The marshmallow is an exclusive consumable item found only in Night 3 of the Roblox horror game Residence Massacre (created by MisterGamer_67). Found while scavenging Lakeview Camp before midnight, it functions as a critical stamina and health recovery tool during chases against the Mutated Worker and the Spider. Depending on whether you eat it raw, perfectly roasted, or burnt, the marshmallow provides entirely different survival buffs or self-inflicted damage.
Marshmallow Spawn Locations and Appearance
Marshmallows generate in set quantities across Lakeview Camp based entirely on your lobby size:
- Solo and Duo lobbies: Exactly 2 marshmallows spawn across the map.
- Trio and Squad lobbies: Exactly 3 marshmallows spawn across the map.
While sitting on shelves, drawers, or tables inside the cabins and the main lodge, the item appears as a pink marshmallow package bag. Once you pick it up, its visual model changes into a white marshmallow shaped like a classic Robloxian head impaled on a wooden stick. It is a one-time use item that disappears from your inventory as soon as you click or tap your screen to consume it.
Marshmallow Cooking States and Effects
The effects of eating a marshmallow depend on how long you hold it over the campfire located near Cabin 3.
| Marshmallow State | Visual & Audio Indicator | Health Effect | Stamina Effect | Practical Combat Utility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Raw (Default) | Standard white Robloxian head | None (+0 HP) | Restores stamina to 100% | Emergency stamina refill when looping anomalies. |
| Perfectly Cooked | Roasted golden/yellow hue; distinct ding sound cue | Restores +25 HP | Restores 100% stamina and grants 3 seconds of infinite stamina | Superior to Bloxy Cola; heals Spider bites and allows long outdoor sprints. |
| Overcooked | Slightly too dark past the ding cue | None (+0 HP) | None (0% stamina) | Useless; provides no benefits. |
| Burnt | Blackened texture emitting fire and smoke | Deals -15 damage | None (0% stamina) | Dangerous liability; only eaten to obtain a specific badge. |
If you eat a raw marshmallow, it acts identically to Lemonade by immediately refilling your stamina bar to full. However, perfectly toasting it transforms it into one of the best survival consumables in Night 3, outperforming standard Bloxy Cola by combining a full stamina refill, a 3-second golden infinite stamina bar, and on-demand healing.
How to Perfectly Cook a Marshmallow
You can roast marshmallows during the daytime preparation phase before triggering the lodge cutscene, as there is no active timer while collecting gas cans.
- Search the main lodge and Cabins 1 through 3 to find a pink marshmallow bag.
- Head to the outdoor campfire situated directly beside Cabin 3.
- Equip the marshmallow in your active inventory slot and walk directly up to the campfire to place it near the flame.
- Listen closely to the game audio for a distinct, sharp ding chime.
- Interact with the marshmallow immediately as soon as the chime rings to retrieve the golden roasted marshmallow.
If you leave the item by the fire for even a few seconds after the ding chime, it will overcook and lose all benefits. Leaving it longer causes it to catch fire, turning it completely black.
If another player initiates the lodge cutscene while your marshmallow is still sitting by the fire, you do not lose it. The game automatically collects the marshmallow in its current cooking state and places it directly back into your inventory once the cutscene begins.
Related Badges and Rewards
Cooking and eating marshmallows at the Lakeview Camp campfire unlocks two separate official Roblox badges in Residence Massacre:
- Perfect Cook: Awarded for eating a perfectly cooked marshmallow after retrieving it on the ding sound cue. This badge awards players the "Chef Hat" cosmetic hat.
- Hell's Kitchen: Awarded for deliberately allowing a marshmallow to catch fire at the Cabin 3 campfire and consuming the burnt version. This badge awards 10 Coins, though it will inflict 15 points of damage upon consumption.
Survival Strategy for Night 3
Because ammunition for the shotgun is capped at only two shells per reload and anomalies adapt to repeated gunfire, stamina management is your primary defense when navigating outside.
Save your perfectly cooked marshmallows for emergency transitions between cabins. When the Mutated Worker searches your current cabin, or when a Spider forces you to abandon your room while you are out of ammo, pop a roasted marshmallow right as you sprint out the door. The 3 seconds of infinite stamina allows you to reach a secondary cabin or the crossroad ammo crates without depleting your primary energy pool.
If you take damage from a Spider lunge or window jumpscare (which deals 35 health damage), the 25 HP heal from a perfectly cooked marshmallow can keep you alive through subsequent encounters.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you cook marshmallows in Night 1 or Night 2?
No. Marshmallows are exclusive to Night 3 at Lakeview Camp. They do not spawn in the standard house during Night 1 or inside the factory during Night 2.
What happens if you drop or leave a burnt marshmallow?
A burnt marshmallow provides no survival benefits and damages you for 15 HP if eaten. If you have already unlocked the Hell's Kitchen badge, you should drop or ignore burnt marshmallows completely rather than eating them.
Can you buy marshmallows from the pre-game item shop?
No. Marshmallows cannot be purchased with TIX or coins in the lobby shop. They only appear as map loot during the Night 3 preparation phase.
