From the Kraft kitchens.
When Kraft introduced its miniature marshmallows in the mid-1950s, it ran advertisements with various “mallow mold” recipes, like raspberry and lime. Here’s another example, from the July 28, 1955 edition of the Long Beach Independent:
Bristol Mallow Mold 2 (3 oz.) packages orange flavored gelatin Dissolve orange gelatin in boiling water; add ginger ale. Chill until slightly thickened. Fold in fruit. Pour into 9″ tube pan. Chill until firm. Unmold; combine marshmallows and sour cream. Spoon on top of mold. Sprinkle with nuts. |
