new snacking crave: mischievous marshmallows

Part of the excitement of a gluten free diet is finding fun, new flavors and textures.  When I first switched to this diet, my initial experiences made me fear that everything would be bland and grainy.  If only I'd known about Marshmallow Mischief then! 

With a satisfying crunch and sweetness that isn't cloying, these bite-sized treats made with gourmet marshmallow and organic brown rice are delightful.  The day before the extraction of my wisdom teeth, I received this lovely Mischievous Sampler.  To me, it was perfect timing.  I tried a few that very night.  This little package was a great enticement during those chipmunk-cheek days as I longed for food with a crunch.

 Enclosed in the lovely box:

Top row from left to right:

• The Big Kapuna  Macadamia + White Chocolate
  This one was eaten in my car after a long day at work, one of those Murphy's law days.  It was a terrific pick-me-up, and I loved the macadamia nut on top.  I'm not usually into white chocolate, but this was delightful.
• Tall, Dark & Crispy  Organic Dark Chocolate
  This is ideal for chocolate lovers.  Mom, I'm sorry I didn't save you one.  I ate both - the second while writing this post!
• Plain Jane  Natural Vanilla
  With its simplicity, this one might be my favorite go-to flavor.  It was the first I tried, and I shared it with my boyfriend's mom, who agreed. 

Middle Row:

• Peace, Love & Peanut Butter  Cinnamon + Puree Peanut
  This was very tasty, but it was more cinnamon and less peanut butter than I expected. 
• A second Tall, Dark & Crispy (in lieu of Gingerlicious due to my ginger allergy, which I thought was quite thoughtful)
• Italian Kiss  Hazelnut + Milk Chocolate

Bottom Row:

• One, Two, Chai! Chai! Chai!  Masala Spice Tea
  I'm not generally a fan of chai, although I love the smell of it.  For those like me, think of this flavor as pumpkin spice.  (I sampled a bite but overall avoided this one due to my ginger issue.) 
• Lava Aloha  Coconut + Milk Chocolate
  I knew it would be my favorite flavor.  In the midst of Girl Scout cookie season, this was a dream.  It's like the cookie I miss most: the Samoa (formerly called a Caramel DeLight).  Mmm.  As soon as I finished it, I wanted another. 
• A second Plain Jane

I forgot to mention the very best part - they're all gluten free!!  I'm a fan of Rice Krispie treats, but these are waaaaaaay better.  They knocked it out of the park.
