It’s April and Easter is only a few days away so we decided to have some Easter fun today by taste-testing some of the new flavored Peeps. People either seem to love or hate Peeps – we’re in the ‘love’ side of the controversy. Also, since I eat dairy-free due to food allergies, Peeps are still a win for me.
We challenge you to a Peep Taste Test
Don’t leave all the fun to us. Host your own Peep taste test, try some of the new flavors and don’t forget the classics. Let us know your favorites. Even better, post on social media and tag us, @sweetshoppemom and @wheresbnow.
So many flavors of Peeps
Since we’re staying at home as much as possible and social distancing during the Coronavirus pandemic, I ordered the varieties at Target with drive-up pickup. So easy (I may never go back to shopping in stores again).
Here are the varieties I got for Peeps taste-testing:
- Peeps Filled Delights, Chocolate Caramel Swirl
- Peeps Party Cake
- Peeps Cotton Candy
- Peeps Sour Watermelon
- Peeps Delights, Raspberry dipped in cream fudge
What did we think?
Dana’s picks
#1 Favorite – Chocolate Caramel Swirl
#2 Favorite – traditional Peeps
Brendan’s picks
#1 Favorite – Chocolate Caramel Swirl
#2 Favorite – Raspberry Dipped in Cream Fudge
One thing to note is while I picked the Chocolate Caramel Swirl as my top pick because I follow a dairy-free diet this isn’t one I should be eating (I did cheat for this taste-testing…and it was worth it).
