Jordan almond

Coated sugared nut

A Jordan almond is a large, pastel-colored almond covered in a hard sugar shell, traditionally given as favors at weddings and other celebrations.

The candy coating comes in soft colors like white, pink, blue, and lavender.

In wedding traditions, Jordan almonds are often bundled in groups of five, each representing a wish for the couple: health, wealth, happiness, fertility, and longevity.

The reception tables were decorated with tulle bags of Jordan almonds.
