Hot Tamales Flavored Peeps Are Here for Valentine's Day

Looking for a little heat this Valentine’s Day? Peeps is ready to spice up the special occasion.

The iconic candy brand just rolled out a new flavor of marshmallow chicks ahead of the holiday: Hot Tamales Fierce Cinnamon.

Don’t be fooled by the adorable candy chicks — these gooey guys are spicy. The red-colored treats combine the spicy cinnamon flavor of Hot Tamales chewy candies with the sweetness of a Peeps marshmallow.

According to a Peeps representative, each chick is 27 calories and the marshmallows are both fat-free and gluten-free.

Two packages of these hot chicks sell for $3 and come with 10 marshmallows per pack. As of now, the limited-edition item can only be found at the Kroger store chains.

It includes a mix of “naked” cookie dough flavors including original, sugar cookie, brownie batter and peanut butter (all safe to eat raw thanks to egg-free batter and heat-treated flour), plus individual bags of mix-ins so kids can pick and choose their favorites.
