HERSHEY, Pa. -- Bakers are complaining something is amiss with Hershey's Kisses.
The chocolate candy's trademark tips have been mysteriously missing from batches around the country. Bakers have taken to social media to complain the lopped-off tops are ruining the look of their holiday treats. Without their points, the chocolate candies are left with flat tops.
The Hershey Company responded to the disgruntled bakers after hearing of a Facebook post by the Wedding Cookie Table Community group detailing the problem.
Company spokesman Jeff Beckman told the Lebanon Daily News they're reviewing the issue. Beckman said Hershey has donated baking items to the group as a thank you for pointing out the issue.
The candy company has yet to explain what's causing the missing tips.
