Maybe stick it in the freezer for a few minutes? I wouldn't leave it long, due to the moisture, but a couple minutes might cool the marshmallows enough to set it.

Once it sets...does this mean its hard and wont melt down the shape you have it in? I need it for the pour affect on a beer mug...thanks and how long before should I let it start to set????

I just made dinosaur horns out of RKT and to get them to dry faster I put them in front of a fan. I also did a technique from Slopokesgirl where she would add modeling chocolate when modeling her RKT items and I have to say it made them Very Strong!

Here's a link to her original post

Awesome idea and if you have questions she's great about responding!

HTH.
