John Lawson's suggestion of Marshmallow has two primary meanings, a confection and the plant whose root wsd initially an ingredient in it. The best-known example of a piece named after a manufactured food is Waffle - Wazir+Alfil - and the best known with a plant name is Rose - an extension of the Knight. So perhaps Marshmallow should be Wazir+Rose, and as completeness would also require a Rook+Rose combniation I would suggest Marshranger for that.
