A method for making campfire marshmallow candy, defined as crispy snacks derived from marshmallows and having a toasted marshmallow flavor. The method includes receiving a substantially single layer of marshmallows onto a reception tray. A dehydration unit removes moisture from the marshmallows at approximately 140 degrees Fahrenheit for between 8- and 24 hours, resulting in the marshmallows taking on approximately 80% of their original weight. The dehydrated marshmallows are cooled before a toasting unit toasts the marshmallows on one side. After a second cooling, the marshmallows are flipped and toasted again at a high heat of approximately 500 degrees Fahrenheit. After a third cooling, the marshmallows are dehydrated again before being cooled to create a candy that may be crushed to powder form. Each cooling brings the marshmallow product to a temperature between 55 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit. The resultant candy may be vacuum packaged.
