PEEPS!
Peeps.
Love or hate ’em they are a sure sign Spring is on its way. At work, we spend a lot of time away from windows and sometimes it just feels like the seasons change right under your nose. I whipped these up last night as a reminder of better weather ahead- boxed mix and canned frosting. I did dress them up a bit by filling them with raspberry jam and putting in a splash of princess cake bakery emulsion (you know it- that indescribable but ubiquitous flavor of grocery store bakery sugar cookies). It is amazing how something as small as piped on frosting is enough to make things more special. Sure, these may err on the side of cheesey, but these little guys sure seemed to put everyone in a little better mood, whether or not they eat the peep in the end.
