Using plain white marshmallows and edible markers, Sandra Beasley recreated some of the most iconic objects, concepts and characters from [the magical world of Harry Potter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kinder-joy-funko-harry-potter). The Harry Potter Marshmallow treats feature expertly executed recreations of Harry, Ron, Hermione and such props as the Golden Snitch and Harry's famous glasses. Beasley has even included a cauldron bubbling over with something green, a series of bottles containing different potions and the infamous Sorting Hat. These Harry Potter Marshmallow treats are a truly creative and appealing tribute to the magical story that is soon coming to an end for all of its fans. **Implications** - Businesses that offer consumers a wide range of products that serve as complementary to a current consumer craze or infatuation will fare well in today's industry.
