Hudson Valley Marshmallow Company — Restaurant in City of Beacon

I walked into the establishment and it seemed like I was disturbing the only other person in the room. If they had not wanted customers, why didn’t they lock the door? I purchased what was supposed to be vanilla marshmallows. The next day at home I tried one, and it was not a marshmallow. It was that gooey stuff inside a marshmallow that most people throw out. Like when you roast a marshmallow over a fire, you get a nice crispy burnt shell to eat and then the go away stuff you throw out. This bag of marshmallows is kind of like muffins without their tops. Where was the delicious crisp of the outside of a marshmallow? Who would want to eat the inside?

Hudson Valley Marshmallow Company is a gem within the charming shopping district on Main Street in Beacon, New York. The marshmallows were excellent (I particularly enjoyed the French Toast marshmallows), but what really made HVMC memorable was employee/star, Alec.

Please give this man a raise & many thanks for elevating your already excellent products to outstanding....

I'm sorry but I don't get the appeal of this place. We came in the late afternoon and the clerk was very negative. My wife and I both ordered a s'more and they were awful. The marshmallow was a hard rock that the clerk burned with a torch but eating it was not gooey or anything like it should be. The texture was stale. The chocolate they put on is about the equivalent of one bite size Hershey chocolate bar. We were really excited about trying this place but it was a total disappointment.
