Hershey Launches 5-pound Baking Chips Bags

Hershey Foodservice has launched a new five-pound resealable bag of baking chips. This new format will help independent operators maintain product freshness.

The five-pound resealable bags add four new items to the Hershey Foodservice product portfolio: Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips, Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips, Premier White Crème Chips, and Peanut Butter Chips.

“This new five-pound option is something our customers have been asking for, and we are happy we were able to make it happen,” says Al Adams, director national chains and marketing, Hershey Foodservice. “We saw an opportunity to better meet the operator demand for the right-sized product with a price point that better fits their ongoing weekly or monthly budget—and in a format that’s resealable, so you don’t feel like you have to use it all right away. Plus, it fits in the pantry.”

Resealable bags allow for incremental use and maintain freshness of stored product. They also include an easy-to-pour feature.

HERSHEY’S baking chips can be used in baking brownies, cheesecakes, chocolate truffles, classic chocolate chip cookies and much more.
