What Is Marshmallow Fluff?

Marshmallow fluff is a sweet, spreadable version of marshmallows—think of it as the soft, gooey inside of a marshmallow turned into a smooth, creamy topping. It’s made from sugar, corn syrup, and egg whites whipped until light and fluffy, giving it that signature airy texture. Unlike traditional marshmallows, fluff doesn’t set into a firm shape, which makes it perfect for layering in desserts, swirling into frostings, or spooning straight from the jar. It adds instant sweetness and softness wherever it goes. I made my marshmallow fluff, I have a handy recipe which I will post in a few days. Till then, there are lots of great recipes online.

Tips for a Perfect Coconut Mango Marshmallow Fluff Parfait

🥥 Use chilled ingredients
Cold coconut cream and whipping cream whip up better and hold their shape longer—especially important if you’re assembling ahead of time. It is important that you chill your coconut cream overnight in the fridge. You need the thick creamy part of the coconut cream not the watery milk. Once you have chilled the coconut cream take the can out don’t shake it and open it and scoop out the thick creamy part. Its a good idea to keep the bowl, the whisk of the hand mixer and the whipping cream chilled. The marshmallow fluff should be fluffy too so give it a little whisk before you add it to the coconut cream mixture. The Dont over whip as it can make this fluffy mix flat.

🥭 Choose ripe mangoes
Go for mangoes that are sweet, juicy, and slightly soft to the touch. Alphonso or Kesar varieties work beautifully for their richness and aroma. Though sweet and tart mangoes work well too.

🍪 Layer with contrast
Alternate textures—like soft cream, juicy mango, and crunchy biscuit—for that satisfying spoonful.

🫙 Assemble just before serving (or chill well)
To keep the biscuit layer from going soggy, assemble close to serving time—or if prepping ahead, keep components separate and layer when ready.

🍬 Fluff it up right
Fold marshmallow fluff gently into the whipped cream mixture to keep the texture light and airy. Don’t overmix, or it’ll lose its volume.

🌿 Add a fresh touch
Top with toasted coconut flakes, mint leaves, or a drizzle of mango puree for that extra pop of flavor and flair.

🧁 Serve in clear glasses
Part of the magic is seeing the beautiful layers—use glass jars, dessert cups, or even wine glasses to show them off.
