From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Wilbur Chocolate Company is a chocolate manufacturing company located in Lititz, Pennsylvania. It was founded in 1865 by Henry Oscar Wilbur. They produce more than 150 million pounds a year, which are sold to major food companies and thousands of small shops. Their most popular line, Wilbur Buds, closely resembles a Hershey's Kiss, but predates it by thirteen years. Some chocolate historians argue that Milton S. Hershey stole the idea for his Kisses from Wilbur's. [citation needed]
