Peeps Show 2010 –the Amazing Top Entries

Peeps are the Spam of the sugar world.  Everybody loves them but who wants to eat them?

Well,four years ago the good folks at the Washington Post came up with the idea of challenging their readers to think of creative ways to use them ….and the Annual Peeps Diorama Contest was born!   Each year,I can’t wait to see the top picks,with themes both old and current to today’s world.  The entries keep getting better and better and this year’s are even more delightful and mischievous.  Who knew that the White House party crashers would be featured in not one,but two entries?  The winner,shown here,is a masterpiece celebrating the feel-good movie,‘UP!’ ,called EEP.

Click here and see all the entries.  Some are simple designs,but others,like EEP rival modeling for a movie set.

Click here to see a video that showcases the top five entries.  Get behind-the-scenes information on the craftsmanship that goes into these creations.  The details are incredible!  This contest is open to the public and they have over a 1000 entries.  Feel free to explore entries from previous years and be wowed by things you never thought could be done with these timeless,sugary Easter time icons.
