How we make these products

We make our dark chocolate marshmallows by first creating fluffy, vanilla-scented marshmallows from scratch using sugar, corn syrup, gelatin, and pure vanilla extract. Each marshmallow is hand-dipped and fully enrobed in premium dark chocolate made from cacao, sugar, and cocoa butter, creating a thick chocolate shell that gives way to the soft, pillowy center.
The marshmallow base is whipped to achieve that classic melt-in-your-mouth texture, incorporating just enough air to make it light without being insubstantial. After the marshmallows set and cure, we temper our dark chocolate to exactly 88-90°F, ensuring a glossy finish and satisfying snap when you bite through the coating. Each piece is dipped by hand, allowing excess chocolate to drip away before the marshmallow is placed on parchment to set—a process that takes patience but results in a perfectly balanced ratio of chocolate to marshmallow in every bite.
What Makes It Special
Hill Country Chocolate's marshmallows stand apart because we make both components—the marshmallow and the chocolate—in our Fredericksburg, Texas facility. While many chocolatiers purchase pre-made marshmallows, we control every step from the initial sugar syrup to the final chocolate coating. Our dark chocolate contains no artificial flavors, just pure cacao, sugar, cocoa butter, and a touch of vanilla, allowing the contrast between the bitter chocolate and sweet marshmallow to shine through.
How to Enjoy
Store at room temperature for the ideal texture—the marshmallow stays soft while the chocolate maintains its snap. These pair beautifully with coffee or can be enjoyed as an after-dinner treat, and they make an elegant addition to hot chocolate when floated on top.

Product FAQs

Q: Does the Dark Chocolate Marshmallow contain gluten or nuts? 
A: The Dark Chocolate Marshmallow contains milk and soy but no gluten ingredients. Hill Country Chocolate products are made on equipment shared with peanuts, nuts, and tree nuts, so cross-contamination is possible. The marshmallow itself contains gelatin, which is not vegetarian-friendly.

Q: How should I store Dark Chocolate Marshmallows and how long do they last? 
A: Store marshmallows in a cool, dry place between 60-70°F away from direct sunlight. The chocolate coating protects the marshmallow center for 3-4 weeks when properly stored. Avoid refrigeration as condensation can cause the chocolate to bloom and the marshmallow texture to become dense.

Q: Can I ship Dark Chocolate Marshmallows as a gift during summer? 
A: Hill Country Chocolate ships with temperature-controlled packaging when needed. During Texas summers, we recommend selecting expedited shipping and having packages delivered to an attended address. The marshmallow center is more heat-stable than pure chocolate, making these a better warm-weather choice than truffles.

Q: What pairs well with Dark Chocolate Marshmallows? 
A: Dark Chocolate Marshmallows pair excellently with coffee, especially medium-roast single origins that complement the chocolate's intensity. For wine, try a ruby port or Banyuls—the sweetness matches the marshmallow while the dark fruit notes echo the chocolate. They also make an elegant s'mores upgrade when lightly toasted.

Q: What makes Hill Country Chocolate marshmallows different from store-bought versions? 
A: Each marshmallow is hand-dipped in premium dark chocolate with 60% cacao content, creating a thick shell that provides textural contrast to the fluffy center. The marshmallow itself is made with real vanilla extract and inverted sugar for a smoother, less grainy texture than mass-produced versions. Made in small batches in Fredericksburg, Texas, they're significantly larger than commercial chocolate-covered marshmallows.
