I’m also sure that your sister is much more adventurous in the kitchen than I.

It really does look like a dolphin Peep, if there was a dolphin Peep. There is now. Maybe for Dolphin Day?

Mark, I think your sister should be complimented, not only for making a lovely and probably delicious cake but also for being a good sport about you ribbing her here in public.

Maybe you should have a peek cake making competition? As you didn’t post it, found the recipe here: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/peep-cake-recipe/index.html

  I know it’s a bad sign when a recipe calls for ’2 packets of yellow cake mix’. Ye, that’s not a recipe.

Cool, I saw a write-up about this recipe on Instructables as well: http://www.instructables.com/id/Giant-Peep-Cake/

We enjoyed one as well, with chocolate cake! Apparently the photo didn’t upload. Hmmm.
