I am smug like a smug thing and posting about it very belatedly.

Why am I smug?

I am smug because, using this recipe, substituting light agave nectar for corn syrup and granulated xylitol for granulated sugar (ETA: and powdered xylitol for confectioner's sugar), and using Kolatin brand gelatin ...

... I have successfully made kosher sugar-free marshmallows.

They taste like marshmallows. They have the right texture. You can toast them.

I am pretty sure this means I win. :D :D :D

WINNAR!!! Did I mention you were AWESOME?

Will have to try them. Yay!

Dang! Congrats! You win internets for such an accomplishment.

Woot!

For extra credit: could you make them non-poisonous to

ladymondegreen? Would Splenda work in place of Xylitol?

S'mores!

That's worth some smugness!

WELL PLAYED.

You do, in fact, win.

Yay! You win, indeed.

It occurs to me I shall have to pass this on to

codeamazon, another Jewish friend of mine who is just as awesome as you are, only in different ways... 'cept you both cook most awesomely. (She's been doing Hanukkah for her synagogue for several years now... cooking for 200!)

Nice! I have had vegan marshmellows (we even had a marshmellow contest at work betwixt vegan marshmellows and my boss's treif marshmellows), but not, I think, sugar-free vegan (or kosher) marshmellows.

You definitely win!

You *totally* win.

BTW I must have an old email for you, because I tried to send one yesterday and it bounced. Short version: I sorry, I must reschedule our Feb. 26th visit as I will be going on a cruise. (Itself rescheduled because mom has jury duty.) Are you free the following Sunday or the Shabbas after that? Or should we try for a weeknight?
