About Boiled sweet

Boiled sweets, also known as hard candies, are a type of confectionery made by dissolving sugar in water and boiling the mixture until it reaches a high temperature, then cooling it into solid shapes. Originating from European traditions, they have been enjoyed globally for centuries. These candies often include flavorings such as fruit essences or peppermint and may be colored for visual appeal. While boiled sweets are fat-free and low in calories per piece, they are predominantly composed of sugar, offering little nutritional value and posing a risk for tooth decay when consumed in excess. Their simplicity and durability make them a popular treat, but moderation is key to minimizing negative health impacts.
