I'm curious as to the identity and species of the candy-munching minions.
Do you have details as to their descriptions?

Poro's

I can only assume that is their species...
Is that a negatory as to their descriptions?

Yes. Google it.

Wh-
Blue. What's wrong?
That was uncharacteristically unkind of you.

It was not my intention. Poro's are little sheep ram creature that have a big tongue they pant with a lot.

Hmmm...let's go over some fun tidbits!

Poros are equal parts truth, valor, and innocence
The color that best describes poros is "very light blue, like Freljordian snow" (Pantone P 121-3 U)
Poros have a heart-shaped underbelly because they're made of love
A poro's horns perk up when it's excited and droop down when it's scared
Poros paddle through deep snow with their front paws
Some believe that poros are indestructible--though at one point we animated poros to keel over and twitch if they ran into the Abyss' fountains
Poro-Snax are frosted with Freljordian ice crystals
Due to recent heroic deeds, Braum is a friend to the poros
