New Product Review:

Hershey's Kisses Cereal

Reviewed by Mr Breakfast on 1/23/2020

Here's a cereal that should bring to mind delicious Hershey's Kisses candies in shape and hopefully in flavor. I was not expecting the actual creamy, delightful chocolate that the candy provides, but I was expecting some kind of significant chocolate experience.

Eaten dry, this cereal is actually awful. It has a burnt flavor that is unappealing and masks any chocolate.

Fortunately, that burnt flavor disappears completely once you add milk. The milk immediately becomes chocolatey and this new cereal holds its own compared to other chocolate cereals on the market. The cereal pieces stay crunchy in milk for up to 8 minutes.





The chocolate flavor here is nothing new. It reminded me of Cocoa Puffs with a different shape and firmer texture.

While the cereal does a disservice to Hershey's Kisses candies, it's pretty good when it comes to chocolate cereals... just don't raise your expectations too high.
