I haven't figured it out so will need help. But my theory was to make it with egg White fluffed up and use gelatine?? I tried a combination but it was too moist . Any ideas?

The Rose essence I got was large. The loranne ones are tiny , but only a few drops are required.

I'd say that an 'envelope' is probably the same as a sheet of leaf or a packet of powder wouldn't you think? Think I may be busy tomoro lolol I don't have any marshmallow flavouring tho so may just use vanilla xx

It could also be that when I simmered it a lot evaporated thus making it more solid

I followed the recipe to the letter and they just tasted like rose flavoured jelly, as soon as i took them out of the tray they started dissolving....

On a plus note, the marshmallows are lush! Not as light as 'proper' marshmallows and obviously there's that hint of sweetener, but I added some pink colouring and a drop of raspberry flavouring. Am terrified to cut it and take it out of tray, so I'm just cutting and running at the moment lol xx

Oh yes please! I'd be so grateful if you ladies could come up with a nice low syn cake recipe, I haven't found one that i've liked yet and I really miss a slice of cake with an afternoon cuppa!

Have you tried the 1/2 syn roulade?

4 eggs separated - free
1 Tub of Quark - free
6 Tbs Sweetener - free
Vanilla Essence - free
1 Tsp Baking Powder – ½ syn
　
　
Mix 4 yolks mixed with 1/2 tub of quark, 5 tablespoons of sweetener 1 teaspoon of baking powder and 1 teaspoon of vanilla.
　
　
Whisk your four egg whites till just before meringue stiffness then mix in half and then carefully fold in the last half separate into two tins (for cake) swiss roll tin (for roulade) lined with greaseproof paper and sprayed with frylight and cook for 15-20 mins on 180•
　
　
For the filling:- the last 1/2 tub of quark drop of vanilla, sweetner or to taste and chopped strawberries/berries!

Am working for 6 days in a row now so can't try the turkish delight... I'll be trying that next weekend
