I was trying to think of culinary treats that had a good shelf life, would travel well for gift giving and homemade marshmallows fit the bill. I adapted Alton Brown’s trusty marshmallow recipe to include matcha powder. These chewy, bouncy Matcha Marshmallows are the ultimate treat for anyone who loves matcha like I do! Marshmallows are usually pretty sweet, so I love how the matcha powder balances it out. Since these have a very strong matcha flavor, it’s important to use a good quality matcha powder. They’re yummy on their own as a treat, but you can also drop these marshmallows into hot milk to make a matcha latte – how cool is that? Package them up with these cute gift tags and you’re going to make anyone’s day better.
I created these cute gift tags (print here) to package the Matcha Marshmallows for gift giving.

I’ve been looking for a matcha marshmallow recipe with not too much granulated sugar b/c it’s not something I normally buy (though strangely I have some corn syrup I “inherited”). Recipe above says, “1½ Tablespoons Cups Granulated Sugar.” Hmmm…not sure what that means lol. Please clarify, thanks.

Hello, sugar is the main ingredient for marshmallows so it will be quite hard to find a recipe that doesn’t use a lot of it – you might want to look for another type of treat or dessert to make. The recipe uses 1½ Cups + 1½ Tablespoons of Granulated Sugar.

These are so good! A little sweet but perfect when added to unsweetened almond or soy milk
