DESCRIPTION
French Creams are by far the most elegant of candies – perfect for Easter and just about any occasion. They are pastel-hued, in the traditional leaf and elaborate flower shape, each tucked in their own candy cups. The flavor various – sweet, minty, ora combination of both. In the best old-fashioned style, they have a lightly crisp shell and a creamy sugar interior. French creams are well-suited for tea, do well as an after-dinner sweet, and at a card game where guests can hold the delight sweet in one hand and the cards at another. No matter where you serve them, they’re as tasteful as they are tasty.

Cream candies go back for centuries, when sugar was stirred and refined into a creamy paste. The so-called French creams, while not actually French, have a European flair. Another example – which should not be missed - is cream filberts of the late 1700s… a nut coated with creamed sugar made especially for grown-ups. Children enjoyed cream candies, much like cake frosting, as an inexpensive treat starting in the mid-1800s, while grown-up versions were more decorative and fanciful. So what flavors did the old fashion creams come in? It’s amazing! Find out here.

I bought the French creams for my mom, who has always had a fondness for them since going to the Montgomery Ward candy counter as a child. It seems like on the rare occasion you see them anymore, they're a pale recreation. This was exactly as she remembered. Thanks so much!
