Growing up, going on a camping trip was basically synonymous with roasting marshmallows over the campfire, building the perfect s’more and enjoying the gooey goodness. Then you’d lather, rinse, repeat until all the ingredients were eaten up or we’d stuffed ourselves silly. But now that I’m a grown up, I’ve realized I don’t have to be on a camping trip to enjoy this DIY treat — I can easily make one from the comfort of my backyard.
And of course, now that I’m making s’mores on my own terms, I want to improve upon the process and make it easier at the same time. While the humble s’more has three basic ingredients — graham crackers, marshmallows and chocolate — there are a number of supplies that make perfecting the s’more quick and easy. For starters, Stuffed Puffs® Chocolate Filled Marshmallows filled with Real Milk Chocolate streamlined the whole game. Instead of three ingredients, you only need two, and you’ll never have to worry about running out of chocolate or marshmallows. Once you’ve got your main ingredients, feel free to improvise and level-up your s’more with some additional, surprising ingredients that will surprise and delight your tastebuds (seriously — we included bacon on this list, you’re going to want to check it out).
When it comes to backyard s’mores, you’ll also need some basic supplies. After all, what’s a s’more without a fire to roast it over? That’s where the fire pit and roasting stick (or the s’more maker cage, if you’re really sophisticated) come into play. Keep reading for all the things you need to make the perfect s’more.

Stuffed Puffs® Chocolate Filled Marshmallows
What’s a s’more without a marshmallow? The answer is simple — it’s not a s’more, or at least not one we’d want to eat. And based on their innovation in the s’more game, we’re pretty sure the team at Stuffed Puffs would agree. Their Stuffed Puffs® Chocolate Filled Marshmallows filled with Real Milk Chocolate combines two of the three ingredients for the s’more, making your work over the campfire that much easier.
Stuffed Puffs® Chocolate-on-Chocolate Filled Marshmallows
Not only did the folks at Stuffed Puffs® make a chocolate filled marshmallow, they also gave us the Stuffed Puffs® Chocolate-on-Chocolate Filled Marshmallows filled with Real Milk Chocolate. This extra chocolate-y stuffed marshmallow is for the true chocolate lovers among us. They’re the people who would probably also reach for a chocolate graham cracker (you know who you are).
Graham Crackers
Graham crackers are the foundation of the classic s’more and provide a satisfying crunch. The lightly-sweet cracker is a perfect complement to the warm and gooey marshmallow.
Fire Pit
If you’re going to make roasting s’mores in your backyard a regular habit (this is a habit we fully support), then you’re going to want a fire pit. This one will blend nicely with your patio decor and allow you to perfect your s’mores technique without damaging your lawn.
Roasting Sticks
Real scouts might prefer scavenging for a long, wooden stick, but we understand if you want something a bit more hygienic. This set of eight roasting sticks boasts a telecoping handle so you can roast your Stuffed Puffs® Chocolate Filled Marshmallows at a safe distance.
S’more Maker
For the real s’more aficionado, let us introduce the S’more Maker. This contraption takes your standard roasting stick to the next level by creating a roasting basket for the entire s’more — so the whole thing will be evenly warmed and charred to perfection.
Hand Wipes
Perhaps the best part about s’mores is the ooey-gooey fun of eating them! Stock up on some hand wipes to simplify your clean up.
