crushed candy

Smashed sugary confections

Crushed candy is candy that has been broken into small pieces or powder, typically by smashing or grinding.

It serves as a topping for desserts, decoration for cakes, or mix-in for ice cream: Sprinkle crushed candy canes over the hot chocolate.

The phrase also appears in mobile gaming, where Candy Crush players speak of crushed candy when matching and eliminating game pieces.
