Yes. Marshmallows are a type of candy (confectionery): a sweet, sugar‑based treat made by whipping sugar (and often corn syrup) with gelatin (or another gelling agent), water and air to form a light, spongy foam.
Historically they were made from the marsh mallow plant root, but modern marshmallows use gelatin or plant-based alternatives. They’re eaten as candy on their own and used in desserts like s’mores, hot chocolate, and rocky road.
