Christian Louboutin High Heel Marshmallows

Course: snacks
Cuisine: american
Keyword: marshmallow

Ingredients

  • 2 ½ tsp powdered gelatin
  • 1/3 cup cold water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ¼ cup cold water
  • seeds from 1 vanilla bean
  • black and red food colouring
  • corn starch
  • piping bags

Instructions

  • Pour 1/3 cup of cold water into the bowl of an electric mixer and sprinkle the powdered gelatin on top. Let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Place the sugar and ¼ cup cold water in a small pot and set to medium-high heat. Stir until the sugar has melted.
  • Attach a candy thermometer to the pot and boil the sugar until it reaches 238F. Brush the sides of the pot with a wet pastry brush if sugar crystals stick to the sides.
  • Add the hot sugar to the gelatin and stir the mixture by hand whisking for a few minutes to slightly cool. Then beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed for 8-10 minutes, until soft peaks form.
  • Divide 1/3 of the marshmallow into 2 smaller bowls. Dye one bowl red and leave the other bowl white. Dye the remaining larger amount of marshmallow black. Place the marshmallow into piping bags fitted with round tips.
  • Using a sharpie, draw Louboutin shapes onto the underside of a sheet of parchment paper. Place the paper on a baking sheet and pipe the marshmallow onto the sheet, using the stencil as a guide.
  • Allow the marshmallows to sit for 2 hours, then sift some corn starch on top. Gently peel the marshmallows off the parchment paper with a butter knife and coat the undersides in corn starch. Bounce the marshmallows in a sieve a few times to remove any excess corn starch and enjoy!
