WHY must divinity be beaten until it loses its gloss??? Why not have glossy candy?

It wont have the correct texture. It end up chewy instead of fluffy if you underbeat

Plus it will spread out in puddles. Ask me how I know....

 
The time I did that I kept wishing it had some peppermint extract in it.

My puddles were actually very similar to peppermint patties. Coulda dipped them in chocolate.

 
Melissa, a friend makes this and she wants very small pieces (1/2") but it hardens

too quickly on her. Is there anything she can do? I suggested putting it in a pan and cutting it into slices, but she seems intent on doling it out piece by piece.

 
Short of having someone help her I have no answer. It is fairly traditional to put it in a pan and

cut in pieces too, but my family always dropped it in individual pieces. It does set up fast.

 
Maybe she could put it in a pastry bag & pipe. The problem I see with tiny pieces

Is that you would lose the luscious fluffy texture because it would be all "crust" & no center. Why does she want such tiny pieces?

 
It says to store in an airtight container, but this morning it's getting soft and sticky smileys/irritated.gif
