Project History & More Info:
This was probably one of my kids favorite projects, because they got to eat the results. Even my wife was impressed with my mad cooking skills 🙂 And I can’t tell you how hard it was not to eat the s’mores right away while filming them. So tempting!
When roasting marshmallows for s’mores, I had taken note of how difficult it was to get them nice and gooey without catching them on fire. Most times, the marshmallows spontaneously light off, and burn a black skin of carbon all around the outside. Although this is fun, but doesn’t taste that great.
In this project I attempted to take a common campfire item, like a drink can, and modify it into a roaster, that would soften chocolate and marshmallows to s’more perfection.
I was really happy with the results, as well as how versatile the roaster turned out to be. It can be used in a lot of different ways, and definitely helps mitigate the risk of marshmallows catching on fire, and chocolate that falling off when trying to balance it over a fire.
