Fun Shapes & Colors - Vanilla Dehydrated Marshmallows | Half Pound Resealable Bulk Bag | For Hot Chocolate, Cereal, Ice Cream Topping, or Plain - (8oz Bag)

Provided the ingredient label can be trusted, this is one of the very few manufacturers of white dehydrated mini marshmallows that does NOT use artificial blue dye as an optical whitener to make their end-product appear whiter.The part that gives me pause as to the legitimacy of it being dye-free is that: 1) Nowhere in the official product pictures or product description does it formally state the actual ingredient list. I had to rely on product images posted by other purchasers, then confirm that mine was the same upon receipt. That does not instill confidence in me as a buyer, because if you have a clean(er) ingredient label, why hide it?; 2) It would be in the best interest of the seller to explicitly market their product as dye-free (if in fact it were) in order to appeal to a wider audience and obtain the additional market share from more health-conscious consumers. If they formulated it this way intentionally, they must be aware that it is not the industry standard formulation. Why not play to their strengths and use that unique claim as a searchable marketing point?Maybe I’m overthinking it, but that’s what I’d do. Hopefully their label can be trusted. If so, this is a diamond in the rough for many consumers. Unless evidence to the contrary surfaces or I come across a more reliably labeled/marketed dye-free option, I will continue to happily consume these delicious and crunchy marshmallows, with only the smallest seed of doubt nagging at me in the back of my mind about whether it’s actually dye-free…

I got this for a winter trip with a bunch of kids who all loved the little marshmallows and hot chocolate. These stayed in there for a lot longer than the one that come in the package! Quality was great you get a ton of product for your money. Tastes exactly how I imagined them too. If you have kids that love, hot cocoa with marshmallows definitely worth it!

These have a nice flavor and were fresh. We bought them to use in hot chocolate, and they work perfectly. All the kids love them. They don't have a weird after taste like some of the tiny marshmallows.

Loved the flavor. Used as part of hot chocolate essemble kit in a plastic ornament. Ate some while filling the ornaments. Definitely dehydrated, didn't get to try in a hot chocolate but I'm assuming it's like the hot chocolate packets from grocery store. If you need to cut to fill through thin tube/cylinder, they will crack & break into small pieces. Maybe a centimeter in diameter. It's dehydrated, not fresh

For the price you get a good amount of smallish-medium-size dry marshmamellows. Perfect for my cold or hot chocolate milk, or cereal. The vanilla flavoring boosts this for me. They're also a larger size (both in portion and individual size) than the usual dry marshmellows i get -- nice puffy but don't immediately melt when wet! I wish good luck to this company -- I'll probably buy it again.

These taste just like the marshmallows that come in lucky charms. I thought they were mini dehydrated ones for hot cocoa but these are quite a bit larger. They’ll work this time but I won’t be buying them again. Flavor is good and crunch is also nice, just not what I needed.

I bought this brand (UPTOP), and I bought 2 other brands ( MEDLEY HILLS AND SARAH'S CANDY FACTORY) to compare side by side. This is what myself and my hubby thought of them: Let's talk DUST. Very little dust was observed in the bag of UPTOP (1/5 inch or less), however MEDLEY HILLS did have about 1.5-2 inches of dust in bottom of the bag, while the little single use bottle from SARAH'S CANDY FACTORY didn't have much dust in bottom of jar, but not obviously MUCH less marshmallows too. Now, TEXTURE-UPTOP are crisp & sweet , with a nice softness in the middle, but NO gummy chew at all, while MEDLEY HILLS are somewhat crispy too/slightly less sweet than UPTOP, but have a gummy chew in the middle, and SARAH'S CANDY FACTORY is just soft and the chew is soft, slightly gummy and the taste is barely sweet. So we hope this helps you find the one that is just your type!

This is the 5th time I have bought from this company and it has always been amazing! I love to put them in hot cocoa and anything else I can think of however most of all I love to eat them plain. I love the crunch of them. This time I ordered 5 bags of the white vanilla discs. They came packaged differently and every single bag of them are stale. I am so bummed because I love them. It’s not even worth returning them because of how far I would have to go in order to return them. So im unfortunately losing my momey
