Lava Cake-Flavored Chocolates

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Hershey's New Lava Cake Kisses are Here in Time for Valentine's Day

— January 4, 2019 — Lifestyle
With Valentine's Day just around the corner, Hershey's has debuted limited-edition Lava Cake Kisses.

The new Lava Cake Kisses are a seasonal flavor created for the Valentine's Day season. Just like real lava cakes, the new Kisses feature a gooey chocolate center encased inside of a dark chocolate kiss. As Hershey's describes the tasty new treats are "the perfect indulgent treat for your partner, best friend, and even yourself!" The bag itself is even decked out for the occasion, with two heart-covered Hersey's kisses dining over a lava cake in front of the Eiffel Tower.

If you want to get your hands on the gooey new chocolates, you'll have to act fast because they won't be sticking around beyond Valentine's Day.
