WILLIAMS SONOMA CELEBRATES NATIONAL PEPPERMINT BARK DAY

December 1st Marks the Annual Celebration of One of the Holiday Season’s Most Iconic Confections Originated By Williams Sonoma Over 24 Years Ago

Williams Sonoma, a portfolio brand of Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE: WSM), the world’s largest digital-first, design-led and sustainable home retailer, announced today, the annual celebration of National Peppermint Bark Day. The Williams Sonoma nostalgic Peppermint Bark candy is the original recipe that sparked the popular holiday confection becoming a staple of the holiday season. Since Williams Sonoma began selling Peppermint Bark over 24 years ago, the iconic candy is often copied but never matched in quality or flavor. The once-a-year favorite is crafted in small batches with a custom blend of Guittard chocolate and triple-distilled peppermint oil, with no added artificial flavor or color.

Williams Sonoma’s legendary Peppermint Bark debuted as the original in 1998 after more than twenty rounds of testing for their top-secret formula that is still used today. From start to finish, each batch takes more than 24 hours, and each year, 12 weeks are spent preparing Peppermint Bark for the holidays. Every holiday season, over one million pounds of Guittard chocolate and 65,000 pounds of peppermint candy pieces are used to create Williams Sonoma’s famous Peppermint Bark.

The adoration of Williams Sonoma’s Peppermint Bark has inspired the development of various additional Peppermint Bark flavored products over the years. For the 2022 Peppermint Bark season, Williams Sonoma will be offering 22 different iterations of the original Peppermint Bark.
