The best hot chocolates are made with Hershey’s. The best kisses in life? Also Hershey’s.
Could we be looking at the best Hershey’s Kisses?
Find out on this week’s episode of “Nobody Will Kiss Me, So I Review Chocolate For Fun.”
Mint Truffle and Candy Cane Kisses have cheered the Christmas season for the last decade, but Hot Cocoa Kisses are the first NEW winter seasonal since… well, Hot Cocoa Kisses in 2007.
Hey, I re-gift stuff all the time too.
The 2018 Hot Cocoa Hershey’s Kisses get a little makeover with a marshmallow flavored creme inside of milk chocolate. But do they taste anything like the beverage that warms our souls on cold wintry nights, when we’re eating chocolate over my laptop to remedy my soul-crushing loneliness?
Nope!
For something that’s literally a piece of chocolate, it’s amazing how little Hot Cocoa Hershey’s Kisses actually taste like HOT chocolate.
The issue here is that Hershey’s milk chocolate has such a distinct flavor with a stout bitter component that I normally associate with a darker chocolate. It is not the milky and sugary sweet chocolate necessary for a cup of the hot stuff.
The marshmallow flavored creme doesn’t add that note, and it certainly doesn’t taste specifically of marshmallow. It is just soft sugar that blends seamlessly into the milk chocolate.
By far the best quality about Hershey’s Hot Cocoa Kisses are how soft and melty they are – even the milk chocolate surrounding the fluffy creme is softer than usual.
So while they’re totally not terrible, they’re totally not hot chocolate. In that regard they’re certainly disappointing, like when an absolute smoke ends up being a bad kisser.
Where the hell’s my mug? These make my soul sad. ?

I feel like we are being punked lately….is Sachin Joshi really Alex Roz? Was this some kind of weird test to see if anybody would notice, lol?
Haha! It is most definitely him, he explained on a previous thread that his account got deactivated, so he had to create an alias. So now Alek is a sexy businesswoman.
Omg that’s too funny! I missed his explanation but I’ve read ‘her’ comments for days and I just assumed the sexy business woman was sticking it to Alek! Just goes to show, an Alek Roz by any other name is still Alek Roz, or, you take the Alek Roz from the boy but you can’t take the boy from, uh, ~ well, I’m sure there’s another metaphor in there somewhere!
Hi! This is Alek. My FB account is still disabled. I have submitted so many appeals and tried in vain going to their NYC offices. Only to be asked to fill out on an Ipad form and still awaiting. Sorry for the confusion that you are seeing on.
Actually I’m glad you’re OK! I didnt see your name for awhile and I was a little concerned! I’m somebody who reads daily but has never posted. But I was just so confused by Sachin I had to!
I’ll kiss you JB!! You’re friggin hilarious. ?
