Roll Your Own Peeps

Posted by John Goulden Categories: Smart Home

With Easter fast approaching, the inevitable onslaught of chocolate rabbits, creme-filled eggs, fake grass, and jellybeans is upon us.  However, no collection of Easter candy products is complete without the spongy, sugar coated product known as Peeps.  What once started as merely a marshmallow chick, has evolved to include bunnies and now covers not just Easter but Valentine’s Day, Halloween, and Christmas as well.  Love ‘em or hate ‘em, an estimated 700 million Peeps will be sold this Easter, although that gives us no idea how many will actually be eaten.

If you can’t wait for a holiday that Peeps has infiltrated, you can now make your own at home.  The Peeps Marshmallow Maker, or Peeps Machine as we like to think of it, comes with marshmallow mix, yellow and pink sugar (what, no purple?), and Peeps molds with a variety of fun shapes. 

Satisfy the Peeps freak in your life by picking one up for $26 USD for the machine, and $8 USD for the mix.  Obviously not intended as a cheaper alternative to buying them pre-made.
