The Good Stuff Great idea having the puffy cover for the cookbook - really adds to the overall enjoyment of the book Original idea Fantastic for bringing unique housewarming treats (Wife says also fab for wowing authors, publishing and twitter pals -- not to mention sugar happy co-workers) Lots of unique and unusual recipes for different occasions Quite a few different tastes and textures The introduction is extremely helpful (MUST READ BEFORE STARTING ANY OF THE RECIPES), interesting and highly entertaining - it really gets you in the mood to experiment and have fun Wife and I had a great time on a rainy February afternoon trying out the different treats - 10 yr old even helped Fun change of pace from cookies, fudge and chocolate - it will impress friends and family From our experience we really recommend you put all your ingredients/tools together before you start your recipe as many steps really must be done quickly.The Not So Good Stuff Should be a disclaimer - Don't try to make the recipes before you read the introduction Another good suggestion would be mentioning if you don't have a stand mixer (must get one soon) that it would be extremely beneficial to have two people working together to make these. Wife made two batches by herself and was a wee bit stressed while doing it but when we worked together it was so much smoother and she didn't get all snappy or depressed afterwards (yes readers he says crap like this all the time, and no I have not killed him yet - though tempting I tell you) Once you have tasted one of these homemade marshmallows -- you will never ever want to have a bagged one again!Favorite Recipes Cookies n' Cream Marshmallows Concord Grape Marshmallows Margarita Marshmallows (Get yourself a good lime juice though!) Sea Salt Caramel Swirl Marshmallows Mallow Cones (Wife gave these to Anne Rice)Who Should/Shouldn't Use I would recommend this to anyone who knows their way around a kitchen and who doesn't get intimidated easily (what he really is saying is not for my wife LOL!) Definitely for the more experience cook/baker - although my wife did get a hang of it pretty quickly If you are going to make these recipes all the time -- trust us -- buy a stand up mixer - our really good hand held one took a beating and probably will never be the same again4.75 Dewey'sI received this from Random House in exchange for an honest review
