🕰 History & Formation:

The classic cheese ball originated in the U.S. around the 1940s as a savory appetizer made with cheese, nuts, and spices. Over time, dessert cheese balls made their way into the food scene as playful reinventions – especially during holidays and potlucks. The Reese’s Cheese Ball is a modern-day hero born from the eternal love between peanut butter and chocolate – a relationship that started in the 1920s with H.B. Reese, a former Hershey employee.

Today, it’s a symbol of nostalgia, comfort, and indulgence – all rolled into one.
