    Default Vegan marshmallows sale

    Have been asked to post on behalf of a friend who has told me about a great offer/deal for vegan marshmallows!

    Vegan marshmallows are now being sold on ebay - mis-shapes ones at reduced prices.

    The idea of this is that money raised from the sale of the mis-shapes will go to help a dog rescue that is really struggling.

    I wont put the direct link but if you Put" vegan marshmallows" in the search on Ebay & there they are! Bag of 4 flavours, £1.99.( Website is Sweet Vegan if anyone wants to check out the ingreds)

    I tried some of these recently at a fundraising event and they really are good - mis-shapes are ideal for hot choc topping or rocky road style bars!

    Just ordered 3 bags myself for me and friends

    Please cross post/tell friends!

    Thanks

    Glad you got some - there will be more soon!

    They are so yummy and the proceeds of these mis-shapes go to a struggling dog rescue

    I don't like marshmallows but I might buy some anyway as I know someone who'll be interested.

    Perhaps they should mention the dog rescue on the listing, Alison, as it might be good for business? Also I think if the rescue is a registered charity eBay will do a special deal http://pages.ebay.co.uk/ebayforcharity/help.html Apologies if the friend already knows this.

    They are indeed - I love the strawberry ones and the vanilla are great on top of Montezumas hot choc

    Just found out the charity the funds are going to:

    I bought some as well after working out that there were several separate listings of different flavours all from the same person - didn't fancy banana somehow!

    I got banana as that was all I could see and I love banana stuff anyway. There were other listings today but didn't look like the same person.

    Oh dear - hope I haven't ordered the wrong ones Will go and look again.

    I like bananas but for some reason I'm not so keen on things flavoured with bananas. Picky, moi?

    ETA they seem to be from the same seller, so fingers crossed.

    When I ordered they had to contact me to ask what flavours I wanted so perhaps they've done separate listings to make things clearer. (But how many misshapes can there be? Are they just chopping up normal ones?!)

    Possibly. Their mishapen price isn't that great, considering the amount you get (gram for gram vs others).

    I think it's pretty good. £1.99 for 150g rather than £4.99 for 200g. Also, the postage on ebay is only 90p, so if you've ordered two bags (like I just did ) it's only £5.78 for 300g, and if you ordered a mere 200g from their website it's £7.63, I think. I don't mind a bit that they're funny shapes...

    ... or if they're making them deliberately mis-shaped I hope they realise that they make more money if they sell them more cheaply and lower the price.

    I bought 4 bags (I know, I know - but I want them for decorating cakes this weekend... if I can stop Mr Rose from guzzling them by Saturday), and she put them all in one box so I paid £2.65 for postage and just under £8 for 600g of marshmallows. I'm happy with how that works out in terms of price.

    Mmm I've just ordered another four packs of marshmallows. 2 strawberries, vanilla and banana. Can't wait. They are so yummy and ever so soft. Definetly worth paaying £1.99 for. I think that's pretty decent.

    There will be more listed soon and then on a regular basis.

    My friend tells me there are 20 bags on the way to her to sell at the Brum cruelty free festival tomorrow but they have not turned up

    So Il have to buy some of those when they arrive or they might be sent back to re list on ebay?

    Mine arrived today. Two bags is DEFINITELY not going to be enough! I don't think the first bag is going to last the day...

    They're amazing! I've had American imports from vegan store in the past, but I'd never tried these ones because they look kind of wet/solid/heavy in the pictures, but they're not AT ALL!

    I got my second batch at the weekend but refrained from unsealing the box until tonight. Well, 2 days isn't bad! This time, they are actually misshapen. The first time they were all pretty much perfectly square. It doesn't affect their edible-ness one bit though...

    I've still got some of the first batch and I think they are developing sugar crystals as they near their use by date. (If that is possible? I didn't notice the crystals when I first ate them.)
    Not that that would be a problem for most of you guys by the sound of it!

    Something otherworldly clearly since I've had 2 packets in the fridge since I ordered them over 3 weeks ago and still have some left!
    But what you really need to consider is how much chocolate and other sweet goodies are in my house that have allowed them to survive this long.

    Yeah I ordered about a month ago and they didn't turn up either, although I did email Lynda the lady who I think owns sweet Vegan and they were really good as she sent me another batch that did turn up this week. Think the postie must have smelt what was in the box and eaten them. Just email sweet vegan and let them know as they will have a record of sending them with the postie.
