Candy cycles these days are ridiculous. Halloween candy coming out in August, Christmas candy showing up in early October, and now a Easter-related peeps announcement that actually came out in early October as well… it’s like fashion where they show you the next season’s line when the current season is just getting underway.
Anywho, via BrandFreak (and my friend Jane), news that Just Born will be adding chocolate-covered peeps to their Easter line-up. I hope they pick out a good quality couverture!
The Peeps are such an icon that their chocolate coating had better be the best!
Oh dear, is the chocolate covering designed to deceive Peep-haters like myself?
You know, we take a bite of a lovely looking chocolate confection before the full horror is revealed to us: that we have just bitten into a Peep!
No, let’s keep them that bright shade of yellow, nature’s warning colour. Just like bees and wasps, the yellow tells us all to “steer clear”!
(I’m not a huge Peepfan if you can tell!)
