This summer, as part of Reese’s support of Team USA and the Olympic Games, the brand unveiled Reese’s Ultimate Peanut Butter Lovers Cups. For the first time ever, in its more than 90-year history, the brand released the most extreme, peanut buttery candy version of its iconic Peanut Butter Cups by removing the chocolate!

While Reese’s and Team USA fans won’t be seeing 23x U.S. Olympic Gold Medalist Michael Phelps in the pool this Summer, they can catch him in the latest Reese’s commercial featuring our limited-edition Reese’s Ultimate Peanut Butter Lovers Cups.
