Marshmallows are a type of confectionery made from whipped sugar, egg whites, a gelling agent, as well as flavorings and colorings. In Germany, Marshmallows are also commonly referred to as “Mäusespeck”.
Especially in the USA, Marshmallows are extremely popular. They are often used during occasions like Thanksgiving to decorate side dishes such as sweet potatoes and the like. Before consumption, they are frequently heated on a grill. Of course, you can also skewer the Marshmallows on a long stick and roast over an open fire.
