Marshmallow on a food label: allergens, diets and other names

Marshmallow is made to a recipe, so its allergens depend on the recipe. Open Food Facts finds it in 990 products, most often in biscuits and cakes. Per 100 g: about 340 kcal and 3.7 g protein.

Does marshmallow contain an allergen?

It depends on how it was made. Open Food Facts does not link marshmallow to an allergen, and Bravoora’s label checker does not read the name as one. The label must name any allergen it carries.

What other names does marshmallow have on a label?

In English marshmallow can also read “mini marshmallow”. On European labels it is “guimauve” in French, “malvavisco” in Spanish and “Toffolette” in Italian.

Sources

An allergen is stated only when two of three checks agree: the Open Food Facts record, Bravoora’s label checker, and the ingredient’s own name or family (oat flour is oats, a cheese is milk). Every name where they disagree waits for a person to review it.
