Pink Raspberry Marshmallows
I decided that since October is half over and I haven’t posted anything PINK yet, I needed to get my butt in gear. I made some Pink Raspberry Marshmallows. But if you want all the details and the recipe, you’re going to have to go over to Erin’s Food Files where I’m guest posting.

If you don’t already read Erin’s blog, you should. She’s the one who introduced me to cheesecake cakes. Ever since I saw that Red Velvet Cheesecake Cake post on her blog, I was hooked. I’ve made quite a few since then and am always brainstorming crazy combinations that would work.

Don’t forget about my Power of Pink Challenge – make something PINK by the end of the month to raise Breast Cancer Awareness!

That’s really cool! Thanks for sharing the info. 😀
I did OBG last fall and enjoyed it I need to sign up again.
thank you so much for doing this, my husband just got back from 15 months deployed!
A have a quick tip for ya- since some of the soldiers are a ways out and their mail takes sometimes 4 weeks to get there, put a piece of bread (i wrapped mine in parchment paper) in with the cookies to keep them from going stale!
Thanks for the tip Jess. I followed the instructions on the OBG website that said that bread can sometimes mold, so instead use some apple peel. So I put some apple peel between the paper towels on the top and bottom of each container.
Great post! Thanks for sharing all the info! I hope you join us again next round! I checked with my husband about the condition of the cookies he’s been receiving. It’s been taking about a week or so to get them, and he said they all have been so fresh! They have a “community” table in the hallway and he says the homebaked goodies disappear in a flash! They are all very appreciative! Thanks again for baking! I’m craving your cookies right now!!!
How thoughtful of you! Your cookies all look delicious and I’m sure they will appreciate all the effort you put into them!
Thanks! I definitely plan on doing it again. Next time I probably won’t send quite as many cookies. It did end up costing quite a bit more than I expected. That’s what I get for sending 20 dozen cookies I guess…
What a great way to show your support and share your talents. High five to you!
How thoughtful of you! I used to do this for Desert Storm, and would pack it in popcorn. Just a thought.
Keep it Sweet,

just wanted to thank you for doing this…my husband served in Iraq for 16 months (yes you read that right). He said that receiving packages means the world to them. It will be much appreciated!
What a wonderful thing to do! I bet the lucky soldier will appreciate a little sweet treat from home. 🙂
You have such a generous heart! I am sure these lovely cookies will be appreciated! 🙂
What a great idea! Thanks for sharing!
