Dairy-Free Version is *surprise* better!
These adult, less sweet, delightful peanut butter cups have a firm chocolate shell. You won’t feel like you’ve capped your daily sugar intake in one bite; nice balance of texture too.
This is GREAT NEWS!!!👍🏻🍫😀
Looking forward to my daughter getting to try my favorite chocolate. I think this is so Awesome that more things are coming available for her to eat. I hate when I read labels that say dairy. I know it’s gotta break her heart when she can’t have something she really wants. So way to go Hershey’s!!
Vegan! Yummy! And no unhealthy coconut oil!
So lucky we live 2023 — thank you, Hershey!
