But now you have an excuse for a Kitchenaid. I agree, I’m not sure a hand mixer would be up for the job. But now you have an excuse for a Kitchenaid.

One day though, I hope I can get a KitchenAid or something similar, because home-made marshmallows just look SO delicious!

Cook glucose and a drop of water without stirring until it reaches 227 degrees. Immediately remove pan from heat and let it cool. You can substitute corn syrup for a home-made glucose syrup:

In the future I might try agave syrup or even Lyle's Golden Syrup, but I don't have any experience with them in marshmallow making.

But, I do not like using or eating corn syrup if I can help it. I have though about trying honey or agave syrup in place of the corn syrup. Any thought or tips on this? Great post by the way!!!
