My son and I are doing this today as the start of his winter break homeschool gift making week 😊 Will be including these in a homemade cappuccino mix, s'mores toffee bark and some just as is for treats🥰 Thanks for this perfect beginner tutorial! He's 12 on the 29th and is *SO EXCITED* to be about to do this.
That sounds like so much fun! And the gifts sound delicious. I love these because they are inexpensive, but fun and easy to make and make nice gifts. Early Happy Birthday to your son!
Good comparison! I have some of the strawberry with chocolate filling and peach ones in the dehydrator now. I'm planning on sending my daughter a box full of goodies for her birthday, and I thought she would enjoy them. Keeping my fingers crossed that they turn out well, but I don't think you can really go wrong with these.
I know, amazing, huh? This is a big part of what would make nice gifts. Dehydrated they really are like candy, and when you think of all the shapes ad flavors, they would be an easy, inexpensive gift.
Thank you for sharing! Also tha l you for introducing me to all those different types of marshmallows. Question. Do you think I could put the dehydrated marshmallows inside a chocolate bomb?
I know, it is a bummer. I'm so used to things shrinking when I dehydrate things - one of my favorite things about dehydrating! They will stay roughly the same size, but I think especially since they aren't squishy, they definitely take up a bit more room.
We’re finally trying this today because we found kosher mini marshmallows-Trader Joe’s sells vegan ones! (gelatin is normally from pigs unless noted.) 😱 We didn’t know this until recently.
Thanks for the tip on the Trader Joe's vegan marshmallows! I do know that gelatin is produce from hooves of different animals, including pigs. It's nice to know there is a vegan alternative! I hope you enjoy your dehydrated marshmallows!
I have heard of this, we should try it! Not a big marshmallow fan😆🤣👍I do think we will have to try some of these other flavors in baking, thank you for the great share😉
Maybe buy a small bag and try it and see what you think. Of course, it's not like marshmallows are an essential part of a healthy diet, so if you don't like marshmallows, maybe put it at the bottom of your list. :)
@@MontysnMotion Nice! If you dehydrate these, you'll have to give them a try to see if you like them. Otherwise, nice treat for your son. This would be an easy project for him to do.
At first glimpse, it looks like you’re putting marshmallows on top of a fan. 😂 I love dehydrated food especially fruit. I bet these are so good. Thanks for the share.
Don't give me any ideas about using a fan, or I may just try it, lol. I also enjoy dehydrated food. These didn't last long here, which is one reason I can't do them often. But they sure are good. Thanks for stopping by, watching, and leaving a comment.
If I dehydrated marshmallows, I would be snacking constantly until they were gone. I buy the big fluffy square ones for s’mores and just grab a handful and that’ll satisfy my sweet tooth.
@@journeyalongwithshannonakajaws they are pretty addictive, and we eat way too many when I have them. So for us, the secret is to make them very occasionally.
Hello. How did you get the scent off the Classico pasta sauce jar lid? I have saved my sauce jars. I’ve tried dish soap, the dishwasher, baking soda, vinegar…nothing works. ☹️ I hope your marshies don’t take on a saucey smell!
Thankfully, no saucy smell! I wish I could tell you how I got rid of the smell, but I've had that jar for a long time so I can't remember! If all else fails (and it sounds like it has!) you might want to try diluted bleach. Obviously, you'll need to rinse like crazy afterwards, maybe run through the dishwasher after rinsing, etc. Also, keep the lid off for quite some time to let it air out. I find if I put the lid on too soon after washing, that it seems to lock in that smell. Hopefully one of these days we'll have an easier time of getting canning jars.
Great question! I have never tried dehydrating other candies. They might just melt! I don't have a freeze dryer, but have seen others freeze dry candy, so I am sure that works. :)
You'll have to let me know how they turn out. I want to buy some of these, but we have serious problems with sweets, so I can't have too much on hand. :)
So true! I like using the small ones because it's easy but there is a lot of fun flavored ones that are larger. I dehydrated some large ones that were special shapes and flavors (e.g. peach, strawberry, green apple, etc.). They were so thick it was hard to fit them on the dehydrator trays. So they ended up kind of smashed a bit. I didn't want to cut those because of the shapes. But maybe now that I have two types of dehydrators (the Nesco and the Cosori) I may be able to do it in the Cosori by removing some of the trays. Hmmm. . . But if I just have regular large marshmallows, I think cutting them is worth a try! The wheels are turning. . . I think I see some more marshmallow dehydrating in my future. :)
@@StockingMyPantry I have stayed away from buying those bc once I found out how to make the marshmallows myself I had a boatload of ideas of my own and when I took them to work they didn't know you could make them yourself either, they came up with ideas for my next marshmallows. Lol
You're welcome! I didn't vacuum seal them, but they never last long around here! You could try vacuum sealing or using an oxygen absorber if you want to keep them longer term.
Lorrie, I'm glad it's not just us! I bought some of the strawberry with chocolate filling today, and peach with some type of jelly filling today. I'm planning on dehydrating them and sending them along with some other goodies to my daughter for her birthday. Of course, I'll have to try some myself, for quality control purposes, of course!
Hi Fareena, I can't say for sure because I don't have one. I did a quick Google search and found one article that says it can, as long as there is a dehydrating button.
Hey so i tried dehydrating the marshmallows in my air fryer and it worked! Its so crunchy but it Doesn’t have the marshmallow taste anymore. But it was a fun experience. I will definitely try other candy and see how it comes out.
I know! Just the other day in Walmart, I noticed they had quite a few types. I was in a hurry though so didn't take time to take pictures, so just found these online. I think the specialty ones will make nice gifts.
LOL. If you think the regular ones go fast, try the dehydrated ones. I can't stop eating them. This is why we can't do it very often because when we have them, we eat too many!

Very interesting! Dried they remind me a lot of those pastel after dinner mints.

Trying this today…my grandchildren love lucky charms marshmallows, she this will be great
Very interesting. I will be trying this. Like the idea of cup cake decorating.
I haven't used them on cupcakes myself, but love that idea as well. Hope you're doing well. Thanks for watching and commenting. ❤
I have never seen such a variety of marshmallow flavors as you showed in your video. Wow!!

Oh, what a fun idea! I've never tried it, so can't say for sure. But now I want to try it, lol.
You can dehydrate the pumpkin spice marshmallows, powder them and add to coffee along with your creamer.
Great idea! That sounds delicious!
Very creative. I never would have thought of dehydrating marshmallows
I hope you do! They are easy and delicious. :)
I like choice #5
It's a bummer that they may get larger after dehydrating, i have some and they take up quite a bit of space

Thanks for watching! Here are the two dehydrators I personally use and recommend: amzn.to/3EJrS3i and amzn.to/3nUxX6f .
Nicely done!
Thank you! Cheers!
Please include a link to the video you used from the Purposeful Pantry.
Sure thing! Here you go: th-cam.com/video/OU3ighaEULY/w-d-xo.html
Is it creamy and gooey in hot chocolate after melting like a regular marshmallow? You only showed powder sitting on top. Thanks
Yes! The powder definitely gets soft and gooey and so delicious!
Looks so yummy 😋 😋 😋 😋 gona try it

Enjoyed your video
Thanks for all the info! You don't see a lot of people telling you how to use them.
You're very welcome!
I love this, I am going to give it a try.
Thank you! I hope you'll love it!

You are amazing! Thank you so much
You're welcome! And you just made my day!! Hope you enjoy. I love them. :)
I dehdrate my older mini marshmallows for the sweet trail mix I make
That sounds like a great idea!

Just crossed my mind to do this. Got hearts half price from valentines day. They puffing up and searched for video. Found ya😁
That sounds like fun! This is one of those great projects that is so easy and inexpensive, and yet fun and tasty!
Hi there have you dehydrated other candys or do they have to be freeze dried?😊
Great question! I have never tried dehydrating other candies. They might just melt! I don't have a freeze dryer, but have seen others freeze dry candy, so I am sure that works. :)
I'm going to try this today! Im a new subbie!
Thanks for subbing! I hope you love these. We do!
@@StockingMyPantry Can't wait to try them, they're in the dehydrator now!👍🏻
@@TheCreativeChica That's great! You'll have to let me know how they turn out! I'll bet you can't eat just one. :)
@@StockingMyPantry Will do👍🏻
we have maple flavored marshmallows where i live
Those sound delicious!
Excelent idea 👍 , thanks
Glad you liked it!
Banana sounds interesting. I will be trying this.
You'll have to let me know how they turn out. I want to buy some of these, but we have serious problems with sweets, so I can't have too much on hand. :)
@@StockingMyPantry so I'm guessing they last longer after you dehydrate them?
@@GailsSouthernLiving yes, definitely! Also, if you ever have marshmallows that go stale, you can dehydrate them.
Those marshmallows would look cute in a cocoa bar video. I might really try this out. 🙂
You should!
I want these as a X-Mas gift
I'm sure you'd enjoy them!
There are Vegan ones on the market now...can these be used too!🌿🍚
That's nice to know! Always good to have more options for people.
You can always cut the large ones to making them smaller.
So true! I like using the small ones because it's easy but there is a lot of fun flavored ones that are larger. I dehydrated some large ones that were special shapes and flavors (e.g. peach, strawberry, green apple, etc.). They were so thick it was hard to fit them on the dehydrator trays.

You're welcome! I didn't vacuum seal them, but they never last long around here! You could try vacuum sealing or using an oxygen absorber if you want to keep them longer term.
No it'll definitely not be long-term cocoa we love cocoa I put them in my coffee also very very good
@@chrisdiane8429 I haven't tried it in coffee. That sounds great!
Totally addictive....I cannot have them in the house....LOL

@@StockingMyPantry that sounds positively decadent!
Can this be done in the ninja foodie?
Hi Fareena, I can't say for sure because I don't have one. I did a quick Google search and found one article that says it can, as long as there is a dehydrating button.
@@StockingMyPantry nice! Thank you for responding. I’ll def try it tomorrow and let you know if it worked.
@@fareenahoosein9419 I'll look forward to hearing how this works for you!
Hey so i tried dehydrating the marshmallows in my air fryer and it worked! Its so crunchy but it Doesn’t have the marshmallow taste anymore. But it was a fun experience. I will definitely try other candy and see how it comes out.
I'm planning on using my homemade marshmallows, so I turn them into marshmallow powder.
That sounds delicious! I need to try that soon!
@@StockingMyPantry apparently that's a thing lol marshmallow powder...aka sugar lol
I enjoyed your video. I'm a new friend I hope to see more from you soon. Stay connected 👍
Thanks for coming. I'll check out your channel as well!
You had me at Lucky Charms.
I love Lucky Charms! :)
Wow, how many different marshmallows 😋 that should taste marvelous, specially with hot chocolate!
I agree! I want to try something other than the basic ones!
I'm going to get some marshmallows today.😊 Great video.
Yay! Thank you! I'm sure you'll enjoy these!
I honestly had no idea there was such a large variety of marshmallows.
I know! Just the other day in Walmart, I noticed they had quite a few types. I was in a hurry though so didn't take time to take pictures, so just found these online. I think the specialty ones will make nice gifts.
Today the price is $1.12 for a 10 oz bag.
Yep! It's actually $1.18 where I am.
Classico jars are Mason jars.
You are correct in that they are both molded glass jars. But mason jars were invented in 1858 by John Mason, specifically for home canning.
Dehydrate Marshmallows? I think my house doesn't last long for it to go this far lol.
LOL. If you think the regular ones go fast, try the dehydrated ones. I can't stop eating them. This is why we can't do it very often because when we have them, we eat too many!
