Perhaps the best part of art candy is how beautiful it looks. Also known as “cut rock”, art candy is less of a rock and more of a painting cast on a very small (and edible) canvas. Regardless, the flavors are sweet and somewhat fruity, each piece comfortably small. Art candy also mixes well with ribbon candy, chocolate sticks, and other delights, especially in a seasonal bowl. It’s funny to imagine that art candy started at beach-side resorts in England, late 1800s! Comes in a stand-up bag.

Historical Insights
When I think of candy and the idea of giving, I think of the
candy bowls grandmothers of a certain generation left out for their children and grandchildren. These women grew up during the Depression and wars when sugar shortages were common and sweets hard to find. Once sugar was available they filled their bowls to the brim with brightly colored sweets, as ornamental
as delicious. It’s no surprise some of these candies became standard Christmas
fare, such as the art candy, ribbon candy, and candy straws.
