If you buy the marshmallow, instead of making it, you will need 155 g (5 oz) each of white and pink marshmallow. If you make your own marshmallow you will need to make it a day ahead to give it time to set, and you need two lamington tins, each about 20 cm by 7.5 cm (8 in by 5 in). A lamington tin is a shallow, rectangular baking pan.
TO MAKE MARSHMALLOW, lightly oil the two lamington tins. Place the water, sugar, gelatin and cream of tartar in a medium saucepan, allowing room for the syrup to rise as it boils.

Boil the syrup until it reaches the soft ball stage as measured on a sugar
