I live in NRW and have never heard anyone call them Mäusespeck either

I guess you are born in this century. In the 80 it was what was written on the products in the supermarket.

For me "Mäusespeck" are smaller marshmallows that usually come in white and pink and in different shapes. Sometimes the shape of a mouse. Marshmallows are the larger white and cylindrical or cube ones that you put on a stick to roast on a campfire before eating.

You have mouse shaped marshmallows?

Unfair.
