Yes! You can substitute agar-agar with gelatin. Use 1 tablespoon of gelatin (dissolved in cold water first) for every 1 teaspoon of agar-agar, but note the marshmallows may have a slightly different texture.
Store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Keep them away from humidity to prevent melting or stickiness.
Yes, if you use agar-agar (a plant-based thickener), the recipe is vegetarian. However, if using gelatin, it's not vegetarian as gelatin is derived from animal collagen.

Use a double boiler or microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring frequently. Avoid overheating, as chocolate can seize or become grainy.
Yes! Freeze them in a single layer on parchment paper, then transfer to an airtight container. Thaw at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.

Enjoy them as a dessert, with coffee, or as a sweet snack. For presentation, drizzle extra chocolate or sprinkle with cocoa powder or crushed nuts.
