Also new to the Peeps holiday lineup are sugar-free peppermint stars in count-good packages, the company said. Additional holiday candies include:

- Peeps marshmallow trees and snowmen in both count-good and take-home packages;
- Peeps sugar cookie flavored marshmallow cutouts in take-home packages; and
