Valentine Candy Rose

Wrap up a couple of candy kisses to make them into a Valentine Candy Rose for your Valentine. Moms love to receive Valentine presents too.

Trivia:

The Hershey Company (then known as Hershey Chocolate Company) developed wrapping machinery that could insert a visual product marker, a strip of paper called a plume, also called a tag or flag, in August 1921. First printed with the brand name, “Hershey’s,” this paper plume strip was an identification tag on every KISSES chocolate Source: Hershey Community Archives – HERSHEY’S KISSES Chocolates
