How to Make Fruit Plate With Marshmallow Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, and 1/4 cup hot water.
  2. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly until the sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Increase heat to medium-high and boil, without stirring, until the mixture reaches the firm-ball stage (240°F on a candy thermometer).
  4. In a clean, grease-free bowl, beat 2 large egg whites with a pinch of salt until stiff peaks form.
  5. Slowly pour the hot syrup into the beaten egg whites, beating at high speed with an electric mixer until the mixture is thick, glossy, and fluffy. This will take several minutes.
  6. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon grated orange rind.
  7. Gently fold in 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise. If the marshmallow sauce is too thick, add 1-2 more tablespoons of mayonnaise or 1-2 teaspoons of water until you reach desired consistency.
  8. Arrange all the fruits artfully on a large fig leaf or platter. Tuck in the nut bread slices. Garnish with the Vanda orchid. Serve immediately with the marshmallow sauce on the side.
