Hippeas teamed up with Illumination and Universal Pictures' Minions franchise to create limited-edition puff snacks inspired by the global pop culture phenomenon. The Minions-themed snacks created for the summer take the form of Organic Chickpea Puffs in the popular Vegan White Cheddar, which can be found in portable one-ounce bags and 10-ounce family sizes.
The bright yellow packaging of the product perfectly captures the vibrancy of both the chickpea snack brand and the Minions. The nourishing snacks are powered by four grams of plant-based protein, three grams of giber and just 130 calories per each one-ounce serving. The vegan-friendly and gluten-free snacks are arriving just in time for the release of the newest addition to the franchise launching this summer, Minions: The Rise of Gru.
