FAQs
Yes, you can roast Peeps over a fire! Roasting Peeps over an open flame is a popular Easter tradition in many parts of the world. To do so, simply skewer the Peep on a stick or metal rod and hold it over the fire until it gets golden brown and starts to bubble.
Peeps are a type of marshmallow candy, but they are not the same as regular marshmallows. While both Peeps and marshmallows are made from a mixture of sugar, corn syrup, gelatin, and flavoring, Peeps are a bit different in terms of their shape, texture, and consistency.
Yellow was the first favorite. Over the years, Peeps have expanded their color palette and now come in a wide variety of colors, including pink, blue, purple, green, and orange, to name a few. In recent years, pink has also become a popular color for Peeps, particularly during the spring and Easter season when pink represents the colors of blooming flowers.
