NATIONAL CANDY DAY – November 4

Candy history

Middle English first began using the word candy in the late 13th century. Borrowed from the Old French cucre candi, it is derived in turn from Persian Qand and Qandi's cane sugar.

Candy is used by people as a broad category.. As candy, we treat candy bars, chocolates, licorice, sour candies, salty candies, tart candies, hard candies, taffies, marshmallows, marshmallows, and much more.

Sugar, on the other hand, was not always readily available. Instead, people made the first candies made from honey. Honey was used by candymakers to coat nuts, fruits, and flowers. This method preserved the flowers and nuts or made candy shapes. This method also made candy molds. We still make these cookies today, but we often use them as a garnish..
