Colorful marshmallows are a true embodiment of joy and culinary creativity. Their history began with classic marshmallows, but through bold experiments, they transformed into a vibrant treat that can lift spirits. Their delicate airy texture, light sweetness, and subtle caramel notes make them the perfect dessert for holidays and cozy evenings. The use of various food colorings gives each piece a unique hue, creating a rainbow effect. These marshmallows can be served on their own, added to cocoa, used to decorate desserts, or even roasted over a fire while enjoying their melting heart. The ease of preparation and the opportunity to express creativity make them an excellent choice for those who love to create magic in their kitchen.
