Peeps Cake:

A few years ago I first shared my love for all things Easter Peeps! We made this fun faux cake (it is actually a styrofoam cake form) with colorful paper peeps as a decoration. The cute paper craft cutting die, shaped like an Easter bunny Peep is sadly no longer available for sale. If I was to ever recreate this cake, I would for sure use real marshmallow peeps!
