News of Reese’s Elvis’ Tribute Cup
July brings fireworks, National Hot Dog Month, and this year … the Reese’s Limited Edition Elvis Cup. This one of the most highly anticipated limited edition foods of the year, and early reviews of the peanut butter and banana creme treat are that it is a food that lives up to the hype.
The Elvis version has been praised by casual candy consumers and serious candy reviewers, and even folks who don’t like bananas report they are pretty tasty. One blogger wrote that he thinks the cup is about perfect … but wishes Reece’s would have gone “balls out” and added bacon like Elvis did.
Have you found the Elvis Reese’s yet? The hunt is definitely on. CandyBlog has an ongoing thread of Elvis cup spottings so post here or there if you find them in your area. If you find them be sure to post which version you have, as observant eaters will notice a different Elvis image blesses various versions of the cup.
For more information on unique Reese’s, check out this review of a restaurant in New York that deep fries the traditional cups. Sounds like a good food contest item for next year’s Texas State Fair.
