This spring, for a limited time, 7-Eleven is introducing a marshmallow latte flavor that will appeal to fans of PEEPS. The newest limited-time flavor promises to bring PEEPS fans to participating convenience stores, especially as guests have a chance to give back when they try the flavor. 7-Eleven is giving guests the ability to round up their PEEPS latte purchase to the nearest dollar in support of local Feeding America food banks. There are also incentives for those who place orders with the 7-Eleven app or the dedicated 7NOW delivery app.
For Easter, there are plenty of other treats that can be found in-store to create a full basket. There's frosted shortbread cookies in shape of bees and butterflies, flower-shaped gummy candies and crunchy pretzels with strawberry-flavored coating.
