Place water, salt and potatoes in a 6-quart soup pot, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for 25 to 30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
Drain potatoes thoroughly and return them to the pot or a large bowl.
Using a wire masher or fork, mash potatoes until desired texture is reached.
Mix in margarine and non-dairy creamer until well combined.
Separate into 4 equal batches and add 1 Gold’s topping to each of 3 batches, leaving one batch plain (the exact measurement is 1 tablespoon of topping per 1 cup/serving of mashed potatoes). Mix to blend.
Spoon into martini glasses for a colorful and gorgeous presentation, top each with a drizzle of remaining topping.
Sauté chopped shallots in olive oil over medium heat until golden and crispy and top plain mashed potatoes with a few spoonfuls if desired.
