As Bing Crosby first sang 62 Christmases ago, "It's a marshmallow world, it's a yum-yummy world made for sweethearts." Fete this Yuletide with marvelous Malaysian-made marshmallows, hand-cut & hand-wrapped with artistry & assurance.
Fete Artisan Marshmallows have popped up at multiple locations in recent months, with their makers, engaged couple Julian & Carmen, setting up stalls at Urbanscapes & other bazaars, as well as running deliveries across the Klang Valley.
Now, there's finally a convenient place to purchase these babies, seven days a week, 10am-9pm, at Publika's Carousel children's toy store (hidden on the same row as Namoo).
Varieties include chocolate chip (our favorite), Tahitian vanilla, Japanese matcha, orange marmalade, cookies & cream, & double espresso. Pleasantly spongy, offering a firm bite, with flavors delicate but true.
Well-presented packages of six cost RM9, with expiration dates at least a fortnight away.
Marshmallow puffs are also available, as well as lollipop-like "marshie pops" with choc sprinkles.
Marshmallow bouquets, cakes & other creations are possible on order. Brilliant for birthdays, baby showers, weddings & every other celebration in between.
Fete Marshmallows @ G3-14, Publika (in the mall), Solaris Dutamas, Kuala Lumpur.

Bonus look at more desserts elsewhere: Fans of frosty treats can have a sweet time at Tropicana City Mall's Zenberi & Taman Tun's UGood.
Zenberi's ice cream is satisfactory, with green tea, black sesame & yuzu flavors that feel natural-tasting. Note: there's also a Zenberi in Pavilion.
An East-meets-West pastry preparation: fresh, fluffy croissants, fascinatingly filled with azuki bean paste & topped with poppy seeds.
Handmade blueberry mille-crepe cake, not the best in town but bolehlah.
Next up, TTDI's U Good, which specializes in frozen yogurt ice cream.
A smooth, tasty mix of vanilla & mango flavors, with fresh mango cubes for fruity fun.
Customers can also purchase their fro-yo in warm, crisply fried "cornet" bread cones.
Jalan Wan Kadir 2, Taman Tun Dr Ismail.
Oi! Wats with all the dessert cravings recently?...hehe :P
ReplyDeleteUlric: heheh, no cravings per se, but too many tempting desserts popping around to ignore. and gourmet marshmallows are pretty interesting, heh :D
DeleteSomeone bought me Fete marshmellows and I've always wondered where it came from! So it's from Urbanscapes, I didn't see the stall myself.
ReplyDeleteGood to know that they've got a brick and mortar now, I really liked those. :)
Huai Bin: oooh, or it could have been from one of the arts bazaars at taylor's university or publika this year. but yeah, they were at urbanscapes apparently. and ya, hopefully marshmallows will soon be the new macarons, heh :D
DeleteHandmade blueberry mille-crepe cake, not the best in town but bolehlah - hahahah!
ReplyDeleteok, will give both Fete and UGood a try :)
TNG: heh, if you're at tropicana city mall and you need something sugary, then zenberi bolehlah :D but ya, you might enjoy Fete's marshmallows. not too sweet at all. Ugood is OK if you need something cold :D
DeleteI only recently discovered how amazing homemade marshamallows are...so heading to Fete next time I hit Publika.
ReplyDeleteYouHadYourLunch: i think i've never had homemade marshmallows before this month. but yeah, fete's are more enjoyable than the store-bought ones! i hope you'll concur =)
Deletewow long time have not been to tropicana city mall..
ReplyDeletelooks like a good dessert shop..
Simple Person: oh yeah, tropicana city mall is actually not bad at all. i like some of the outlets here. and zenberi is one of them =)
DeleteA lot of desserts! I want!
ReplyDeleteBut I have to control my desserts intake, gain weight again... :(
CK: for the christmas (and chinese new year) season, can enjoy desserts. after that, in march and april, can exercise to lose weight! :D
DeleteI've had the marshmallows before; they're not bad for a change of pace. I only knew about it cos Carmen and I were in school together and was invited to (Facebook) Like the page :P Am a sucker for the chocolate ones myself, but not enough for me to buy often - I'll stick to Kraft's Jet Puffed for the marshmallow binge eating, LOL.
ReplyDeleteLifeasacynic: yeah, these might be a once-in-awhile treat for me. i'm usually not a fan of any marshmallows at all, but fete's ones don't seem to suffer from the artifice that i dislike in most other marshmallows :D
DeleteI can remember only chiffon cake when I was young (the plain ones), so much happier today with the choices !
ReplyDeleteWong: heh, yeah, there are so many options for us these days. too many options, sometimes! :D
DeleteOoh, I don't think I've ever seen such an assortment of marshmallows. These certainly don't look like the type for melting in hot chocolate. They seem to deserve the whole stage for themselves. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe Yum List: oh yeah, you're totally right, i was wondering too whether these marshmallows should be dipped in some sort of chocolate fondue, but after tasting them, they can captivate the taste buds all on their own without any help from hot chocolate, heh :D
DeleteOh man that looks tempting.
ReplyDeleteCquek: marshmallow love! :D
