Where can I buy vegan marshmallows? They all seem to be sold out on the websites I find. Are they any good?!
There's also a new company in Australia (or maybe New Zealand, I can't remember) that is selling kits for making your own at home. I'll update with a link if I can find it, or you may have luck searching online for Angel Food marshmallow kits.
Edit: They're in NZ, here's the site for marshmallow kits: http://www.angelfood.co.nz/
Answers: I've had the Sweet & Sara ones, which I can get at a local vegan grocery. To me they tasted exactly like regular marshmallows but were a little denser, but it had been decades since I'd had a regular marshmallow so I asked my (omnivore) boyfriend's opinion. He concurred that the taste was spot on but the texture was a little bit heavier. If you can't find them locally, I'd just keep checking beack on Food Fight and Vegan Essential's websites - they can't be out of marshmallows forever!

Wow!! I didn't even know such a thing existed!!! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm marshmallow mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Try Marshmallow Fluff, only available in the North East though....I get it in Maine....great stuff.
Funny you ask, I'm JUST about to make vegan rice crispie treats for my girlfriends sisters birthday.
I was going to suggest Portlands "Food Fight" grocery, but it looks like they're out as well.
I don't think they taste as good raw as regular marshmallows, but when they're cooked as rice crispie treats or smores they're just as good.
Ricemellow Creme Fluff is a vegan marshmallow-fluff. You can also try making your own if you like to cook. I tried it and failed miserabley. The Ricemellow Fluff is available in most major grocery and health food stores.
Pangea has Vegan Sweets Marshmallows that are good for using in rocky road fudge and rice krispie treats. Go to www.veganstore.com. Sadly, they don't carry the Sweet and Sara. I know Vegan Essentials has the option where you can be notified when a product comes into stock, and then you have to pounce.
Different Daisy and Cosmo's Vegan Shoppe also carry the Sweet and Sara.
The marshmallows are okay--a little dense, as someone else said. I order the S'mores--those are to die for.
