in the daytime. Please resume making the blue mints, then let me know where I can get them. I am begging you. Thanks
859-404-3471
We wish they would come back but I don’t think it is going to happen as Brach’s is a company that will soon be no longer as they have discontinued almost all of their products! Sad, very sad!
PLEASE bring these back. The memories i have of my mom having these in her purse would mean a lot to bring that back to me since her passing. Thank you.
Kj
PLEASE BRING THEM BACK!!
Bring them back
Best in the mint game
These are the best mints to open your breathing pathway. A singer’s dream. Please consider putting them back on the market!Take the crystal mints off and bring back the blue mints. Thanks
My husband is LOST without his blue mints! They help tame his acid reflux! Please bring them back!
It has been several years since these were discontinued. They were one of our best selling items and we hope that Brach’s will some day come to their senses….
Please reconsider production, despite its “High cost in production “. For all of us kids, that would like to have just a small taste of our childhood back. This was my Grandma’s and I favorite.
Please bring the Brach’s Ice Blue Mint Coolers Candy. I loved them and the minty taste is like no other. I’ve been looking all over for them not knowing they were discontinued. PLEASE BRING THEM BACK!!!
