These new Hershey seasonal treats are being launched to coincide with Valentine's Day and Easter to help consumers celebrate in a decidedly flavorful way. The first product includes the Hershey's Kisses Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Flavor, which are a new take on the brand's signature confection that mimics the flavor of the romantic namesake dessert. The Cadbury Rainbow Mini Eggs are a new take on the treat, which consists of Cadbury's Milk Chocolate covered in a crispy sugar shell in several Easter-inspired colors.

The latest Hershey seasonal treats are being launched at retailers now in the US and will be rolling out over the course of the next several months. The products are each limited-edition and will only be around for a short while.
