Hi Jennifer! The number in the parenthesis represents the total amount needed for the recipe. 🙂 I can add a note. 🙂

An update may save someone else the trouble.

Hi Jennifer! They typically are .25 ounces and you need 3. I’m so glad you enjoyed them! 🙂

I used 3 packets of .25 and the marshmallows turned out perfect.

Hi Janine! I haven’t tried it, but I think it could work.

could the marshmallow mixture be poured into a molded cake tin? like a tractor teddy bear for school?

I’ve made this recipe for a few years now. Very popular

Hi Liz! The temperature here is very important so if you can somehow mount that thermometer and keep a close eye on the temperature then it could work. 🙂

Hi Jessica! Almond or rose water would work just fine as would the nuts. I haven’t experimented with the honey so I can’t say for sure how that would work. I’m so glad you enjoyed them! 🙂

Amazing treat! Not store bought marshmallows at all. They’re almost like a slightly chewy divinity. Not usually a fan of candy thermometer recipes but I would totally make this again.
However, I would love to try other flavors. Would this work with almond flavoring or rose water too? Nuts? Also, can honey be used in place of corn syrup?

Hi Andrea! I haven’t tried it, but if you do, I would love to know how it turns out. 🙂

For anyone looking to up their s’mores game on their next outdoor adventure, this is the way to do it! We made these delicious marshmallows in advance, along with homemade Graham crackers. Sandwich with a generous square or 4 of chocolate and voila, instant winner! They behaved like store bought marshmallows do but taste better! The only thing I would recommend is not to put them on red hot poker to roast, as they will melt off. Thanks again Sam!

Hi Andrea! I have been wanting to try it, but haven’t quite tried it yet. It’s on my summer to do list. I think they will do just fine. If you try it I would love to know how it goes. 🙂

Just wondering if you or anyone else has tried toasting these in a fire/making s’mores with them??? Can’t wait to try them!

Hi Colette! I would just dip them right in the chocolate. I would still use the powdered sugar as it keeps the marshmallows from sticking to absolutely everything, just tap off the excess before dipping. 🙂
