Wikipedia: Peeps
Peeps are a marshmallow confection marketed since 1953 in the United States and Canada in the shape of chicks, bunnies, and other animals as well as holiday shapes produced by Pennsylvania-headquartered Just Born Quality Confections.
   
Originally promoted primarily at Easter, Peeps have subsequently been marketed as “Always in Season”, and have expanded to Halloween, Christmas and Valentine’s Day.
