Method
- 1.Preparation of ingredients

- 3.Manufacture of syrup
- 4.Pour the sugar powder, glucose syrup and water into a saucepan. Heat it all over medium heat by monitoring with a thermometer. When the mixture reaches 121°C, stop cooking. Be careful because the hot sugar is very hot.
- 5.Gelatin hydration

- 11.Preparation of chocolate coating
- 12.Gently melt the black pastry chocolate in the water bath or microwave in short sequences. Mix well until you get a smooth consistency. Meanwhile, mix the icing sugar and cornstarch in a separate bowl to remove the marshmallows.

- 14.Gently remove the cubs. Roll them quickly in the icing sugar-female mixture to avoid sticking. Then dip each cub into the melted chocolate with a fork and place on a grill covered with baking paper.
