What it is

Marshmallow filling is a sweet, soft, and airy food product. It is typically made from sugar, water, corn syrup, and gelatin, often with added flavorings. This filling is a processed ingredient, not found naturally.

Why it's used

Manufacturers add marshmallow filling to foods for its sweet taste, unique fluffy texture, and ability to add volume. It is commonly used in candies, pastries, cakes, and other desserts as a filling, topping, or component.

Health notes

Marshmallow filling is a composite food product, not a single additive. Its main components, such as sugar and corn syrup, are sources of added sugars. The 2025-2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend no amount of added sugars, and at most 10 grams of added sugars per meal. Gelatin, a common ingredient in marshmallow filling, is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA. While individual ingredients have been evaluated by bodies like JECFA, marshmallow filling as a whole is not typically subject to such evaluations.

Allergen info

Marshmallow filling itself is not a major allergen. However, specific formulations may contain ingredients derived from major allergens, such as soy lecithin or dairy.
