    Cherry Blossom (Candy)

    The Cherry Blossom was a Canadian confection manufactured continuously from the late 19th century until 2025. The candy, which was sold individually in a canary-yellow box, was classified as a cherry cordial, a candied cherry covered in chocolate. The Cherry Blossom itself was composed of a maraschino cherry and cherry syrup coated in milk chocolate mixed with coconut and peanuts. While the candy had been described as a “cherished treat,” Canadian consumers had mixed opinions about the candy, with some describing a “love-hate” relationship with it. When Hershey’s announced that the candy would be discontinued in 2025, many Canadians reflected on their nostalgic appreciation for the candy, and some people attempted to buy as many as possible.
