Hershey's Kisses are small bite sized portions of Hershey's famous milk chocolate.

Each Kiss is about 4.6 grams (being one seventh of the suggested serving size of 7 kisses).

Hershey's Kisses come in a multitude variations and vary in caffeine content based on the amount of cacao they contain. 

The original Hershey's Kiss is milk chocolate. The standard amount of caffeine in milk chocolate is 20 mg / 100 g (USDA). This is equivalent to 0.92 mg per each Kiss (in other words not a lot).

Kisses labelled as dark chocolate (such as Hershey's Special Dark) will contain slightly more caffeine. However the chocolate is not a true dark chocolate (there is more sugar than cocoa butter). These kisses will probably have 1-2 mg caffeine per piece.

Caffeine can vary depending on quality of Cacao and where it was sourced.
