Peeps Took 27 Hours To Make, Peeps dioramas, Takes 6 minutes to make one peeps--In the 1950′s, it took 27 hours to make one of these, now it takes about six minutes to make one. I gave a hint that they will be a popular item this weekend.

The new Peeps store is enjoying its first Easter at the Mall of America.

The store is one of three Peeps stores in the country and opened its doors in December.

This year, two new versions of Peeps are being introduced. Chocolate Dipped Mousse Chicks, along with with Peeps Rainbow Pops are on the shelves.

Fun Peeps facts:

Peeps are produced in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

In 1953 it took 27 hours to create one Peep marshmallow chick. Today it takes just 6 minutes.

Enough Peeps are produced in one year to circle the earth twice.
