Before Dollar Tree packs away all of their summer merchandise and replaces it all with back-to-school, autumn, and (dare I say it?) Christmas stuff, you may want to check for sand molds. Beth from Hungry Happenings has a great use for them: making molded marshmallow treats! You could also use the fun shaped ice cube trays that Dollar Tree has been carrying for every recent season to make smaller, bite-sized versions. Can you think of anything else you could use for making these besides sand molds and ice cube trays? Please share; we love brainstorms! [how to make molded marshmallows]
Project estimate:
- Sand mold, $1
- Marshmallows, on hand or $1
- Food coloring, on hand
- Flavor oils (optional), on hand
- Butter, on hand
- Powdered sugar, on hand
Total: $1 and up

I love their Smorefish too! Just mould a star shape, coat in chocolate and cover in Graham crumbs! Smorefish are moreish!
