PEEPS come in all kinds of shapes, sizes, and colors. And while they may have started as an Easter candy, they now make them for almost every holiday. But now the marshmallow chick brand is allowing us to customize our own PEEPS and make them look exactly how we want.
PEEPS is introducing My PEEPS, a kit where you can decorate your PEEP any way you want. The kit includes 12 PEEPS chicks in whichever color you choose (pink, blue or yellow), a chocolatey dip in either milk, dark, or white chocolate, and your choice of “dippings.”
The dippings include round confetti sprinkles, nonpareil sprinkles, crushed cookie (it looks like Oreos or something similar to that), crushed pretzel, chocolate chips, or toasted coconut.
Once you get the kit home, you simply unwrap everything, dip the bottoms of the chicks into the chocolate (or the whole thing; no one’s going to stop you), and then sprinkle or dip it into the topping you chose.
PEEPS now lets you customize your Easter candy
While this is clearly meant to be fun for kids, it can also be fun for adults too. Who doesn’t like customizing their own sweet treat?? And marshmallows and chocolate are always a winning combination.
The kits are only available while supplies last so get one (or two) while you can. They are currently $29.95 per kit on the My PEEPS website.
If I’m customizing a PEEP, I’m going with classic yellow, dipping it in dark chocolate, and coating it in crush pretzels. The marshmallows are so sweet that the saltiness from the pretzel should work really well. The slight bitterness of the dark chocolate won’t hurt either.
I also probably wouldn’t wait for the chocolate to dry because melted chocolate is delicious!
If these are popular, maybe they’ll do them for Halloween and Christmas too. Or maybe they’ll add the bunny ones into the mix next year!
