DESCRIPTION

Cream Filberts: The Perfect Easter Sweet


Why are Cream Filberts the perfect Easter Sweets? Because they are tasty, nicely textured, and a traditional treat dating back for centuries. This spring time delight contains a filbert surrounded by creamed sugar which is then surrounded by a crisp sugar shell. The flavor is sweet but not cloying, followed by the nutty taste of the filbert within. The texture is unlike any you’ve had before. It starts with a gentle crunch of the sugar coating surrounding the candy, followed by a smooth, creamy sugar layer, which ends with the crunch (not too hard but not soft) of the filbert. What’s just as exciting about cream filberts is its story: it’s a version of sugar plums, a sweet was valued enjoyed and enjoyed all year round for centuries… and still is today!

Cream Filbert? Mothball Candy? What Is in a Name?

If the term “cream filbert” doesn’t sound familiar, the alternate name might. That would be “mothball candy.” What happened is this: cream filberts became a popular candy in the 19th century and early 20th century. Then, as with so many things, the venerable candy’s popularity
wanned.

Just when it seemed that the cream filbert was all but forgotten, it rose up in the mid-1900s as the ubiquitous mothball candy. Why mothball? Because they looked like those mothballs that spared expensive clothing from the ravishes of moths, although they left a scent on the clothing, homes, and individuals who used them.

Eventually, the mothball candy/cream filbert fell into anonymity, skirting the edges of those forgotten candies we now call retro. One thing is sure –popularity, riches, and fame may wan….but Cream Filberts will always belong to the True Treats family. Look at what Susan reveals about the alluring past of cream filberts.
