Dr Pepper Peeps marshmallows: We’ve never seen those in an Easter basket before.
Peeps Brand partnered with the iconic Texas soda company to formulate a marshmallow meant to mimic the flavors of Dr Pepper. The secret soda recipe was not shared, a spokesperson for Dr Pepper confirms.
A Peeps partnership was natural for parent company Keurig Dr Pepper, because last year, they jointly released Original Donut Shop Coffee flavored Peeps marshmallows, modeled after a flavor of K-cup pods created by Keurig.
Plus, Peeps likes “to deliver the unexpected,” a spokesperson for the company said.
Other Peeps flavors in 2023 include Sparkly Wild Berry, cotton candy, Hot Tamales, Party Cake and sour watermelon. Peeps parent company Just Born Quality Confections also owns Hot Tamales, Mike & Ike and Goldenberg’s Peanut Chews.
