cups caster sugar
vanilla or strawberry essence
food colouring (optional)
combined cornflour and icing sugar for

1. Dissolve the gelatine in 95ml boiling
water whisking together with a fork. Keep

spoon combine the sugar, 250ml boiling
water and vanilla. Stir and add the
dissolved gelatine.
3. Mix on “LO” speed for 2 minutes slowly
increasing to “HI” speed. Leave on “HI”
speed for 10 minutes or until the mixture
becomes thick and creamy. Add a few
drops of your favourite food colouring
(optional). Beat for a further 5-7 minutes,
until mixture is very stiff and fluffy.
4. Lightly grease 2 x 22cm square tins or
similar with vegetable oil.
5. Scrape down sides of bowl occasionally
during beating.
6. Spoon mixture into tins, spread evenly.
Leave to set at room temperature,
approximately 30 minutes.
7. When firm to touch, cut into cubes or fun
shapes that the kids will enjoy. Toss in
cornflour mixture.
Note: Marshmallow mixture can also be piped
onto oiled trays, if you have a piping bag and
nozzle.
Serving suggestion:
Marshmallow’s are great served in hot
chocolates or coffee. They are a fun
afternoon treat for the kids and can be used
to make rocky road.
Rocky Road
For rocky road combine some mixed nuts,
and dried fruit and marshmallows. Mix with
melted chocolate and spread into a greased
and lined baking sheet. Set in the fridge if
it’s a hot day. Cut into slices and serve.
