Tips for Making Marshmallow Peeps on a Stick
- You can use traditional Peeps or Chocolate Covered Peeps for this crafty DIY.
- Use the Peep Chicks or Bunnies to make your design.
- Readers also like making Peeps bouquets using the same method.
- Alternate your colors to make a rainbow design, or keep your peeps the same color for a monochrome look!
How Long Do Peeps Last
Peeps last and stay fresh, sweet, and edible for an incredible two years. That is, of course, if you keep them tightly wrapped in plastic. We recommend eating them within a few months of making your craft as they tend to get hard after a while.
Can you think of the possibilities! Share your Peeps Skewers at Easter brunch or tuck them in the kid's Easter baskets! Any which way, enjoy this whimsical Easter DIY!
