In Dutch it's also marshmallows, but also commonly spek (bacon), spekjes (bacon pieces) or spekkies (in this case it's clear you're not talking about bacon).
In our local dialect it's "nunnebiln" ~ nonnenbillen, which I'd translate to nuns buttocks.
We also have nuns farts, but that's another sweet for another day 😆
Can it please be another day already? I want to be initiated in the world of nun's farts.
Haha. They are a kind of small profiteroles with whipped cream.
