Chocolate Filled Strawberry Marshmallow Bouquet

 This is rather last minute but I have decided to share how to make this edible bouquet made out of marshmallows!

The marshmallow flowers are all filled with chocolate!

The marshmallow recipe and technique is different from all the plushiemallows I have been making. These are actually traditional Russian marshmallows called Zephyr or Zefir which are agar and fruit-based. No gelatin is used for the version I follow so there is no pork, beef or fish source in there. I use lots of strawberries in this bouquet. The pink roses are coloured with the strawberries and a little strawberry paste so no additional food colouring is added!

The challenge of making Zephyrs is the precision required of each step and you have to work relatively fast. But I will try and show you how to make it manageable. 

Class details will include technique of making Zephyr, how to pipe hydrangeas and roses, and fill them with chocolate. And of course how to form a simple bouquet with materials that you either have at home or are easily available from supermarkets.

Here's a short video of how bouncy they are! Less bouncy than plushiemallows due to the use of different ingredients and technique, and also due to the chocolate filling inside, but nonetheless still unmistakably marshmallowy bouncy!

Both online and hands-on classes are available. Hands-on participants will have access to online class material at no extra charge. There is no expiry and you can watch the pre-recorded class unlimited number of times and you may ask me questions if you encounter difficulty.
