Last week we ate at Le Cellier. For dessert I had the S'more. Does anyone know how they get the sprinkles to stay on the marshmallows. I went to the store bought the marshmallows and sprinkles, toasted the marshmallow and the darn little things won't stick. :confused3 Please Help!!:worship:
 
I haven't eaten it but I have seen pics and i have eaten marshmallows!

so, suggestions:

1. Toast the marshmallows until brown then slide off the outside hard 'crust' and roll the stickey gooey part in the sprinkles.

2. Toast them and then sprintz on some water and roll them in the sprinkles to stick.

the worst thing is that you just may have to experiment over and over until it works...lol.

Have tried both of these niether worked :( thanks for the suggestion.
 
I would assume they either make the marshmellows an place the sprinkles on during the process or they dip the marshmellows in something like a thin sugar glaze to make them stick. I actually tried googling this but had no luck :confused3
 

Ok, I was just about to give up. I toasted the marshmallow and just licked the thing and stuck it in the sprinkles. The sprinkles STUCK:scared1: This is a bit scary. I am sure this in not the technique used at Le Cellier but it will be used in my house.

Don't worry there is no double dipping and everyone is in charge of their own marshmallow licking. :thumbsup2
 
I'm pretty sure it's this clear cake decorating gel you can purchase at craft's store (wilton brand) called piping gel. I took a cake decorating class with my daughter and piping gel was very frequently used for attaching sprinkles because it's clear and almost flavorless. We've had the smores a few times and the colored syrups have a very similar consistency so perhaps they make some clear and some colored/flavored syrups for the smores decorating.

I'm sticking to(no pun intended) the chocolate whiskey cake I think.

Gwarsh!!! Another Disney Magic secret out. Oh well, Pluto was getting pretty dehydrated trying to keep up.
 
We were there last week and I asked the server. It wasn't the sprinkles I was interested in, but the toasted marshmallow flavor when it looked like they didn't toast it.

He told me that they do toast it with a blow torch thing and then put the sprinkles on it while it is soft.

:thumbsup2

Yup, sounds about right - I was a pastry cook, and while I never had to stick sprinkles to marshmallows, ANYTHING sticks to hot sugar - after making several sugar sculptures, I've had the sugar manage to stick to me in several places I didn't expect :rotfl:

However, if you don't have a blowtorch, or don't want to buy one (and always get the large ones from Lowe's or Home Depot if you do, the ones from Williams-Sonoma run out of fuel almost instantaneously) - you can try spritzing the marshmallow with a sugar syrup, or flavored liquor - the sugar and alcohol content will help the marshmallows dissolve, even when simple water won't. I used to make 500-100 rice krispy treats a day as a petit fours for the servers to bring with a check, which required making them in multiple sheetpans - and how did I smooth them? Hands covered with water - it repels the marshmallow stickyness! :yay:

I cook in a children's facility and make 2 sheetpans of marshmallow treats at a time and just spray pam on my gloves and smooth them that way. Easy peasy.
