In 1926, Milton Hershey introduced HERSHEY'S Cocoa Syrup for commercial use by bakers, restaurants and soda fountains. Salesmen recognized how popular HERSHEY'S Syrup was with people, so they requested syrup to sell to people for use at home. In 1928, HERSHEY'S Syrup was launched in a can and little has changed since then! People across the world enjoy the same great taste of HERSHEY'S Syrup now available in convenient squeeze bottles, large jugs and the same one pound can. As tastes have changed, HERSHEY'S has introduced a variety of new flavors like Strawberry, Chocolate Malt and SPECIAL DARK. HERSHEY'S also offers Lite Syrup for people looking to reduce sugar and calories in their diets. In 2004, HERSHEY'S launched the first vitamin and mineral fortified chocolate syrup. Now your family can get the added benefits of five essential vitamins and minerals with every serving of HERSHEY'S Syrup! And, as always, all HERSHEY'S Syrups products are fat free!
