83. How The Minnesota Marshmallow Created Confection Perfection

What this episode covers

Today, about half of all marshmallows sold are eventually toasted over a fire and promptly consumed, with Americans buying more than ninety million pounds of the sweet treat each year. Believe it or not, we have one big marshmallow connection right here in the Zenith City, thanks to a small, woman and veteran-owned business called The Minnesota Marshmallow. What started as a fun venture during the pandemic quickly turned into a full-fledged business, offering a lengthy list of seventy rotating marshmallow flavors and treats, each made with the highest-quality ingredients and innovative, one-of-a-kind recipes. Throw in a wholesale location in Piedmont, a spot on store shelves all across Minnesota and Wisconsin and a shiny new endeavor in the form of a food truck and you have a business that’s simply S’MORE delicious than the rest. Owner & founder Amy Sirois joins us to talk all about her delectable business.
