Hershey's Miniatures are neapolitan candy bars sold by The Hershey Company in packages of individually wrapped chocolates. The current assortment contains traditional Hershey bars, Mr. Goodbar, Hershey's Special Dark, and Krackel bars.[1]
Hershey's Miniatures were first introduced as an assortment in 1939, featuring the five most popular Hershey candy bars of the period: Hershey bars, Krackel bars, Mr. Goodbars, Bitter-Sweet now called Hershey's Special Dark, and a fifth-bar, Hershey's Nougat-Almond. Also promoted as a full-size bar at that time, Hershey's Nougat-Almond was later discontinued in 1942 due to wartime restrictions and was no longer included in Hershey's Miniatures assortments.[2]
