Beautiful job of making and dipping the marshmallows. I have had the same experience with the flavored marshmallows. The strawberry ones (nightscotsman's recipe) retained a little strawberry flavor, but only a little. Passion fruit ones (I think of passion fruit as a very assertive flavor that overpowers almost anything else) lost all taste of the fruit after a few days.

That’s really disappointing as I don’t usually gift them the day I cut them. Have you tried incorporating freeze dried fruit powder? I wonder if that would help with flavor retention. The lemon is still beautiful and tart even a week later, although I’m losing the floral quality specific to Meyer lemons. 

 

Edited to add: thank you so much for your kind words. Sorry—when I am in problem solving mode I sometimes forget my manners :)
