History & Formation
Marshmallow fluff, a spreadable confection made from whipped marshmallows and sugar, dates back to the early 20th century. Originally created as a versatile sweet, it could be eaten on toast, in sandwiches, or folded into desserts. Over the years, creative bakers began combining it with whipped cream to make a lighter, more luxurious version suitable for celebrations like Easter.
