    My family has been in the candy business for nearly 100 years. You can stir the batch and much as you want, it will not turn to sugar. You much wash the sides of the pot down with hot water periodically however.
    Generally after the sugar has dissolved we generally don't stir it because there is no need.

    I have been making marshmallows for many years. (Over 40 years!) The only difference is that the recipe I use does not use the corn syrup. Summertime the stores used to come out with toasted coconut coated marshmallows. So, I toast coconut and roll mine in that. It is a winner! Nothing compares to the homemade marshmallow. (My recipe came from the "Farm Journal Homemade Candy Cookbook". I hope everyone tries them.

      Would you have a recipe that uses gelatin sheets at all please? In the UK we tend to have sheets not granules of gelatin and I've found it so hard to convert successfully as all recipes use granules! (gold 200 bloom is the standard type)

    It's actually surprising how easy marshmallows are to make at home - I made them one year as a gift when I was on a very tight budget and I think it's still probably one of the best-received gifts that I ever gave to people.
    Edit: It always puzzles me to see comments where people expressing surprise/horror about how much sugar is involved in making candy. I'm honestly not sure what some people think candy is made from! LOL

Just like the people who give a recipe 1 star reviews and then go on to list all the substitutions and deviations they took. YOUR recipe sucked, you didnt make THIS.

    Thank you so much. I've just watched what feels like 700 videos on marshmallows and finally someone said how long it takes for gelatine to "bloom".
    Plus you're style is very watchable. Unlike some who seem to go for the "doouchie super bowl voice over I'm way too enthusiastic and need to be slapped" voice lol

    Love making homemade marshmallows. I offer them thru my business, Kathy's Kernels. I use a large pizza cutter to cut the length of the marshmallows. Then I use scissors to cut each individual square. I also roll then in powder sugar and put 2 at a time in a sieve and shake the excess sugar off. Works like a charm. Thanks for the video!

I don't like marshmallows at all, at least the store bought ones. But THESE marshmallows are DE 👏🏼LI 👏🏼CIOUS lol. Despite the sugar, corn syrup and honey (I used maple) you can hardly taste it because it just melts in your mouth. Thank you Liz, for another winner recipe ❤️🙏🏼

    Now, that I am a Grandmother, l no longer make Marshmallows... I make “Nanny-Mellows”. They were officially renamed by my eldest Grandchild back in 2008 when he was six. I have tinted my Mellows, used all kinds of extracts... l have even cut them with metal cookie cutters. It’s not easy cutting out Star shaped Mellows! 🤦🏻‍♀️ l also love to dip them in Dark Chocolate. (It’s easier if you only dip 2/3 of your Mellow into the chocolate.)
    I’ve been “Binge” watching your videos for a couple of hours now and you had me in stitches with this one. Thank You from the bottom of my heart! ♥️

    Thank you for completely explaining why you don’t stir the sugar while it’s cooking AND putting on the lid so the condensation keeps sugar crystals from forming. For some reason my brain likes to know the “why” of things.
