Reviewing ZingerDingers, Dr. Peppers Peeps, & More

It is so sweet, the coconut only hardly comes through–I love it! It’s still the right amount of coconut, and if you love sweets like me, you’ll really enjoy them. The inside filling is thick and soft, and the chocolate shell breaks apart when you bite into it.

These have been around for quite a while; I’m not sure of an exact release date.

So creamy! The blueberry taste is light, with the truffle mostly consisting of a sweet, creamy white chocolate-like flavor. Overall, these truffles are great and ridiculously smooth.

Initially released around May 2017 as limited edition. I’m not sure if these have been continually rereleased, although these could be found again starting around February 2024 for the Easter season.

It’s so thick and chunky, reminding me of Reese’s Easter bunnies. Except, unlike Reese’s, these taste much more premium and a lot less sweet. The chocolate shell is on the thinner side, and the flavor is very light, providing a smooth, semi-sweet chocolate experience. Combined with the solid peanut filling which is semi-sweet, almost natural tasting, it all makes for a pleasant, tasty combination. This peanut butter, to me, has the right amount of saltiness and sweetness. If anything, I wish the chocolate shell was just a hair thicker because, as it is, it’s on the thinner side.

Not sure when these were released. Sanders has been around for decades. Found at Stop & Shop.

For some reason, this took several minutes more to cook than directed. That aside, it’s like a thick, semi-moist, cinnamon sugar cake. Overall, it really resembles coffee cake.

Likely released sometime around November 2023 and may only be around for a limited time. Found at Walmart.

Easy to make but they don’t give you enough ingredients. To fully coat these with the candy melts and sprinkles, you’re going to need to buy more of these yourself because they don’t give you nearly enough. Aside from that, it’s carrot cake tasting and has a nice combo with the sweet coating and sprinkles. The overall texture is wicked soft and easy to bite through!

Likely released sometime around February 2024, exclusively for the Easter holiday. Found at Walmart.

Dr. Pepper is my favorite soda, and I also love Peeps, but this is blah. There’s a thin layer of Dr. Pepper-tasting coating that tastes like a watered-down version of the soda mixed in with mostly flavorless marshmallows. It’s just not great and a really weird combo.

Initially released in early 2023, they’ve come back in February 2024 for the Easter holiday season. Found at Walmart.

It is fairly sweet with a light, artificial, lemony flavor. Honestly, I expected more punchy lemon. In the end, it’s a sugary-tasting, soft, lemony cake.

Released around April 2018 for Mother’s Day along with a Strawberry version. These have come back again in later years around the same time since. Found at Walmart.

Essentially, it is a Strawberry Zinger in circular form but with even more cream. It’s incredibly soft with the amount of pillowy cream in the center–really, it almost feels like it’s 90% of it! You barely have to chew as it all nearly melts in your mouth with how light and moist it all is. The light-tasting coconutty soft flakes covering this round treat also add a nice addition to the texture.

Released April 2024. Exclusive to Walmart.
