Hershey's won't be skipping Christmas 2020

Peeps, however, plans on skipping Halloween and Christmas candies

Don’t worry, there will still be Christmas candy.

As with many other aspects of 2020, the upcoming holiday season will likely be altered due to the coronavirus pandemic. While there has been some concerns that some holidays (like Halloween) may be canceled or severely impacted by the pandemic, Hershey's is planning on going full steam ahead with Christmas.

The company recently revealed its candy lineup for the 2020 holiday season, which is being touted as "one of the largest holiday offerings" the brand has ever created.

This news comes after Peeps, another candy company, had announced that it would not be making Halloween- or Christmas-themed candies this year due to complications caused by the pandemic.

Fox News previously reported that Just Born, the company that produces Peeps, confirmed that the holiday marshmallow treats will not be produced this year, along with holiday varieties of Mike And Ikes and Hot Tamales. The company usually produces the marshmallow candies in a variety of shapes to coincide with the end-of-year holidays.

In a statement to Fox News, a spokesperson for Just Born said, “While Peeps Marshmallow Candies, Mike And Ike and Hot Tamales would typically be available in fun shapes and packaging sizes for the Halloween and holiday seasons, unfortunately, the seasonal varieties will not be in stores again until 2021.”
