Critical Success Points

  • Do not exceed 38‑40 °C when melting chocolate in the microwave.
  • Reach exactly 130 °C for the syrup to achieve the proper texture.
  • Incorporate the hot syrup into the whites while whisking to avoid curdling.
  • Use the marshmallow still warm when piping for good flow.
  • Allow the chocolate to fully crystallize before unmolding.

Safety Warnings

  • Melted chocolate and syrup reach high temperatures; handle with kitchen gloves.
  • Use the thermometer to avoid overheating the syrup (burn risk).
  • Gelatin sheets can be slippery; handle with care.
