One of my favorite things to indulge in is a Hershey chocolate bar. When it comes to my Hershey bar, I am pretty simple and I always seem to go for the plain Hershey bar. If I could I would make every thing I eat taste better by adding one of these Hershey bars to it. That is why I was excited when Crowdtap and Hershey gave me a chance to try out their new Hershey Spread. The Hershey Spread comes in three great flavors, Almonds and Chocolate with Hazelnuts, and I was selected to try out the Plain chocolate flavor. I received notification that I would be getting a sample to try out right before Christmas so I was anxiously stalking out the mail box in anticipation of its arrival. After days of waiting, my sample finally arrived shortly after the first of the year and it was as if Christmas had come again to our house. From the moment I opened the package, my kids were super excited about trying it out. We immediately went to our pantry to see what we could try it out on. Before we got a chance to spread it onto anything, both of my girls had grabbed a spoon and tasted this spread. I couldn't let them enjoy it on their own so I jumped in as well.
I found the spread to be creamy and delicious but I was a little disappointed that even though it had a great flavor, it did not taste like my favorite Hershey bar. I found that it just did not have that distinctive Hershey taste that I have grown to love. Since my children love chocolate just as much as I do, we tried it on just about everything that we could think on. The first thing that we tried the spread out on was some good old fashion vanilla ice cream. We started out by warming a little of the spread and then pouring it onto our ice cream. My children loved the spread so much that they ate every bit of it. Next we decided to try it out on some apple sticks and this too was a hit. The creaminess of the chocolate paired with the tartness of the apples was a perfect match.
One of the items I saw people posting about trying was pretzel sticks so the girls and I decided to see what all the fuss about. This was another hit and now anytime my girls get pretzels for a snack they think that chocolate spread should come along with it.
During our taste test, we also tried some pound cake thins and some cream flavored gold fish.
Overall, we had a great time trying out the Hershey Chocolate spread and we are constantly on the lookout for new things that we can try it out on. One of the great things about the Chocolate spread is that it is so versatile and you can use it on anything you like as well as in all of your favorite recipes.
