Sugar Rush Hour

Inside (and out) the brand reminds hungry snackers that Peeps aren't just about Easter, they have flavors and designs for just about every holiday you can think of.  You can get your sugar rush all year round.

Visitors to the bus got free treats, played games and learned of the existence of Fourth of July Peeps.  There were also lots of dioramas with various shaped Peeps involved in various activities.
