Recipe by: Jo Merrill * you can buy invert sugar at cake supply stores or
sometimes at large supermarkets.

In a mixing bowl soak gelatin in 1/4 cup water.
In a saucepan, combine 1/4 cup water, sugar and invert sugar. Heat but do
not boil; pour hot syrup into gelatin, beating slowly. Gradually add corn
syrup and vanilla, beating on medium-high speed of an electric mixer until
mixture is fluffy, white and doubled in bulk. * Color and flavor

Keep mixing bowl in a larger bowl of very hot water to keep marshmallow
