Hey guys! I have been baking and working non-stop these days but, this particular recipe was the result of a sudden idea that I had. I was craving strawberry marshmallows for days but, I couldn’t figure out how to make them as all the recipes I wanted to use contained freeze-dried strawberries or fresh strawberries and, I do not have access to any of those at present. I was disheartened because I had totally forgotten about the packet of strawberry Jell-o in my pantry! This recipe uses only four ingredients and one of them is water hahaha. 

All you need is:

  • Strawberry Jell-O
  • Sugar
  • Light corn syrup
  • Water

You can add a pinch of salt if you want to enhance all the flavours a bit.

  • Light Corn Syrup
  • Jell-O Strawberry
  • Blue Bird Corn Flour, 100g
  • Sunflower Oil
  • Caster Sugar

Please follow the recipe as is, there are no substitutes or alternatives so far, I will list them as and when I find them I promise. Vegetarian jelly crystals that contain agar-agar will not work for this recipe.

The EASIEST Strawberry Marshmallows

Prep Time 30 minutes
Resting time 8 hours
Total Time 8 hours 30 minutes
Servings 16 squares
Author bakesalotlady

Ingredients

Strawberry base

  • 85 g Strawberry Jell-O ONE PACK
  • 80 ml water

Sugar syrup

  • 150 ml light corn syrup
  • 100 g sugar regular or granulated
  • 100 ml water

For the pan:

  • 200 g icing sugar
  • 200 g cornflour

Instructions

Marshmallows

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, empty the contents of the strawberry jell-o pack and add the 80 ml water. Stir to combine and set it aside.
  • Take a 9×9 inch baking pan grease it with a flavourless oil generously everywhere. Coat the insides of the pan with equal parts icing sugar and cornflour. I sift the mixture onto the pan and shake it to coat evenly. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT STEP to avoid the marshmallows from sticking to the pan.
  • In a heavy bottomed saucepan add the sugar, light corn syrup and water. On medium-low heat, bring this mixture up to 240F (use a candy thermometer).
  • When the mixture reaches 240F take it off the heat. Start the stand mixer on low speed and very slowly drizzle this hot sugar syrup along the side of the bowl as the mixer keeps running. BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL.
  • Once all the syrup is poured, crank up the speed to high and let it whip for 8 minutes or until the bowl is cool to touch. The mixture will become extremely light and fluffy.
  • At this stage, work quickly and transfer this marshmallow fluff to the prepared pan and spread it evenly as best as you can. The mixture will start setting very quickly and it will be extremely sticky. Sift some of the icing sugar and cornstarch mixture on the top surface and let it sit outside on the counter to dry overnight.

Cut into squares:

  • One a clean and dry surface, sift the icing sugar and cornstarch mixture evenly and invert the dried marshmallow from the baking pan.
  • Take a very sharp knife, grease it slightly with a flavourless oil and make straight sharp cuts to cut your marshmallow to your desired size.
  • Sprinkle more of the icing sugar and cornflour mix and toss them to coat all sides.
  • Enjoy!
  • Light Corn Syrup
  • Jell-O Strawberry

SWIPE to see more of this EGGLESS Saffron, Pistachio and White Chocolate Cheesecake. I have made this beauty in collaboration with @matshiroflavours using their Saffron extract and as always I am so beyond happy with this range, it’s Ossoro Flavours’ premium range of pure extracts and I am gonna go get my hands on the entire range now.

Strawberry season is fleeting and this cake is another favourite from the blog. The one on the website is a MANGO version but you just need to replace it with strawberries and it’s so good you will not want to share!😄 I ended up burning this one a little but hey, that’s life right? We mess up a little sometimes. However, I can assure you that we devoured every crumb of it🤤 What are your plans for the weekend? Are you baking something? This recipe is linked in my bio🤗
You guys really like it when I elaborate on the details of a recipe on my blog addressing everything from ingredients to the textures and temperatures which is why I have been working on a pound cake recipe that has legit the most even crumb and if I’m being honest, I think I have nailed it but the perfectionist inside me wants to check it just one more time before posting it on the blog.
