About Candies, marshmallows
Marshmallows are the soft, fluffy, pillowy sweets whipped from sugar, water and gelatin (or egg white) until light and airy. Toasted over a fire, melted into rice-crispy treats, or floated on hot chocolate, they're a campfire and childhood classic.
They're about as simple as candy gets: essentially whipped sugar, which makes them high in sugar but, unusually for a sweet, very low in fat. That keeps them slightly lower in calories than richer candies like caramels or chocolate, but they're still essentially pure sugar with no real nutrients.
Light, sweet and fun, marshmallows are a treat best enjoyed for what they are — toasted, melted or straight from the bag — rather than counted on for anything nutritional.
