Marshmallow Whip

Marshmallow

Marshmallow is a confection made from sugar, water and gelatin whipped to a solid-but-soft consistency. It is used as a filling in baking or molded into shapes and coated with corn starch. This sugar confection is inspired by a medicinal confection made from Althaea officinalis, the marsh-mallow plant.

Whip

A whip is a blunt weapon or implement used in a striking motion to create sound or pain. Whips can be used for flagellation against humans or animals to exert control or strength through pain compliance or fear of pain, or be used as an audible cue through the distinct whipcrack effect. Whips are commonly used on horses to give subtle cues as tapping. The portion of the whip used for striking is generally either a firm rod designed for direct contact, or a flexible line requiring a specialized swinging motion. The former is easier and more precise, the latter offers longer reach and greater force. Some varieties have an extended stock section in addition to the line.
