Soft, Pillowy Cubes of Decadence
I Love You, Marshmallows
Is there such a thing as too many marshmallows?
Marshmallows - that beautiful mixture of cornflour, icing sugar, liquid glucose and gelatine
Gelatine to give it that springy spongy consistency
Spongy consistency that makes it feel like you are biting into a cloud
Cloud flavoured with vanilla or strawberry
Strawberry and vanilla need to be eaten in two
Two at a time, one of each or two of one
One marshmallow is never enough
Enough is too finite a word to describe marshmallows
Marshmallows never lie or make you cry
Cry - something I often do when I run out of marshmallows
-
Marshmallows - I love you, you soft, pillowy, sweet cubes of decadence.
