    STRAWBERRY

Sprinkle a mix of 1/3 dextrose, 1/3 glucose powder and 1/3 potato starch on the marshmallows. Remove the marshmallow balls from the sheet with a pallet knife or cut the marshmallow slab into desired shapes and roll through the icing mixture again. Tip: dipping the marshmallows into Callebaut Strawberry flavoured chocolate gives them an extra luxurious touch.
