Many are in mourning of the end of the Cherry Blossom.
Hershey’s Canada is allegedly discontinuing the famous Cherry Blossom treat, the novelty candy that consists of a syrupy maraschino cherry encased in milk chocolate with bits of coconut and peanut.
They were originally produced at the Lowney Factory in Montreal between the 1890’s until the 1980’s, then Hershey’s Canada took them over.
The chocolates are instantly recognizable from their simple yellow brand packaging.
I remember getting them as a treat as a kid growing up and there was always one in my Christmas stocking.
Who remembers this Cherry Blossom jingle?
Rest in Peace Cherry Blossom, you’ll be missed!
