Everybody loves Hersey’s Kisses, and it seems some folks love them so much they are unhappy with even the slightest change.
Apparently fans of the chocolaty treat have noticed that lately the Kisses have looked different. While they still have the classic teardrop design, they are being packaged with broken or missing tips, leaving jagged edges in its place. The broken or missing tips seem to be affecting for all varieties of the delicious sweet and bakers in particular are very upset because they say it’s ruining designs of their cakes and cookies.
So why is this happening? Well, Hershey’s has yet to give an explanation but Jeff Beckman, director of corporate communications for The Hershey Company, did release a statement on the controversy. “We are looking at the issue now,” he says. “We understand that bakers’ expectations are high for an iconic brand that is more than 100 years old because they are proud of their desserts.”
