Crispy Marshmallow Squares

- Crispy Marshmallow Squares (Base for cake):

This is done with marshmallow candy made with butter and melt then add the puffed rice. Not expected to cooking in the oven as it does for the other mixtures.Once prepared this hardens and takes the shape of the container where it is allowed to solidify. The solidification takes place in a cool place, preferably in the refrigerator.Then you cut with a knife and is modeled as if it were a sculpture. Serves as the basis for three-dimensional cakes which we will later on.
