Their origin dates back to Antiquity and has evolved over the centuries. The first sugared almonds, known as “comfits,” were almonds covered in honey and hardened. These sweets were often used to aid digestion after meals.

During the Renaissance, sugared almonds gained popularity among European nobility where they were often given as gifts on special occasions. Recipes and manufacturing techniques evolved at this time.

Sugared almonds come in a multitude of varieties and colors, meeting the expectations of all occasions, whether weddings, baptisms or simple moments of indulgence.
