Hi, Anyone ever used marshmallow before? Does it stick like glue and a devil to get off, or is it a wonder substance?!!

Yeah, a few times ( I trust you refer to marshmallow fluff). If you are thinking of using it, either use it first in a session or use it as the only thing- adding it onto yourself/someone already messy is pointless really, in my opinion! Similar to treacle and syrup, it will wash off with a hot shower...maybe with a little bit more of a scrub than most things though. I've never even tried to save any clothes it's been used on, so I can't comment on their survival!

If you melt actual marshmallow it sticks so much it can rip your skin so be careful with that... best use marshmallow fluff instead

Fluff? is that the stuff they put on top off your hot chocolate?

Marshmallow Fluff is an American product, you can find it online on most places that import US foods, although I've not found it very cheaply (typically £2+ per jar). It gives excellent thick sticky coverage and washes off reasonably easily with hot hot water.

Thanks or your input folks, think i'll give it a miss

Fluff is much to expensive! I love melted marshmallows but as said earlier it can leave bruises on your skin. Very easy to remove with a warm shower.
Here are some pics that I posted some years ago. viewtopic.php?f=1&t=1735

Marshmallow fluff I've seen in Asda and now more recently tesco at about £2 a jar

can I safely use the normal stuff which goes in hot chocolate etc? The brightly covered cylinder stuff?

This is the stuff you want

as I say in tesco/asda £2 a jar. Very sticky but won't bruise you!

I knew I'd seen a recipie for making your own fluff, but couldn't for the life of remeber where......until now!!!! Here it is, found on UMD - enjoy!!
