- Place the water in the large bowl of a stand mixer and sprinkle the gelatin over it. Let the gelatin soak until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir if there are any dry spots.
- In a medium saucepan, mix the maple syrup, maple flavor, and salt. Put over medium heat and cook until the mixture reaches soft-ball stage (235°F to 240°F).
- Pour the syrup into the bowl with the gelatin and beat with the whisk attachment for 12 to 15 minutes until the mixture holds a stiff peak when you pull up the whisk. Immediately spread the mixture into the prepared pan, using a wet offset spatula to smooth the top. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the remaining coating mixture over the top.
- When the marshmallow has cooled and set, cut it into squares and dredge the edges of each square in the remaining sugar mixture to coat. Yield: 2 dozen 1 ½” marshmallows
