Reese’s Reindeer Mix Joins Hershey’s 2026 Holiday Candy Lineup

Reese’s Reindeer Mix is one of the standout new snacks in The Hershey Company’s 2026 holiday portfolio, announced Nov. 5 in a company release carried on PR Newswire.

The mix is a sweet-and-salty pouch built around familiar Reese’s pieces in a seasonal format: milk chocolate-drizzled popcorn, Reese’s baking chips, Reese’s Mini Trees and Reese’s Pieces candy. Hershey describes the resealable pouch as aimed at holiday snacking, sharing, gifting, movie nights and fireside gatherings.

What is in Reese’s Reindeer Mix?

Per Hershey’s holiday announcement, the assortment combines:

• Milk chocolate-drizzled popcorn
• Reese’s baking chips
• Reese’s Mini Trees
• Reese’s Pieces candy

That mix of crunchy popcorn, peanut butter cups in tree shapes, candy shells and baking chips is meant to feel more like a shareable snack blend than a single molded chocolate. Hershey also flagged the mix among products that can work for holiday baking moments because it includes baking chips alongside the ready-to-eat pieces.

When and where can you buy it?

Hershey said 2026 holiday products will be available for a limited time at participating retailers nationwide throughout the holiday season. Pricing is set by each retailer, the company noted. Specific nationwide shelf dates and every store banner were not listed in the release, so availability can vary by location.

The Reindeer Mix sits alongside returning Reese’s seasonal shapes such as Reese’s Peanut Butter Trees and unwrapped Reese’s Mini Trees in resealable pouches — staples Hershey is bringing back for stockings, candy dishes and winter snacking.

What else is new in Hershey’s 2026 holiday lineup?

The same Nov. 5 announcement highlighted several other limited-time items:

• Hershey’s Kisses Cindy-Lou Who Strawberry Sugar Cookie — strawberry and sugar-cookie notes in festive foils inspired by How the Grinch Stole Christmas!
• Hershey’s Hugs Max the Dog Foils — classic Hugs in Max the Dog seasonal wraps
• KIT KAT Santa & Reindeer — milk-chocolate wafer treats in Santa and reindeer shapes
• SkinnyPop Elf Maple Syrup Kettle Corn — a maple-syrup kettle popcorn nod to Buddy the Elf

The company also teased a limited-edition Hershey’s Kisses-inspired wrapping foil kit for sale on Cyber Monday, Nov. 30, at shop.hersheys.com/holiday.

Samantha Siegal, senior director of marketing at Hershey, said in the release that people are adapting traditions while still wanting familiar favorites, and that the portfolio pairs those classics with new flavors and sweet-and-salty formats.

Why Reindeer Mix stands out

Compared with a standard Reese’s Tree, the Reindeer Mix is positioned as a multi-texture share bag — popcorn plus candy — closer to a party snack than a single chocolate. FoodBev Media’s summary of the launch likewise grouped it with Hershey’s push into festive confection and snack formats for 2026 gatherings.

For shoppers hunting the mix, Hershey points to Hersheyland’s holiday hub for more product details while noting that store stock and prices depend on local retailers.
