The Cup Comparison


And so it begins...










The regular Reese's cup is on top of the big cup. You can see the greater surface area and height.









A measurement shows the distinct difference in size between the two.

Welcome

Welcome to reesescups.blogspot.com - the only page on the Internet that breaks down the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup and the Reese's Big Cup on a full scale.

There will not be many posts to this blog. This is to serve as a home for the comparison images. Feel free to check them out and leave any comments.
