Begin Whipping Aquafaba
While that is heating use a stand mixer to whip together Aquafaba and vegan gelatin to stiff peaks. This will take about 10 minutes.Once the sugar mixture has been heated to 240°F and the whip has reached stiff peaks, slowly drizzle the warm sugar mixture into the whip on low speed.Once all the sugar mixture has been incorporated, whip for 5 minutes or until light and fluffy.

Shape and Dust Marshmallows
Fun tip; use unflavored tooth floss to cleanly and easily cut the marshmallows.Dust sides of marshmallows with confectioners sugar mixture to prevent sticking.Store covered in a cool dry place for up to 2 weeks.
