PETE'S GOURMET CONFECTIONS:
As a young child, Peter
would regularly stand at the side of his grandmother’s apron
assisting her in making her delicious, homemade marshmallows. As an
adult, he was often disappointed in the texture and tastes of what
store bought marshmallows had become.
When Peter’s son turned four, Peter’s memories of cooking
marshmallows and candies with his grandmother were reawakened. He
found himself drawn to the kitchen to recreate the same tastes and
experiences he delighted in as a child for his son and daughter.
After hundreds of batches, Peter perfected his grandmother’s famous
marshmallow recipe. His son, Ethan, was enchanted by the
marshmallows and together they began to create stories about a
little boy named Marshall Mallow who lived in a land where
marshmallows grow on trees. One day, while picking mallow’s,
Marshall hoped to pick strawberry and lemon mallows from the tree.
And naturally flavored mallows were born. It was just a matter of
time before Marshall’s mallows dipped into the caramel river and
immersed themselves under a waterfall of luscious dark chocolate…
