toasted marshmallow

Browned sugary puff

A toasted marshmallow is a marshmallow that has been heated over a flame or heat source until the outside caramelizes and chars.

The ideal is golden-brown with a crisp shell and molten interior, though some prefer them blackened.

Toasting marshmallows over a campfire is a quintessential outdoor ritual: We sat around roasting marshmallows and telling ghost stories.

Toasted marshmallows are the key component of s'mores.
