Mystery Shape Peanut Butter Cups

Reese’s Mystery Shapes Peanut Butter Cups are Coming This Winter

— October 12, 2019 — Lifestyle
This winter, Reese’s plans to keep consumers guessing with its new Reese’s Holiday 'Mystery Shapes' Peanut Butter Cups.

In years past, Reese's shaped peanut butter cups have become a bit of a running joke, as they don't always look like the intended shape. For instance, many of the winter evergreen tree Reese's Peanut Butter Cups often come out looking like oblong blobs. But now consumers will have to take an even closer look with the debut of Mystery Shapes Peanut Butter Cups. As per the product description, the holiday pack will consist of Reese's classic chocolate peanut butter cups “in an array of seasonally themed shapes” which will “keep in you in suspense as you open them.”

Available from stores like Walgreens and Walmart, the new Reese's Holiday Peanut Butter Mystery Shapes is a true holiday surprise.
