Marshmallow
Put gelatin, champagne, and jello powder into the mixing bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, and water. Cover and heat over medium high heat for 4-5 minutes.
Uncover, and attach your candy thermometer to your pot, heating until the mixture reaches 240° F (about 5-10 more minutes). See notes for tips on using a candy thermometer.
Remove from heat. Begin whisking the gelatin mixture in the stand mixer.
Very slowly pour in the corn syrup mixture while whisking. Continue whisking for about 12 minutes.
Spread the marshmallow mixture into the prepared pan.
Sprinkle remaining powdered sugar mixture over top of the marshmallow mixture.
Let set for 4 hours.
Cut into cubes with a greased knife, or use a greased cookie cutter to cut into shapes, such as hearts for Valentine's Day or bunnies for Easter!
To use a candy thermometer, clip it to the side of your saucepan and make sure the tip is fully emerged in the liquid but not touching the bottom of the pan.
If you find the marshmallows sticking to your knife or cookie cutters when trying to cut them, spray a paper towel with nonstick spray and wipe the spray onto your knife or cookie cutter. You can re-apply the spray from the paper towel as frequently as needed to cut your full batch.
