Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups are back for the 2025 Big Game
Following its blockbuster 2024 campaign, Reese’s is gearing up for a bold return to the Big Game in 2025. Renowned for its witty and comedic ads, the brand promises an even more creative and humorous approach this year. Reese’s 2024 ad was a viral sensation, driving retail demand and earning accolades like the #2 spot on Kantar’s League Table and System1’s rankings, plus an A+ from the Kellogg School of Management. The Reese’s Caramel Big Cup, featured in the ad, was also named 2024’s top consumer packaged goods (CPG) innovation.
Building on this success, Reese’s teased a 30-second commercial for 2025, produced by Erich & Kallman, featuring unexpected twists and its iconic chocolate-peanut butter duo. “If last year taught us anything, it’s that people want more Reese’s,” said Ryan Riess, VP of Brand Strategy. “We’re back for round two—bigger and bolder!” Snak Club launches Tajín® seasoned chocolatey snacks
