About Reese's Peanut Butter Santas

About Reese's Peanut Butter Santas

Santa has had a long year. Somebody is going to bite his head off first, and it may as well be you.

Reese's Peanut Butter Santas are the Reese's you already know, shaped like Father Christmas and tipped into a little bag. They are the ones that turn up in the stocking and are gone before the presents are properly open.

Each one is small enough to tell yourself one is fine. It never is.

Leave the bag on the coffee table on Christmas Eve and watch it go round the sofa. It comes back lighter every time, and nobody saw a thing.

Frequently asked questions about Reese's Peanut Butter Santas

Q: Is this the UK bag?

A: Yes, this is the bag from the UK shelves, brought over to Halifax and shipped from within Canada. Same Santas you remember from a British Christmas.

Q: How big is it?

A: It is a small 55g bag, so think stocking filler rather than centrepiece. Buying two is a common and reasonable decision.

Q: Does it work as a gift?

A: Very well. It is small enough to tuck into a card parcel or a stocking, and a bag of these says Christmas from home without needing a note.

More about Reese's Peanut Butter Santas

A British Christmas runs on shapes. Coins on the tree, a selection box before breakfast, and a small army of chocolate Santas in the stocking. Reese's Santas sit right in that pile on the UK shelves every December, next to the tins and the novelty boxes.

So when you are doing Christmas in Canada and you go looking for this exact bag, the one from the stocking-filler aisle back home, you are not being fussy. You are being accurate. The little bag is part of the memory.

It is a small bag, which is the whole idea. It slides into the toe of a stocking, fits in a parcel to someone who misses home, and keeps quietly in the cupboard until Boxing Day, if it lasts that long. Most bags do not.

People rarely stop at one bag. It tends to go in the basket with a UK selection box, a tin for after dinner and whatever else is needed to fill a stocking properly, all from the Christmas shelf at The Great British Shop.

The story of Reese's Peanut Butter Santas

A Santa you are allowed to bite

Somebody always eats the head first. Somebody else always pretends to be shocked, then does exactly the same. A Reese's Peanut Butter Santa in the stocking is a small act of cheerful violence on Christmas morning, and nobody has ever felt guilty about it. You know the drill: wrapper off, Santa gone, a quick look round to see whose stocking still has one in it. It comes from the people who gave the world the Peanut Butter Cup, and it vanishes just as quickly.

Read the full story

The dairyman in the basement

Harry Burnett Reese was born on May 24, 1879, in York County, Pennsylvania, and his big job had nothing to do with sweets. He managed Hershey's experimental Round Barn dairy until it was shut down for cost-saving in 1919 and he was let go. So in 1923 he founded the H. B. Reese Candy Company in Hershey, Pennsylvania, starting out in the basement of his own home. Not a boardroom. A basement.

One cent, then one thing

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups were introduced on November 15, 1928, and were first called Penny Cups, because they sold for one cent each. In 1942, with wartime rationing and the cups as popular as they were, Reese discontinued all his other candy lines to focus on that one. One product, the whole business behind it. He died on May 16, 1956, and is buried in Hershey Cemetery, Hershey, PA, in the same town where he started out.

Two great tastes, one Santa

The Hershey Company acquired the H.B. Reese Candy Company in 1963, and the cups are still made at a large Hershey, Pennsylvania plant said to produce about a quarter of the world's supply. Then there is the famous slogan: 'Two Great Tastes that Taste Great Together.' Reese's regularly turns its peanut butter candy into festive shapes, Santas included, which is how one ends up in your hand on the sofa after the Christmas dinner you swore had finished you off.
