Frequently Asked Questions
Is the REESE'S TAKE 5 18-count box a good ready-to-gift candy gift without extra packaging?
Yes. The 18-count box arrives in a presentable retail-style package that can be handed over as-is for a coworker thank-you, neighbor drop-off, or stocking stuffer. For higher-end presentation, slide the whole box into a gift bag with tissue paper and you have a complete gift in under a minute.
Can I use these bars to fill birthday party favor bags or piñatas?
Perfectly suited for it. The individually wrapped 1.5 oz bars are an easy drop-in for favor bags, candy buffets, piñatas and trick-or-treat bowls. Hosts often mix them with smaller chocolates for a varied candy table.
Is this a thoughtful Valentine's Day classroom or office candy gift?
It works well for both. The full-size individually wrapped bars feel more generous than a tiny heart-shaped chocolate, and the sweet-and-salty profile is a welcome change from straight-up milk chocolate. Decorate the wrapper with a ribbon or tag and you have a ready Valentine.
Can I send this as a holiday gift to someone who keeps kosher?
Yes. REESE'S TAKE 5 bars are kosher certified, so you can include them in Jewish holiday celebrations, hostess gifts for Hanukkah parties, or send them to friends and family who observe kosher dietary guidelines.
Is the 18-count box a good hostess gift for a dinner party or housewarming?
It is a popular hostess choice because the recipient can either set the bars out with coffee after the meal or save them for later. Pair the box with a small bouquet or candle and you have a polished, low-effort gift.
How does the bulk 18-count compare to a 2-pack of 36 bars for higher-volume gifting?
The Pack of 2 gives you 36 bars for office drops, large parties or wedding welcome bags at a better per-bar price. For one-off gifts or smaller gatherings, the single 18-count box is the right size and avoids leftover candy sitting around.
Will the chocolate melt or get messy if I ship these as a gift?
Each bar is sealed in a sturdy individual wrapper, and the outer box adds a second layer of protection. For shipping in warm weather, add an insulated liner or cold pack to prevent melting, and ship early in the week to avoid weekend warehouse delays.
Is this candy a good last-minute gift that ships fast?
Yes, the 18-count box is in stock and ready to ship quickly through most retailers, making it a solid same-week or next-day gift option for forgotten birthdays, last-minute hostess moments and rushed holiday pickups.
How does TAKE 5 compare to a Snickers bar as a gift for someone who loves candy?
Both are full-size candy bars, but TAKE 5 layers pretzels, caramel, peanut butter, peanuts and milk chocolate for a more complex bite. A Snickers lover will recognize the caramel-and-peanut combination but appreciate the added salty crunch and peanut butter layer.
Is this a better gift than a plain box of peanut butter cups?
For a candy enthusiast, TAKE 5 offers more variety per bar with five distinct layers, while peanut butter cups are a one-note chocolate-and-peanut-butter experience. If your recipient enjoys sweet-and-salty snacks, TAKE 5 tends to land better as a gift.
How does TAKE 5 stack up against a premium chocolate bar for a special occasion?
A premium single-origin chocolate bar wins on artisanal cachet and presentation, but TAKE 5 wins on crowd-pleasing flavor and value. For a recipient who prefers fun, layered candy over fine chocolate, the 18-count box is the more universally enjoyed gift.
Will my recipient think a big box of candy bars is a low-effort gift?
Presentation is everything. Dropping an unadorned box on a counter can feel last-minute, but a ribbon, handwritten card or pairing with a candle, mug or wine bottle instantly elevates it. Because the bars are individually wrapped, you can also split the box into smaller gift bundles for several people.
Is it safe to send TAKE 5 bars to a recipient with a peanut or tree nut allergy?
No, this product is not appropriate for anyone with a peanut or tree nut allergy. Choose a different gift, and always check the recipient's allergy restrictions before sending any food gift.
What if my gift recipient doesn't love pretzels in their chocolate?
The pretzel crunch is one of the bar's defining features, so a confirmed pretzel hater will likely not enjoy TAKE 5. In that case, a classic peanut butter cup assortment or a caramel-and-nut bar is a safer gift choice.
Can I customize the wrappers with a personal message for wedding favors or corporate gifts?
The original wrappers are branded, so adding custom printing requires a separate wrapper sleeve or sticker. Many gift-givers simply tie a personalized tag around each bar with ribbon for a polished look at a fraction of the cost of custom packaging.
Is there a risk the gift will arrive with melted or damaged bars?
In normal shipping conditions, the 18-count box arrives intact. For summer gifting or shipping to hot climates, choose expedited shipping with insulation, since chocolate can soften in transit heat regardless of brand.
What ingredients are in a REESE'S TAKE 5 candy bar?
A TAKE 5 bar layers pretzels, caramel, peanut butter, peanuts and milk chocolate. The full ingredient list also includes sugar, corn syrup, salt, lecithin and other standard candy ingredients, plus milk, soy and wheat allergens. Always check the printed wrapper for the most current ingredient declaration.
How should I store TAKE 5 bars to keep them fresh?
Store the bars in a cool, dry place between roughly 60 and 70 degrees Fahrenheit, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. In warm climates or summer months, refrigerate or freeze them in a sealed bag to prevent melting, and let them come to room temperature before eating for the best texture.
Can I freeze TAKE 5 bars for long-term storage?
Yes, you can freeze the individually wrapped bars for several months in a sealed freezer bag. Thaw them in the wrapper at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes before eating. The pretzel may soften slightly after freezing, but the flavor stays true.
Is REESE'S TAKE 5 safe for people with peanut or tree nut allergies?
No. TAKE 5 bars contain peanuts and are produced in a facility that also handles tree nuts, so they are not safe for anyone with a peanut or tree nut allergy. The product also contains milk, soy and wheat, so review the full ingredient list if you have any other food allergies.
Is REESE'S TAKE 5 kosher certified?
Yes, REESE'S TAKE 5 bars are kosher certified, which makes them a good fit for observant Jewish households, kosher events and Jewish holiday celebrations. Look for the kosher symbol on the package for the most current certification mark.
What's actually in the box when I order the 18-count pack?
Inside the 18-count box you get 18 individually wrapped, full-size 1.5 oz REESE'S TAKE 5 bars. Nothing else is included; just open the box, grab a bar, and you are ready to snack. The bulk box is a stand-alone product and does not require any assembly.
Can I chop TAKE 5 bars up to use as a dessert topping?
Absolutely. Many home bakers chop TAKE 5 bars and sprinkle them over ice cream sundaes, brownies, cookies and cupcakes. The pretzels, peanuts and chocolate add crunch, salt and visual appeal. For clean cuts, chill the bar in the freezer for 10 minutes before chopping with a sharp knife.
Are TAKE 5 bars a better sweet-and-salty snack than a plain chocolate bar?
For anyone who craves both sweet and salty in one bite, TAKE 5 delivers more balance than a plain chocolate bar. The pretzel layer adds salt and crunch, the caramel adds chew, and the peanuts plus peanut butter add richness, all wrapped in milk chocolate.
What is the difference between REESE'S TAKE 5 and a REESE'S Peanut Butter Cup?
A REESE'S Peanut Butter Cup is a two-ingredient combination of milk chocolate and peanut butter. REESE'S TAKE 5 builds on that flavor base and adds pretzels, caramel and whole peanuts, so you get crunch, chew and salt in addition to the familiar chocolate-and-peanut-butter pairing.
Can I use TAKE 5 bars in baking, and do I need to adjust any recipes?
Yes, TAKE 5 bars work well in brownies, blondies, cookie dough and ice cream mixes. Use them as a one-to-one swap for chocolate chunks, but expect the batter to be slightly saltier and crunchier. Reduce added salt in the recipe by about a quarter teaspoon per cup of chopped TAKE 5.
