HERSHEY (AP) — Bakers are complaining that something is amiss with Hershey’s Kisses.
The chocolate candy’s trademark tips have been mysteriously missing from batches around the country. Bakers have taken to social media to complain that the lopped-off tops are ruining the look of their holiday treats.
The Hershey Company responded to the disgruntled bakers after hearing of a Facebook post written by the Wedding Cookie Table Community group detailing the problem. The points of the chocolate candies were chopped off, leaving unattractive, flat tops.
Company spokesman Jeff Beckman tells the Lebanon Daily News they’re reviewing the issue. Beckman says Hershey has donated baking items to the Wedding Cookie Table group as a thank you for pointing out the issue.
The candy company has yet to explain what’s causing the missing tips on the chocolates.
