Optimus Prime and Bumblebee Rose Tea Marshmallows

 My friend requested for some Bumblebee and Optimus Prime bakes. Since I have already made the macaron versions earlier this year, I thought why not challenge myself with the marshmallow version since I was concurrently working on another epic marshmallow project.

I couldn't find references I like because marshmallow subjects need to be on the softer side compared with using cookie or macaron as the medium. I ended up having to design Bumblebee. As there are lots of details, I could only manage 3 for each design 🤭.

I used cold brewed concentrated rose bud tea for the sugar syrup, gelatin bloom and a little to replace the water for rehydrating meringue powder. I have decided to switch to using meringue powder instead of egg whites from now on because of the convenience 🤭. You may refer to this reel for the ratio and visuals on how to do the replacement to be used with my basic marshmallow recipe from my book Deco Marshmallows.
