“The Culture-ist” an online magazine has recently posted an article on how there’s a new trend in the food industry. Are gourmet marshmallows becoming the new cupcakes? Marshmallows have been gaining popularity over the last few years, as these gourmet sweets are popping up. So, the question on everbody's minds, will marshmallows become the food trend of 2012?

Gourmet marshmallows are the latest sweet and tantalizing treat and in no way do they resemble your typical variety marshmallows that you can purchase in stores. They are freshly handcrafted in small consignments using all natural, carefully sourced ingredients full of flavour and squishy in texture.

They are ideal for those cold winters where a warm cup of hot chocolate, a blanket and a fire place is needed. Rich in taste, they are here to stay for the delightfulness over your caramelized fruits.

“Flavours like mango, cinnamon, espresso and chocolate-rosemary are just some of the gourmet marshmallows which are sold at “Three Tarts Bakery” in Manhattan. Other places in NYC serving these gourmet delights are Épicerie Boulud, Robicellis, Baked, and The City Bakery, which plans to hold a marshmallow art exhibition in February (The New York Times).”

If you cannot make it to NYC, you’re just a click away from your online order as you can purchase these gourmet treats from: plushpuffs.com, Levity Gourmet Marshmallows, Pete’s Gourmet, Confections and Kitty Lee Thomas Sweets.
