The Reese's Peanut Butter Carrots have been unveiled by the Hershey's-owned brand as a festive springtime treat that offers a distinctly sweeter take on the namesake vegetable. Arriving just in time for Easter celebrations, the chocolates are shaped like plump carrots made with the brand's signature chocolate and filled with peanut butter creme to make them a sweet treat that's ready for nibbling. The small sweets are likely to be a hit when incorporated into Easter baskets this year and have a familiar flavor that will be enjoyed by consumers of any age.
The Reese's Peanut Butter Carrots come individually wrapped in a foil that further enhances the carrot-like look with orange on the body and green leaves that are emblazoned with the Reese's insignia.
