Mallomars

Recommended Posts

Mallomars are a cookie in the marshmallow sandwich genre, produced seasonally at Nabisco. A circle of Graham cracker is covered with a puff of extruded marshmallow, then enrobed (not dipped) in a hard dark chocolate shell.

Mallomars are not made available during the heat of summer. In New York City, their home town, they reappear on shelves in mid-September. New Yorkers keep them in the refrigerator. It's a New York market: seventy percent of all Mallomars sold are sold in metropolitan New York, and a majority of the rest are sold in outliers such as Miami and Los Angeles.

Mallomars came onto the market the same year as the more plebian Moon Pie, 1913.

Warm environments are not the only dangerous ones for Mallomars and their cousins. Because of the numerous air pockets within the marshmallow, changes in air pressure can cause drastic changes in the size of the biscuit, thus destroying the integrity of the chocolate coating. For instance, most airlines keep their aircraft cabins pressurized at a level which is slightly below that of normal ground pressure. This causes grievous ruin to the unblemished surface of such a cookie, and removes part of the visual pleasure and anticipation that comes when the box is opened. Fortunately, this does not affect the unmistakable strong chocolate aroma.
