Fluffy question
When you make LCMs or Rice Bubble Treats do you pick out the white marshmallows (or buy a white only pack that I have not yet found) or do you use the pink and white ones? I was looking for a recipe to make them today and I found more than one review saying that using pink marshmallows made them look revolting  .The batch I just made looks slightly pink, but has hundreds and thousands on top, I think they look and taste yummy, but since these are for a christmas party I wondered what others do. Even if everyone says revolting, my pink LCMs are going. I hate cooking for take-a-plate things. |

At our house I pick out the pink ones and use those for treats or roasting on the fire.
I grew up eating the home made version in Canada and we never, ever had pink marshmallows so they look too weird to me. Options for your LCM's mini M&M's on top, Melt 2-3 tablespoons of peanut butter through with the marshmallows - then add some choc chips at the end |

Rice Bubble Bars
I used this one, which is the most basic recipe and just sprinkle the hundreds and thousands on before it sets. In a related question, does coconut ice have to be pink? |

Depends on my mood and time and/or whether I can recruit the kids to do it. Sometimes its just white, others its mixed.
