In the fourth quarter Magic Straws will be teaming with Dippin-Dots to release a few limited edition Dippin-Dots Magic Milk Straws in early 2013. “It is a way to enjoy the flavors of an American classic ice cream treat for breakfast, lunch and dinner,” says Paul Henson, vice president, marketing, at Bloomington, Minn.-based Magic Straws, LLC. “Most of our straws are for children, however, we do get a teen following and we also get people on diets,” Henson says. “We get at least two e-mails a month from people who say our product is perfect because they are on Weight Watchers and cannot drink chocolate milk anymore.” Each straw flavors 10-ounces of milk. A six-pack box has a suggested retail of $1.99. Individually-wrapped straws are available in four flavors that retail between 39- and 59-cents each.
