It’s a sign of the times.

And the times are tough!

Hershey’s is raising prices on all their products.

By a lot!

The cost of your chocolate Kisses and other such items will be 10% higher in the near future.

“Commodity costs have been volatile over the last several years and continue to remain at levels that are well above historical averages,” said David J. West, president and chief executive of Hershey’s. “Market prices for ingredients such as cocoa, corn sweeteners, sugar and peanuts are up 20% to 45% since the beginning of the year.”

Cry us a river…of chocolate!
