Attention Peeps Haters: You May Actually Like the New Chocolate-Covered Peeps
Brand new this year: individually-wrapped chocolate covered Peeps (in both dark and milk chocolate flavors). It's nothing revolutionary, but maybe this is finally where they woo Peeps haters. Biting into it, you don't really think about Peeps. You just taste a chocolate-covered marshmallow blob.Video: First Peeps Store Opens in the D.C.-Area
Love or hate them, Peeps are big-deal enough to get their own retail store in Oxon Hill, Maryland, just outside of Washington, D.C. You can finally bring your fetish of the squishy marshmallow chicks (and snowmen, bats, and reindeer—they've moved onto all holidays) to the next level with ginormous plush dolls, shiny figurines, bath toys, and other paraphernalia you clearly need. Now, if only they had a reserve collection in the basement cellar of stale Peeps. Take a video tour of the store, after the jump....First Peeps Retail Store Will Open in D.C. Area This Fall
The first Peeps & Co. store will open this fall at the National Harbor in Prince George's County in Hyattsville, Maryland, reports the Washington Post. In addition to the marshmallow menagerie, the store will sell T-shirts, pens, and even china....Photo of the Day: The Peep Liberation Front
Photograph by Comrade Bo After being microwaved, decapitated, and stored in drawers for stale-ification, the Peeps have had it. Seriously. They are pulling out the toothpick-et signs and taking it to the streets. This photo was submitted by the anonymous Peep Liberation Front (PLF), who feels especially connected to the movement. Look, the squishy brigade recognizes that being eaten is their destiny, but can they at least die with some respect?...How to Make Chocolate-Covered Peepsicles
Peeps wands for everyone! Making Peeptastic crafts for Peeps Week is a lot more fun than eating them. I'll admit I'm not a fan of Peeps by themselves, but skewered on a stick and covered in luxe chocolate and coconut? Definitely better than eating them plain. It's also not a bad way to go if you're going to die a Peepy death. These Peepsicles use the stepsister of the Peeps family—the bunnies. Chocolate mousse bunnies to be exact; although after tasting them I don't know if there's anything mousse-like about them. The only skewer type items in the Serious Eats kitchenette were 12 inches long and so up the bunnies' butts they went. That and the crackle of the...Making Peeps from Scratch: Interview with Chef Brian Robinson
Homemade Peeps (and a flamingo and shark for good measure) at Restaurant 3 If you took a nap, worked-out twice, built a hospital, and still had all the time in the world, would you then consider making Peeps from scratch? It just doesn't seem like a priority list topper, but hey. Chef Brian Robinson of Restaurant 3 in Arlington, Virginia, went for it. All week until Easter Sunday, he's treating his dinner guests to the beady-eyed confection. We had a little chat with him. First thing's first: Why?! I always loved Peeps as a kid, but as an adult and chef, I just can’t get past all the random ingredients on the label. It's a marshmallow! Let’s leave it...How to Make S'meeps: S'mores Plus Peeps
S'meeps? That's right, I went there. S'meeps are the Brangelina of the Peeps world. A classic treat (s'more/Brad Pitt) coupled with a sparkly chick (Peep/Jolie). This is a twist on the traditional s'more in honor of Peep Week and the glut of Peeps in stores everywhere. The s'meeps taste just like s'mores with an extra crunch of sugar and a happy dose of color. Consider making these as doing the rest of the world a favor. What's going to happen to all the Peeps that aren't bought and consumed/melted/frozen/mauled during the Easter season? Do they go to the old Peeps farm over in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania? Are they secretly plotting to take over the world in their Peeps lair? The...Peeps Lip Balm, Reviewed
Peeps flavored lip balms do in fact exist. Available on Amazon for $3.99, or apparently in the Target $1 bins, they come in four different marshmallow cream flavors: grape, strawberry, vanilla, and cotton candy. The best part? None of these are even real Peeps flavors. We had to order one of the intriguing sticks. Peeps Lip Balm FAQ Does it taste like melted Peeps spread all over your lips? A little. Will the Peepsy flavor linger a couple hours later when you take a sip of water? Yes. Does it moisturize? Oh my gosh, yes. Were any Peeps killed in the process? No. The ingredients, after the jump....Inside the Peep Factory, Bethlehem, Penn.
Chicago Tribune The Chicago Tribune goes inside the Just Born Peep factory in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and comes out with a slideshow of behind-the-scenes chickie production....Hot Topics: Technique of the Week | The Food Lab
