The very word conjures up so many wonderful images: caramels, lollipops,
chocolate covered nuts, marshmallows, fudge, chewing gum, citrus rinds, cotton
candy, candy bars, and so on. Carole Bloom in her "The International Dictionary
of Desserts, Pastries, and Confections" defines 'candy' as any of a variety of
confections made with sugar and often combined with chocolate, fruit, and/or
nuts. The word 'candy' comes from the Arabic 'gandi' which means 'sugar
confection' or 'made of sugar'.
