Additionally, we will share some unique s’mores recipes to add a delicious twist to your next outdoor gathering.

The History of S’mores:
S’mores, short for “some more,” are believed to have originated in the early 20th century. The first recorded recipe for s’mores appeared in the 1927 Girl Scout handbook, making it clear that this delectable treat has been enjoyed by Americans for generations. The combination of toasted marshmallows, chocolate, and graham crackers quickly became a favorite among campers and outdoor enthusiasts.

S’mores: An All-American Tradition:
S’mores have become synonymous with American traditions, representing the simple pleasures of life and the joy of spending time with loved ones. Whether it’s a backyard bonfire, a camping trip, or a beachside gathering, s’mores bring people together and create lasting memories. Our designers recognize the importance of fostering these connections and can help you create the perfect outdoor space for s’mores nights.

To add a touch of creativity to your s’mores experience, we have curated some unique recipes that will tantalize your taste buds:
