\"CC_Hershey'sEvery year there are always new candy packages and products released for the Christmas holiday season. \u00a0One brand new item that I found particularly striking from the packaging standpoint was Hershey’s Candy Cane bar.<\/p>\n

I think what makes this one so appealing is how much it takes its look from the standard Hershey bar, but utilizing classic Christmas visual elements while doing so. \u00a0The candy cane stripes on both ends of the wrapper really do draw the eye in as does the bright white background. \u00a0Released in more standard \u00a01.55 ounce size, as well as a king-size 3.55 oz. \u00a0Here are the wrappers for both:<\/p>\n

I have no doubt that this new bar is going to be a returning addition to Hershey’s annual holiday arsenal. \u00a0For a lovely review of the bar itself, I’d direct you to check out my pal Cybele’s review over at CandyBlog<\/a>.<\/p>\n

One other fun bit of related packaging I picked up this year was for Hershey’s Peppermint Bark Bells. \u00a0The white background of this one made me think I should include it in today’s post:<\/p>\n

I love the look of these holiday Hershey packages for this year. \u00a0Great-looking stuff.<\/p>\n

And that’s everything for today’s post. \u00a0See you next time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
