Reese’s Super Bowl Ad Ditches Celebrities for Chocolate Lava Humor

The candy brand’s 30-second spot focuses on absurdist comedy to promote its new Chocolate Lava Big Cup.

  • Reese’s 2025 Super Bowl commercial avoids celebrity appearances, a rarity in today’s ad landscape, to spotlight its Chocolate Lava Big Cup.
  • The ad humorously depicts fans mistakenly seeking actual lava from a volcano, with a park ranger attempting to correct them.
  • Reese’s emphasizes that its brand and product are the stars, leveraging its established popularity to stand out without celebrity endorsements.
  • The campaign extends beyond the Super Bowl with activations like a voice-activated ‘volcano’ in New Orleans and collaborations with the Kelce brothers’ podcast and ESPN show.
  • The ad aims to drive awareness of the new product, which features molten chocolate beneath peanut butter, and is already widely available in stores.
