CEOChristmas candy (“szaloncukor”) is a traditional Hungarian Christmas treat. These small, sugar- or chocolate-coated bonbons are wrapped in colorful foil and hung on the branches of the Christmas tree. Inside, they contain various fillings such as jelly, coconut, marzipan, or caramel. Szaloncukor serves both as decoration and candy, and families often prepare or select them together. In Hungary, Christmas is unimaginable without it, as there are hundreds of flavors and brands to choose from. Its origin dates back to 19th-century German fondant candies, but it has since become a completely Hungarian tradition. It’s not only delicious but also a symbol of the festive holiday spirit.
