Just throwing those out there, Hershey&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p>I think I enjoy the shaped ones more because they seem to have a different peanut butter to chocolate ratio than the cups. Or perhaps getting them at 50 percent off is the reason they taste extra special.<\/p>\n<p>Anyhoo, I do love that unique sweet and salty Reese&#8217;s nutty filling, which I believe my taste buds notice more with the seasonal Reese&#8217;s. That&#8217;s why Reese&#8217;s new Ultimate Peanut Butter Lovers Cups that are entirely coated in a peanut butter-flavored candy intrigue me.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, um, don&#8217;t get this confused with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/2019\/04\/29\/reeses-chocolate-lovers-peanut-butter-lovers-review-2019\/\">Reese&#8217;s Peanut Butter Lovers<\/a> that have been on and off shelves over the past few years (currently on, I believe). The non-monogamous shell on those is part-chocolate and part-peanut butter candy-flavored.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Reeses-Ultimate-Peanut-Butter-Lovers-Shell.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Reese s Ultimate Peanut Butter Lovers Shell\" title=\"Reese's Ultimate Peanut Butter Lovers Shell.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Nibbling the top of the ridged edges of these reveals the tan shell with faint brown specks has a mild nutty flavor similar to the gritty filling within it. Because they taste alike, the peanut butter flavor is taken to another level. It creates a delectable treat for Reese&#8217;s peanut butter fans. Also, at times, it reminds me of a White Reese&#8217;s, but one with a less sweet shell. Because of my previously mentioned Reese&#8217;s peanut butter adoration, I do love these light brown cups.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"display:block; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.theimpulsivebuy.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Reeses-Ultimate-Peanut-Butter-Lovers-Filling.jpeg?resize=600%2C450&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Reese s Ultimate Peanut Butter Lovers Filling\" title=\"Reese's Ultimate Peanut Butter Lovers Filling.jpeg\" border=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" \/><\/p>\n<p>However, I will admit the chocolate and PB combination that make up the original Reese&#8217;s (and all holiday shapes) is hard to beat. The whole reason why we love Reese&#8217;s is because of the two ingredients. But it&#8217;s nice to be able to experience a product that&#8217;s as close as we&#8217;ll get to having a shell-less peanut butter cup.<\/p>\n<p>Reese&#8217;s Ultimate Peanut Butter Lovers is the &#8220;ultimate&#8221; Reese&#8217;s product for peanut butter fans. Well, again, unless The Hershey Company discovers a way to make its popular candy shell-less.<\/p>\n<p><strong>DISCLOSURE:<\/strong> I received free product samples from The Hershey Company.
