For those of you who subscribe to my e-mail updates, the last one didn't have the video link - so if you'd like to see it, please visit the blog at http://motivationbychocolate.blogspot.com/

For the rest of you - how funny are these Peep Kabobs?


They are so cute peeking out of their little box!

And this is a Peep Easter parade!!  Love those cuties! 

Since they come on a stick, they are perfect for roasting over a fire.  Yum!

Just Born is going crazy with the chocolate!  Last year they introduced chocolate covered Peeps, this year they've taken it to a whole new level with Peepsters.

Peepsters come in both dark and milk chocolate and Just Born is testing two packaging designs.  One is clearly trying to pattern itself after Dove and their Promises - chocolate as a luxury.  Rich, silky chocolate for grownups:


And then there's this packaging for the Peeps lover - see how big the trademark word Peeps is here?  Much smaller on the other package.


I love the Peep shaped window:



The bags are filled with these individually wrapped dark chocolate marshmallow filled treats:



What took me by surprise was how much more chocolate than marshmallow there was.  These taste way more like chocolate than marshmallow.  And they are really good!

They also come in milk chocolate:




These taste really good - nice chocolate and a slightly sweeter filling.  I couldn't even decide which one I liked the best = both the dark chocolate and the milk chocolate were delish.  Perfect little size - try them!!

Three Musketeers has a marshmallow Easter entry:


Would you believe the Three Musketeers is MORE marshmallowey than the Peepster?  It's a crazy chocolate world - where chocolate bars cross over to marshmallow and Peeps (of all things) go chocolate.


Just goes to show you - your past doesn't have to define your future.  This Easter (and the rest of your life) and be anything you make it.

I really want to try the peepsters and marshmallow mustketeers but haven't been able to find the latter.

Hi Rodzilla! I can't remember if I found those at Target or Rite Aid. But I do remember it was early on, so they might be gone. So much candy, so little time! Hope you like the Peepsters! Thanks for the comment!
