The Partiologist: Chocolate Dipped, Diamond Topped Marshmallows!

Chocolate Dipped, Diamond Topped Marshmallows!

Did you read the title of my post?  That's a mouthful, just like the marshmallows.  Some of the easiest sweets are some of my favorites.  Staring at the marshmallows for a long time, trying to decide if I should use regular, jumbo or even the stackers.  Seriously, I thought my husband was going to hit me over the head with a bag just so I would make a decision and buy them.  Note to self...don't take hubby to the store when you need to buy marshmallows.

Diamond Marshmallows!

These marshmallows were showcased on another dessert buffet table.  Yes, there is a complete table filled with more sweets.

Did I mention the entire marshmallow is edible.

Even the diamond attached to the front of each marshmallow pop.


Because they are made from wafer paper.

And applied with a swirl of royal icing to hold them to the marshmallow.

After I dipped the marshmallows in chocolate, I drizzled more chocolate.

You can NEVER have too much chocolate, right?

And to make them dazzle even more, I added a diamond gemstone to the top of the straw with hot glue.

And yes, I used a punch to punch the diamond from the wafer paper.  The punch is just a paper punch, not meant for food, however I like to live on the edge.

The diamond can also be removed before eating.


Diamond Cookies and Marshmallows are a girls best friend!
