Once upon a time, when I was young girl (back in the Stone Age), I looked forward to Easter for many reasons. Not only did I enjoy a basket full of candy and going on an Easter Egg hunt, but I also enjoyed receiving marshmallow Peeps. My Easter basket was not complete without Peeps.
As the years went by my beloved Peeps started to show up at other holidays too. They were no longer just for Easter. Now you can buy Peeps for the various seasonal holidays like Halloween, Christmas and Valentine’s Day. I tend to stock up on Peeps so that I can eat them long after the holidays are over.
I am thrilled to announce that Peeps are now available all the time in a mini form. Yeah! Now myself and other Peep lovers can enjoy the sweet marshmallow treats all year long.
New Peeps Minis are available in three yummy flavors – Strawberry Creme, Chocolate Creme and Sour Watermelon.
Each bag contains 24 mini Peeps. Each mini Peep is only 14 calories each (10 Mini Peeps is the suggested serving size @ 140 calories), making Peeps Minis a tasty treat that won’t wreck your diet.
Even though 10 Peep Minis makes up a serving size I was content to have just 2-3 at a time.
I received all three flavors to review. I assumed the Chocolate Creme would be my favorite since I love chocolate but it turns out that the Sour Watermelon was my #1 favorite Peep Mini flavor.
I took a photo of all three varieties (flavors) next to a regular size Peep.
As you can see they are considerably smaller in size, but certainly not in flavor. They are very flavorful.
Now you can snack on Peeps any time you want. You can even pack them with lunch or enjoy them on the go (I’d recommend keeping them cool during the summer months). You can also use the Peep Minis to decorate cupcakes and put on top of a bowl of ice cream.
Look for Peeps Minis on a store shelf near you.

I would love to try these new peep flavors. strawberry creme, chocolate creme, and sour watermelon. I would expect my favorite to be chocolate creme but I have a feeling that my fave will be the sour watermelon. Thank you for sharing this review.
