是英語名詞,音標為英[ˌmɑːʃˈmæləʊ]、美[ˈmɑːrʃmeloʊ],複數形式為marshmallows,核心含義包括棉花軟糖、藥用蜀葵及其提取物,也可喻指性格怯懦者。
該詞在不同語境中具有多層含義:作為食品指由糖、明膠等製成的蓬鬆甜點;植物學中特指原產濕地的藥用蜀葵,其根部黏液曾用於止咳糖漿;非正式場合可形容性格軟弱者。相關短語如“斯坦福棉花糖實驗”指代延遲滿足心理學研究,“Android Marshmallow”則為安卓系統6.0版本代號。
詞源可追溯至古地中海地區,最初專指藥用蜀葵(學名Althaea officinalis)。19世紀法國糖果師將其根部汁液與糖、蛋清混合製作早期棉花糖,現代工業以明膠替代蜀葵成分,形成現今常見形態。
