My mom was a chocoholic – that probably has a lot to do with why I am also a chocoholic! At any given time, you could find Hershey’s KISSES at our home (well if you were ME, you could find them – I’ll explain below!). Mom liked to snack on KISSES while she watched television in the evenings. I remember seeing the little silver foil wrapper balls piled on the table next to her chair. Even after I grew up and moved out of the family home, I would see the same little foil balls on her table when I would visit. The only difference is that the little balls were now more colorful!
So my mom used to hide her kisses. Well she hid all of her candy, because as I mentioned above, I am a chocoholic. I have been since I was teeny tiny. The thing that was so funny is that I could find the kisses anywhere she hid it. Even if I wasn’t looking for it specifically, I would somehow magically go to where it was hidden. Mom would just laugh in disbelief, then of course she would share with me. No Hershey’s Kiss was safe with me around, and my mom’s laughter each time this happened, and us sharing Kisses, is a memory I will treasure forever. Mom passed away in 2006, but til this day, I think of her fondly when I indulge in a few Hershey’s KISSES (and sometimes share with my own daughter!).
Here is a fun infographic and explains the anatomy of a Hershey’s KISSES Chocolate!
Hershey’s KISSES aren’t just any chocolate – they are exceptional. I adore the rich flavor, and I even bake with them. One of our favorite cookies is the Chocolate Kiss Cookies I posted about awhile ago.

About Jennifer-admin
I had Hershey kisses at my wedding as a favor on the tables. The difference was that they had the flag on top with my name and that of my husband and the wedding date and little saying on the other side.
Happy Birthday!!! And we have something in common friend! Not only are we both chocoholics, our moms were too! xoxo
GREAT review and thanks for the shout out!

Getting box of cookies with Hersey’s Kiss on top for Christmas.
Visiting Hershey PA. I love that the streetlamps look like Kisses!
I loved when my kids tried them for the first time.
i loved getting them in party bags
As a kid I was thrilled whenever my aunt made cookies with a hershey kiss nestled in the center!
My dad loved Hershey kisses. He was a really easy going guy. I used to give him a bag on his birthday, which was just enough for him. Miss him dearly!
I remember sharing Hershey’s Kisses with my daughter for the first time and how much she loved them.
My favorite memory of Kisses is going on the little ride they have just outside the gates of Hershey Park showing you how Kisses are made and getting a sample at the end. My kids were licking their lips at the sight of all the melted chocolate.
