 AI>> Marshmallows are a confection made with (mostly) sugar, water and
 AI>> gelatin.
 AI>> They make a nice treat but I wouldn't eat too many of them. ;)
 AH>            Agreed.  I eat perhaps one or two a year, unless called upon
 AH> to make an ambrosia salad... which the local deli will gladly provide if
 AH> they don't run out of it before I get there.  We use the full-sized
 AH> version only when we're on a camping trip & our daughter insists on
 AH> 'smores cooked over the fire....  :-))
"Deli" - Delivery service?

 DM>> ;() Russian make a nice threat mostly with water and gelatin.
 AH>            Alan said "treat"... not "threat".  These are different words,
 AH> which have different meanings & are also pronounced differently.
Treat - Russian "sud" or what?

 DM>> But they make it on last step with a bit little sugars ("pudra") on top
 DM>> (from/by opening hand with "pudra").
 AH>            I'm curious about the meaning of this word in Russian because
 AH> of its similarity to "powder" in English & to "poudre" in French.
Thank for Powder!
