Questions about Marshmallow cream topping
What is marshmallow cream topping used for?
Spread it between biscuits or on brownies, spoon it over hot chocolate, or use it as a soft filling for cakes and whoopie pies. It also makes a quick dip for strawberries and apple slices.
Can you toast marshmallow cream topping?
Yes. Spread a thin layer on a heatproof dessert and brown it briefly under a hot grill, watching constantly; it can scorch in moments. For a toasted s’mores-style topping, a kitchen torch gives you more control.
How do you make marshmallow cream topping easier to spread?
Warm the jar, with its lid removed, in a bowl of hot water for a few minutes, then stir. A lightly oiled spoon also helps you scoop and spread the sticky topping.
How should you store marshmallow cream topping after opening?
Keep it tightly covered in a cool, dry cupboard and use a clean spoon each time. Follow the storage directions on the jar, since some formulations call for refrigeration after opening.
Can you freeze marshmallow cream topping?
Freezing is usually unnecessary and can make the texture less smooth after thawing. Keep it sealed in the cupboard as directed on the jar instead.

Can you use marshmallow cream topping instead of marshmallows in a recipe?
It works well as a spread or soft filling, but it does not behave like firm marshmallows when toasted on a stick or folded into a mixture. For cereal bars, use marshmallows unless the recipe specifically gives an amount of cream topping.

A 28 g spoonful contains 13 g of sugars. It is very sweet, so a thin layer is often enough to finish a dessert.
