Chocolate-loving aesthetes can take heart: The mystery of the tipless Hershey’s Kisses has been solved. Since December, distressed bakers had wondered what had happened to the chocolate treats after they opened package after package — only to find their tips were missing. Would the Kisses, whose shape dates back more than a century and is even part of the company’s logo, ever be the same again? On Friday, Hershey delivered some reassuring words: The tips are coming back. “After we heard from Hershey’s Kisses fans during the Holiday Season, our operations team looked closely at our complete Kisses manufacturing process and made adjustments to the process for shaping the tips,” Jeff Beckman, a Hershey spokesman, said in a statement.
