Can you feel that in the air? It’s nearly Peeps season, baby! Valentine’s Day is pretty much behind us, which means that the next candy-centric holiday is Easter, which means we have a LOT OF TIME to eat Peeps from now until April. And that’s great because Peeps has blessed us with a ton of things to be psyched about.
First up: Peeps jelly beans. These are a bit different from last year’s packs which included one fruit flavor each alongside a marshmallow flavor. This year, all the flavors (lemon, strawberry, blueberry, and marshmallow) live together in harmony via a variety pack. These are much like your classic Peeps but they are made to taste like sugary candy floss (which is just…sugar? Who knows!). They’re even pink with blue specks to look like classic cotton candy. You can find those at Big Lots. Of course if jelly beans aren’t your style, there are countless other Peeps to choose from.
Some of the most exciting ones include Chocolate Pudding Flavored Marshmallow Bunnies (can we make chocolate pudding the newest hot flavor?), Lofthouse Cookies, and even Peeps apparel, which we’ll learn more about March 3. Woo Hoo!
You can also try out these new Froot Loop-flavored Peeps on a stick. They’re rainbow and are supposed to taste pretty similar to the cereal, which can’t be a bad thing. If you want to go more classic? Birthday cake Peeps have been spotted at Target once again too.
There’s Peeps cereal and Peeps coffee creamer, as well as Hot Tamales Peeps. If you’re a Peeps superfan, you can also get Easter grass to line your basket that smells like Peeps too. And you can pretty much guarantee your classic Peeps will be back on shelves. But for now we’ll just have to keep waiting to see what other marshmallow chicken-related news that comes down the pipe.
If you have Peeps fever (sounds scary, get that checked out…), you can visit their official shop to get a ton of flavors that are currently on shelves and many that are not. You can also pick up super cute things like Peeps stuffed animals and Peeps Funko figures because why not? Easter will be here before you know it!
