Who knows about Christmas candy?? The ancestor of Christmas sugar is fondant sugar, which comes from France. The XIV. began production in the 16th century. The fondant sugar was made from a sugar solution, the sugar was boiled and a soft, crystallized mass was obtained from it. It spread in Hungary in the late 1800s. In the salon of noble houses, this sweet was offered to guests arriving at the house in small bowls at Christmas. Hence its name: Christmas sugar. The name of the candy comes from the German word salonzuckerl. The custom of setting up a Christmas tree at Christmas comes from Germany. But decorating the Christmas tree with Christmas candy is a completely Hungarian tradition. Setting up the first Christmas trees in Hungary was the privilege of wealthy families. At first, the Christmas tree was decorated with gingerbread, dried fruits, and homemade decorations made of paper. Later, the candy offered in the salon from a bowl was placed on the Christmas tree as an ornament. We still have this tradition, we decorate the Christmas tree with colorful Christmas balls, Christmas candy, and candles. When we were kids, we tied a braid of Christmas candy and hung it on the Christmas tree. But it used to be, I like to remember that. Here are some photos of Christmas candies. It is already available in all kinds of flavors and in all kinds of colored packaging. Jelly in coconut, chestnut, rum, and other flavors. I like jelly the most. And here’s the photo, handmade, fabric-made Christmas candy, inside is caramel, I got it from one of my acquaintances. Another 30 minutes and December arrives! #myphoto #originalcontent #Hungary #tradition

I haven't seen it here where they use actual candies or as what you're telling about Christmas candies. Maybe because sweets attract ants so they don't use it here.😁
