People are constantly telling us they want to eat our fat marshmallow whipped tallow skin fluff! In fact, we have received NUMEROUS videos of people doing PRECISELY that! Licking it off themselves, their loved one, their pets, even eating it by the spoonful!
BUT, as delectable as fat marshmallow whipped tallow skin fluff smells, AND despite the fact that it IS made entirely of edible, food grade ingredients, its a fat with so sweetness to balance it out, so it doesn't taste nearly as good as it smells - so thats why we teamed up with our pals at Shane's Confectionary (America's oldest continually operating confectionary! To make us some edible marshmallows!
The marshmallow plant has been used in herbal medicine for centuries, and is native to Northern Africa and Eastern Europe, and grows throughout North America. It was historically used in confectionery to make actual marshmallows before sugar-based versions became common, as it is a powerful anti inflammatory, and has long been used in the treatment of respiratory issues (dry coughs, sore throats) and digestive problems (gastritis, ulcers, indigestion, heartburn). Marshmallow root has been cherished in skincare for just as long, providing instant hydration, while it continuously works to improve the skin's ability to retain moisture, and has been shown to have anti-inflammatory benefits. It also contains a naturally occuring botanical form of hyaluronic acid that can firm the skin and increase moisture levels. This comes from a thick, gum-like substance called mucilage within the root.
This combination of old school medicine and traditional candy making with a modern twist makes for a dame tasty sweet treat!

Retro food packaging is a design DREAM & the marshmallow fluff jars are iconic AF. If you knew Vellum St founder and former chef Melissa Torre in the Cookie Confidential days, you know her cupcake line, Undercover Cupcake, came exclusively in jelly jars with red lids, with a fluffy cream cheese frosting piped in thick layers above, below & in between the cakes. fat marshmallow is a nod in part to those two tasty treats, but done Vellum style, for your skin!
