Chocolate Covered Strawberry Marshmallows (FOOD PHOTO SHOOT)

I think it’s pretty much an undisputed fact that marshmallows are basically the most fun food ever.

Or at least the homemade ones, that is. As for the store-bought ones, I like the idea of them way more than the actual taste. Not to mention all the unpronounceable ingredients in them. That’s probably the biggest reason that I love making them at home. And, okay, yeah they’re not the greatest thing nutrition-wise even homemade, but at least they start out with real ingredients like fresh berries and grass-fed gelatin as opposed to a mile-long list of words that starts with red #40 and ends with artificial flavors.

One of the projects I’ve been working on is using all of the randomness that accumulates in our freezers over the year. It hasn’t been a huge focus recently because I’ve been extra busy, but things have slowed down enough that I figured it was time to finish it. With the fact that I’m a food blogger who’s always making too much of a new recipe or wanting to have some things made ahead for emergencies, I’m constantly shoving stuff into the freezer.

Most of what I freeze is fruit throughout the summer though, namely berries. I have a few ginormous bags of frozen strawberries that I’ve been trying to use up so......marshmallow time!

These would be the perfect treat to make for your kids and for them to share with their friends. I’m sure moms will appreciate the fact that they are homemade. You could even wrap them in some pretty and festive paper for whatever occasion you want.

Anyway, these mallows are perfect for way more things than just gifts. I may even repurpose some for another recipe soon to give you guys some ideas. OOOH, wouldn’t strawberry s’mores be amazing???? Correct answer: -> YES! These really are pretty easy to make but I have a feeling that if you go through the effort of making them then you’re the type who will already have plenty of ideas for using them. So go do it and I hope you love em!
