Poll: Unique Uses For Peeps Candy

Unique Uses For Peeps: Love It or Hate It?

April 7, 2009

It wouldn't be Spring without seasonal hallmarks such as pastel-colored jelly beans and Cadbury Creme Eggs — and, of course, Peeps. Fans of America's favorite marshmallow delight may want to pick up Peeps: Recipes and Crafts to Make With Your Favorite Marshmallow Treat.

DIY projects range from cute and edible (s'more Peeps, Peeps meringue tartlets) to far-fetched (Peeps checkers, Peeps Christmas wreath). How do you feel about the concept?

I know this is an old thread now, but I have to add, the ultimate in Peeps humor, if a little twisted, has got to be http://www.peepresearch.org/

How that the company producing Peeps & Bunnies are cranking out these sugary bombs for every holiday (non of which even taste remotely good), I think its a rather unique idea for a "cookbook" of sorts. Perhaps many of us have outgrown the uber-sugary stage of our lives but I am sure we've got nieces, nephews, kids, students, etc that are being sucked into the madness. Think of it as a nifty way to show-off and look hip! ;) Though I would veto the Peeps wedding cake topper!

Love it! What else are you going to do with them? They sure aren't edible :-P

Has anyone heard of Peep mashups? the CandyBlog does them from time to time... I personally can't eat Peeps. Too much sugary marshmallowy-ness for me to handle.

My husband's addicted to Peeps and I'd love to find some cool creative uses for them. I kind of like the idea of a book of them. I might have to check it out.

I have to admit that dipping them in chocolate fondue is really cute, at least in a photo!

I'm sure as hell not going to *eat* them... So I'm glad someone's putting them to good use.

yes it's silly, but hey! I love them. My dad actually suggested using blue Peeps as table decorations at my wedding. lol I don't think we are going to do it although I love the picture on the cover of the book where the little chick is serving as a place card holder. Hmm...
