Abstract

Abstract A marshmallow confection containing milk solids and a method for making same are provided. In one process for making the marshmallow confection a syrup is prepared from a mono-saccharide sugar, a di-saccharide sugar and water by heating a mixture of these ingredients with agitation. The syrup mixture is thereafter cooled to a temperature less than the caramelization of milk solids, and a concentrated dispersion of milk solids is added thereto. A dispersion of a colloid, such as gelatin, is then added and the mixture is pumped through a beater so as to aerate the mixture. The mixture is then cooled and formed into pieces of desired shape and size.
