    3In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup water and sugar, and stir over medium-high heat until sugar is dissolved.
    4Stop stirring, and place a candy thermometer into sugar water; wipe sides of pan with a wet brush if sugar crystals have splattered up.

    9Transfer marshmallow mixture to a large (14-inch) pastry bag fitted with a 1/2 inch (#11Ateco) tip, and use immediately.

    Toblerone dip? Naughty but very yummy!

    Just melt a bar of toblerone and fold through whipped cream. Refrigerate until needed.

    Chocolate dip - melt equal part chocolate into cream and allow to cool...mmmm.

    Middleastern yoghurt dip - stir honey, cardamon, cinnamon and orange flower water into greek style yoghurt. Goes really well with rich fruit like dates and dried fruit.

    Alternatively, the no-labour version involves opening a tub of king island honey & cinnamon yoghurt mmmmmm!
