marshmallow subway art
This week is all about…. marshmallows!! Marshmallows are so quick and easy to decorate. Of course, there are plenty o’ marshmallow decorating ideas in Sugarlicious. By the way, have you pre-ordered yet? This week I’m making marshmallow subway art
how to draw on marshmallows
To learn more about the different brands of edible writers and how to use them, CLICK HERE to see my prior post. For fine-line decorating, I prefer the FooDoodler 10-pack Fine Line food coloring markers. Did I mention I’m giving FIVE of you a pack? I give and give for the sake of food art.
Some tips on making subway art marshmallows:
- Gather your words. I did some that are Sugarlicious-related, but I also considered Valentine’s Day words, like “love,” “you,” “me,” “heart,” “sweetie,” “whips” (hey, I don’t know what you are all into…)
- Open a document with a word program and type your words in a bunch of different fonts. Then use the markers to copy the words and fonts, making some words large, some small, some vertical, some horizontal.
- If it helps, cut out a slip of paper 1-inch by 4-inches. This is about the size of a marshmallow if you were to wrap the paper around the side of the marshmallow. Then, plan out your subway art first. I wasn’t so precise and just eyeballed it.
- Add a lollipop stick if you like.
And I made some Valentine’s Day ones, too.
And if subway art isn’t your thing, you can do a lot more with edible writers.

Too cute! I only decorate marshmallows with fire, and occasionally with chocolate and graham crackers…but these would be too cute for a chocolate fondue party!

What great inspiration you're giving us! My 12 year old granddaughter has developed a love for decorating and would absolutely have a blast using the "pens". Thanks so much for this opportunity!
