Whenever marshmallows enter the equation, fun’s on the way. But let’s face it, their quirky looks and the pleasure we get from squishing them can’t hide the fact marshmallows often need a flavor boost. In her newest On Demand recipes, Chef Melissa brings you a fantastic array of flavored marshmallow recipes that are here to make us remember why we love them in the first place. A PB&J marshmallow recipe sets the tone for other three confections evoking bonbons, like her enrobed vanilla, rose, and Oreo marshmallow. Chef Melissa’s marshmallow recipes are a true creative quest capable of turning these chewy and spongy treats into something bold!
With a mesmerizing rippled shell, Chef Melissa brings you a dessert bar inspired by our favorite peanut butter, caramel, and chocolate treat: Snickers. To the already crunchy peanut duja layer that gives this all-time comfort snack its distinctive flavor, we add a layer of feuilletine to enhance the texture of the filling. Our perfectly balanced vanilla bean soft caramel also shares the spotlight in this dessert bar. In addition to being the perfect nostalgic recipe for mastering peanut butter and caramel, this recipe includes a step-by-step guide to pre-crystallizing the chocolate, making the dessert bar shells, and painting them, so you can bring these bars to perfection.

The result is a series of bites brought to life by colorful natural powders, as well as layered textures, that are simply mouthwatering and ideal for any chocolate business!
Delicately dotted with silver flakes on its shell, this bonbon hides a bright and creamy inside.
