Overview
Reese's Take 5 is a candy bar that was released by The Hershey Company in December 2004. The original name of the candy bar was TAKE5 but common usage among consumers added a space. In June 2019, when the candy bar became part of the Reese's family, the name was officially changed to Reese's Take 5.
The "5" in the name refers to the combination of five ingredients: chocolate, peanuts, caramel, peanut butter, and pretzels. This unique combination of ingredients earned Reese's Take 5 top honors in the 2019 LA Times official candy bar power rankings. The Take5 was known as Max 5 in Canada, was discontinued, and was then returned in Canada in the fall of 2020, under the name "Oh Henry Level Up."
Product changes
Although continuously producing the Take 5 using the original ingredients, The Hershey Company also produced several variations of the Take 5 after its initial release in 2004:
Chocolate Cookie – Substitutes a chocolate cookie to replace the pretzel
Marshmallow (limited edition) – Substitutes a marshmallow creme to replace the caramel
Peanut butter – Has a peanut butter coating instead of milk chocolate
White chocolate – Has a white chocolate coating instead of milk chocolate
