M and M's can melt in both your hand and mouth. If the temperature is warm enough the candies can melt anywhere!
"Melts in your mouth, not in your hand" -M&Ms
Interestingly in the UK that slogan ("Melts in the mouth not the hand") was applied to milk chocolate Minstrels - they were a large globule of chocolate covered in a sugary coating that had a melting point higher than 36oC (normal body temperature) and so didn't melt, whereas chocolate as a melting point a little under 36oC and so does melt, in the hand. I presume the m and m slogan is for a similar reason.
Advertising slogans are present throughout the everyday life of people all over the world, and some are good enough to stick in people's memory for years. Examples of some that are memorable include Nike's 'Just do it' slogan, McDonald's 'I'm Lovin' It,' and Chevy's 'Like A Rock,' just to name a few.

It's got to be Ice Cream, because, after all, "M&M's melt in your mouth, not in your hand." Ice Cream will certainly melt in your hand.
It has to do with saliva. The main reason, though, is that the temperature of your mouth is hotter than the temperature of your hands, and the melting point of mnms is between those. You can test this by putting an mnm in your hand and closing it, making it heat up and melt in your hand. TY for the update on my answer Pengwer1800!!
M&M candies were developed during world war two because the chocolate carried by soldiers always melted in their packs. So MARS candy company developed M&M's for soldiers to carry that would melt in your mouth and not in your pack. The war was over before they were ready so they marketed them as melt in your mouth and not in your hand.
