Reese’s Launch New Version Of Its Peanut Butter Eggs
Reese’s has given us chocolate peanut butter treats in various shapes, from pumpkins, to Christmas trees, and Easter eggs. And soon Easter egg-shaped Reese’s will be hitting the shelves at stores. This year, the brand is making some changes to its festive milk chocolate peanut butter candy. For the first time, Reese’s has launched Direct from the Factory Peanut Butter Eggs. The name implies that the candy will be shipped directly from the factory.
According to Hershey, the company will give customers a delivery window, “just days after the treats were made at the Reese’s factory.” Then, the candy will be packed fresh and delivered straight to the customer’s doorstep. Before the release of this product, the Direct from the Factory line only included the traditional Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
Limited quantities of Hershey’s Easter Eggs available.
These Easter egg-shaped candies are available exclusively on the Hershey’s store website for $24.99. The candy bag is around 32 ounces and contains about 54 individually wrapped Reese’s Eggs. Hershey mentioned that the company only sells limited quantities of its Direct from the Factory Reese’s candies a few times per year. They also said that the items “sell out fast every time.” They wrote on Instagram, “Order yours before they sell out!”
Many people rushed to the comments to share their excitement. “THE BEST IN THE WORLDDDDD,” someone wrote. Another person said, “OMG! Need! [heart-eyed emoji], [drooling emoji].”
Recently, Reese’s dropped a peanut-shaped version of its classic peanut butter cups. According to the Instagram account @markie_devo, Reese’s has redesigned its traditional peanut butter cup to look like a peanut. The information was initially shared by Your Snack Dealer on Facebook, who found the new shape of the candy near the checkout at Walmart.
In additional updates related to Reese’s, the candy brand has recently partnered with bakery chain Nothing Bundt Cakes to introduce the new Reese’s Chocolate Peanut Butter Bundt Cake. It’s available until Feb. 25. This bakery item features a chocolate cake with chocolate chips and Reese’s peanut butter chips, topped with cream cheese frosting, and drizzled with Reese’s peanut butter sauce. Customers can choose from eight- or 10-inch cake bundt cakes, personal-sized “bundlets,” or bite-sized “bundtinis” when placing orders.
