[quote=Anonymous]This started with my son's comment on Thanksgiving about the 2 24 ounce coffees he buys every day. He is self-employed and spends a lot of time on the road. I started thinking about a French press and amazingly Stanley makes a 48 ounce thermos French press, so am considering it for Xmas.

He buys gas station coffee and flavors it with a shot of gas station cappuccino, specifically a combo of French Vanilla and S'mores.

So I was thinking about making him coffee creamer that would replicate his preferred addition. And I did find some bloggers with flavored creamer recipes, but this all led to a question for me:

The blogges use marshmallow creme in their s'mores creamer recipe. So what makes marshmallow taste like marshmallow? In the modern world they don't use the plant they did a century ago. Wikipedia says marshmallows are flavored with vanilla, but if that was all it is you wouldn't need to add marshmallow creme to the mix.

I now find that you can buy marshmallow flavor. Haven't checked whether there are organic versions as opposed to synthesized flavors. But any idea why/how marshmallow tastes different from just vanilla?[/quote]
