The price change will be a "low double-digit increase" and affect products across the company's confection portfolio, according to a Hershey spokesperson. Founded in 1894, the Pennsylvania-based company owns over 90 brands including Hershey Kisses, KitKat, Reese's and York.

Rising ingredient costs prompted Hershey to raise prices on chocolate products, and the company noted the change is unrelated to tariffs or trade policies.
