How Marshmallow Magic Began!
Gail's daughter, Bella, is the inspiration behind the Marshmallow Magic book series. She owns and operates the real-world marshmallow and cake pop business. Marshmallow Magic, in San Diego.
Hi! This is Bella from Marshmallow Magic. As a first grader, baking sweet treats was one of my favorite things to do at home. Cookies, cakes, candy—you name it and I loved it. One day I dipped a marshmallow on a stick into melted chocolate and decorated it with sprinkles. I made a store in my driveway and neighbors loved the new idea of marshmallow pops!
​
I’m now in sixth grade and continue to run my Marshmallow Magic business, which now includes marshmallow, cake and brownie pops. I love seeing neighbors enjoy them for all sorts of celebrations. I’ve made many designs from soccer balls to ninjas to holiday-themed pops. The best part is that it is so much fun.
​
What you may not know is that often at restaurants or parties, I can’t eat what I want because I have food allergies. I must be careful to check ingredients to stay safe. Baking sweet treats makes me feel free and happy because I can create anything I can dream.
​
The really good news is that this year, I will donate 50 percent of my profits to the SoCal Food Allergy Institute which treats kids with food allergies like me. https://socalfoodallergy.org/ I can now eat 15 foods I was unable to tolerate before and am close to complete food freedom!

If you're curious to see some of the pops I make or see what I've been up to, check out and "like" my Facebook page. I would like to thank all my customers who have supported my dream over the years!
