Reese's Pieces-filled Peanut Butter Cups are coming to a store near you

UPDATE: May 12, 2016, 8:49 a.m. EDT Updated to include Reese's announcement of the coming new peanut butter cups.

Though Reese's hasn't straight-out admitted that it's releasing a new type of its classic peanut butter cup, it's looking pretty likely.

As Eater reports, leaked photos of a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup filled with Reese's Pieces appeared online last week. In the time since, Reese's has been teasing illustrations of the product on social media alongside the hashtag #Cupfusion. 

A spokesperson for Hershey's tells Mashable that the leaked photos have stirred up speculation about a potential upcoming product.

"In response, Reese’s launched a #Cupfusion social campaign that teases the validity of the rumors and their Facebook and Twitter feeds have been flooded with thousands of comments from the brand’s most loyal fans, begging for the rumors to be true. 

Fans still aren’t sure whether it’s true or not, but Reese’s will be addressing the #Cupfusion soon – stay tuned…"

Yeah, a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup featuring Reese's Pieces seems forthcoming has been officially announced by the company May 12.

They posted a short video on their Facebook page, confirming the leaks and teased speculation.

And just went can you stuff your face with this sugar-filled mashup? Reese's commented on the video saying that retailers nationwide will sell the product, which comes in a two pack or king-sized four pack, in July.

No telling whether it's a limited product or whether this holy marriage will permanently find a place in candy aisles everywhere.

But hey, use this as proof that dreams sometimes do come true.
