Hershey’s Debuts Plant-Based Chocolate Almond Bars and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups

Hershey's has officially announced the launch of two new plant-based chocolate treats: Reese's Plant Based Peanut Butter Cups and Hershey’s Plant Based Extra Creamy with Almonds and Sea Salt. These dairy-free confections are designed for vegans and those looking to cut out dairy, utilizing oats to create a familiar milky texture. The Reese's cups feature a peanut butter interior coated in an "oat chocolate confection," while the Hershey's bar contains milk chocolate rectangles with almonds and sea salt, minus the milk.

The buzz surrounding the launch of these vegan treats began after they were accidentally spotted on the Rite Aid website and quickly made their way to Hershey's retail centers. Reese's Plant Based Peanut Butter Cups are set to be available nationwide this month, followed by the Hershey’s Plant Based Extra Creamy with Almonds and Sea Salt in April 2023. If you're a chocolate lover seeking plant-based alternatives, these new offerings from Hershey's are worth a try and can be found at Hersheyland.com.
