Marshmallows

Marshmallows are sugar-based confectionery, usually made by whipping a sugar mixture with a setting agent. These figures describe ready-to-eat marshmallows sampled from different brands. They mainly provide carbohydrate: per 100g, they contain 83g of carbohydrate, including 65g of sugars, alongside 3.9g of protein and 1396 kJ of energy.

Carbohydrate provides energy for the body. The sugar and energy content of marshmallows are relevant for people monitoring these intakes, even though the samples contain no fat. Marshmallows provide no fibre and only small amounts of minerals. Frequent consumption of sugary foods can contribute to tooth decay. Full nutritional figures are provided in the tables below.
