Marshmallow fluff needs a syrup, such as corn syrup or glucose syrup, in its recipe to help prevent sugar crystallization. Without a syrup, the sugar in the mixture can clump together and form crystals, resulting in a gritty texture rather than the smooth and fluffy texture that is characteristic of marshmallow fluff. The syrup also helps to keep the mixture stable and prevents it from collapsing after being whipped, resulting in a light and airy texture.
