Cherry Blossom was a type of chocolate confection produced by Hershey Canada. It was discontinued in 2025.
The Cherry Blossom consisted of a maraschino cherry and cherry syrup surrounded by a mixture of chocolate, shredded coconut and roasted peanut pieces. Cherry Blossoms were packaged in yellow boxes. Contrary to common myth, filling was not injected inside the chocolate. The cherry candy was coated with an enzyme, invertase, that would break down the solid into a liquid over the next 1 to 2 weeks.
