A sweet marshmallow-like spread, that he called “Marshmallow Cream” was invented in 1917 by Archibald Query in Somerville, Massachusetts. In 1913 during World War I, Emma and Amory Curtis of Melrose, Massachusetts invented Snowflake Marshmallow Creme and published a recipe for a peanut butter and marshmallow creme sandwich, which is the earliest known example of a Fluffernutter.
Archiblad Query sold his recipe for “Marshmallow Creme” to Durkee-Mower, Inc. who renamed it Marshmallow Fluff and continues to sell it under that name today.
It was in 1960 that the term Fluffernutter was created by an advertising agency for Durkee-Mower in an attempt to effectively market the peanut butter and marshmallow sandwich.
We'll be observing this awesome holiday by making and eating fluffernutter sandwiches!!! Join us for a yummy lunch (please log a will attend so I know how much sandwich supplies to bring!) and bring a beverage to wash your lunch down with.
This location is a pavillion so the event will go on rain or shine! There is also some seriously AMAZING playground equipment at this location, so bring your kids, grandkids or just you inner child because there is no way you won't have fun!
As always, travel bugs and trackables are welcome! I'll be heading to GeoCoin Fest on the 15th, so if you have travel bugs or trackable that need some miles, I'm happy to move them down south!
This event will officially be from noon until 12:30 (group photo at 12:30). As usual, you are more than welcome to hang out afterward too!
