Peach Marshmallow Pops (video)
Fruity peach marshmallow pops, dipped into chocolate, covered in sprinkles and made with Russian ‘zefir’ marshmallow. This Eastern European / Russian recipe yields a super light and fluffy marshmallow that simply melts in your mouth! It’s made with agar gelatin so it sets quickly and at room temperature. I absolutely love this peach flavor for the summer time! It’s peachy, fruity and delicious!

Ingredients
- 3 large egg whites
- 3/4 cup peach juice
- 2 tsp peach extract, optional
- 1 tablespoon agar gelatin
- 1 1/2 cups white granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- food coloring; optional
- 2 cups dark chocolate melts
- 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
- sprinkles and edible pearls, for garnish
- 20 treat sticks
Instructions
- Prepare all your equipment first before starting the recipe. Once your marshmallow mix is done, you'll need to work fast as it sets quickly. Line 2 to 3 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats. Arrange the treat sticks on the paper/mats. Prepare a large pastry bag with an open or closed star tip; I used Ateco #847.
- Place the egg whites into a very clean stand mixer bowl; set aside for now.
- Pour the peach juice into a small saucepan and sprinkle in the agar gelatin. Cook the mixture over medium heat until it comes to a simmer. Begin adding the sugar gradually, stirring after each addition until the sugar is absorbed. Once all the sugar is added, continue to cook the syrup over medium heat until it reaching its boiling point. Boil the mixture for 2 minutes.
- When the syrup is almost ready, whisk the egg whites on high speed to soft peak stage. One the syrup is ready, pour it into the mixing bowl in a slow and steady stream, with the mixture running on medium speed. Once all the syrup is added, pour in the lemon juice and add a few drops of food coloring. Turn the mixer up to high speed and whisk for 5 to 7 minutes, until the meringue is super fluffy and begins to set.
- Quickly transfer the marshmallow into the prepared pastry bag. Pipe generous dollops onto the prepared parchment paper/silicone mats; pipe each dollop over a treat stick. If making marshmallow sandwiches, pipe the second half onto a sheet of paper without the treat stick. Allow the treats to stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
- NOTE: the marshmallow can be made into simple sandwiches, without a treat stick. Once the marshmallow is piped, sprinkle it lightly with confectioner's sugar.
- For the chocolate garnish, melt the dark chocolate melts in a tall measuring cup. Melt the white chocolate chips in a separate bowl, then transfer into a disposable bag. Dip each pop half-way into the melted chocolate and set back down onto the paper/mat. Garnish the top with sprinkles, edible pearls and/or drizzled white chocolate. Allow the chocolate to set completely, then enjoy!
Hi Tatiana
This looks delicious. Just want to double -check: are the egg whites still raw in the final product? Thanks
Olga
Hi! No, the sugar syrup is hot enough to cook the egg whites thoroughly 🙂
These look so yummy! How long ahead can I prepare these and how to store them?
They’re delicious! I recommend storing them single layer in an airtight container at room temperature; you can layer them with sheet of parchment paper between each layer. They will be good for up to a week if stored properly.
what kind of peach juice did you use?
Is the peach juice used as a flavoring? Can you use other juices or have suggestions if it is?
Yes, it’s for flavoring. You can use just about any flavor of juice/jello mix for this recipe: raspberry, strawberry, peach, cherry, grape… Most flavors work very well! 🙂
Hi! If I needed more, can I just double the recipe?
Hi! You can absolutely double this recipe but you’ll need a very large mixing bowl. I would recommend just making the recipe twice. The marshmallow does start to set fairly quickly, then it gets hard to work with
Loving watching your videos while I’m home sick… For the marshmallow pops, if I want to use strawberry flavor, how much strawberry gelatin should I use?
I’m so glad you enjoy watching my videos! It makes so happy to hear that!
For strawberry flavored pops, you’ll need to replace the peach juice with water and add strawberry extract instead of peach extract. I use 1/4 cup strawberry jello powder combined with 1/4 cup water, then heat in the microwave until it’s dissolved. Check out this post for more details: https://tatyanaseverydayfood.com/zefir/
