If there’s one thing Hershey’s know how to do, it’s how to combine low quality chocolate with low quality peanut butter and create an amazing hybrid of flavours. And so I go into this review with high expectations because I actually trust that Hershey have made this well. I know, shocking.

This 311g bag of Peanut Butter Kisses emits a strong peanut butter smell as soon as you open the bag. I still think that these bags look cheap, not necessarily the quality but the design just looks kinda strange, and there’s something about it I don’t really like. Another thing I dislike is when peanut butter is described as ‘creamy’, for some reason this turns my stomach a little bit. Anywho…

Inside the bag are many, many little ‘kisses’. They’re wrapped in gold foil with ‘peanut butter’ written on each in red font. The kisses themselves are very greasy, with the tape that wraps around the chocolate having to be peeled off in nearly every case, and looking almost wet with the grease. Yum!

The way they work is to have a small chocolate base, then the dollop of peanut butter, and then the top dome part is chocolate again. The combination of course works well, with the taste being entirely peanut butter but with enough chocolate to keep it sweet. It tastes similar to a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup only not quite as good in my opinion, it seems a little lower in quality but I can’t deny that these are moreish as hell and delicious to boot.
