I love when a you can whip up a sweet treat quickly and easily, with very few ingredients, and it is not only simple, but it is also super cute. These Easter Peeps Pops totally fit that bill! Adorable!
Ahh, how cute are these darn Peeps Pops? I’m totally in love with them!
Seriously, keeping it simple with these ones. First I placed my Marshmallow Peeps Bunnies onto paper straws. Next, I dipped them in white chocolate and then I added a pretty pearly Sixlet to each one, as the perfectly little pearly tail. Instead of Little Peter Cottontail, we have Little Peter Pearly Tail!
LOVE!
The white chocolate lets a tiny bit of the PEEPS color show through, as you can see in the above photo. If you do not want to have any color show through, I would advise giving them a double dip in your white chocolate prior to placing the Shimmer Sixlets onto them.
I’ve been whipping up Peeps Pops for years, but these just might be my favorite yet. Combining the Shimmer Sixlets and fun striped paper straws in matching colors makes this simple treat super cute. You can see more about how I make my Peeps Pops in this post…
It really is super simple. A standard size bag of white chocolate candy coating will cover about 20-24 of these marshmallow bunnies.
They are super cute even without the chocolate, but the chocolate, sweet straws from Sweets and Treats Boutique and Shimmer Sixlets (check your baking isle at Walmart for these!) tails really take them over the top.

Could you add coconut oil to the candy melts to make it thinner and maybe cover bunnies easier? Did you do them down into a glass?

Hello! I made these and they were cute but how did you get them so smooth? My white chocolate did not look this neat? š
Christi Johnstone says
Michelle, did you use the candy melts or white chocolate chips? Candy melts usually work much better as they are made to melt smoothly.
