What it is
Dehydrated marshmallows are small, chewy confections made primarily from sugar, corn syrup, and gelatin. Water is removed to create a shelf-stable product that retains its shape and texture. They are often produced by extruding a marshmallow mixture and then drying it.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use dehydrated marshmallows as a topping or ingredient to add sweetness and a chewy texture to foods. They are commonly found in baked goods like cookies and cake mixes, as well as in snack mixes, cereals, and ice cream.
Health notes
Dehydrated marshmallows are primarily composed of sugar, and their consumption contributes to overall sugar intake. The FDA considers sugar to be Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) for use in food. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated sugar and related compounds. Excessive consumption of added sugars is linked to health concerns such as weight gain and an increased risk of type 2 diabetes, according to the World Health Organization (WHO).
Allergen info
Dehydrated marshmallows are not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. They do not contain gluten.
