The only |reliable source that seems to confer notability is the "Indiana Artisan" awards piece.  I looked closely at that and they've given it out 175 times in two years, which seems a bit … less than perfectly notable to me.  You can receive this award for making fudge and, like the subject, marshmallows; not really within my personal definition of "artisan".  On the other hand, this award is juried -- although I was unable to discern exactly who's on the juries.  From the website, the "Benefits" of this award are all about the marketing of local products and so I have to think that this is more advertising than anything else.  The article states that having been chosen as an "Artist in Residence" at the Indiana State Museum -- for being a chef? -- is "a chance to promote her locally based products", without any other mention of why this designation was given or to how many people, and it's stated that this is based on the "Indiana Artisan" status.   Also as noted above there is a strong flavour of self-promotion; her stated ambition is "Global domination of the gourmet candy market," and this seems like a step along the way.  All things considered, I think this is yet another attempt to |market this person's food products.  No doubt they are excellent, but I suggest she is not yet sufficiently |notable for Wikipedia; perhaps if there were some reliable sources of arm's-length third-party expert opinion that were unambiguously not connected with the promotion of local businesses and that were outside her home area
