Marshmallows


This is my latest craze, making fresh marshmallows. They are made of sugar, golden syrup and gelatin and combine to be the stickiest stuff ever. These are ones that myself and Emily made on Saturday, and we ended up completely covered in goo afterwards. The problem is that the mixture is so tasty that you can't help taking bits of it to eat, and you end up stuck to the utensils, then stuck to the table... it's brilliant! It starts out as a really sticky liquid then is poured (with great difficulty) into a tin to cool. When it cools it can be coated in icing sugar to stop the stickiness and cut into squares. Extremely tasty.
