ribbon candy
Folded holiday sweet
Ribbon candy is a traditional hard candy made by folding thin sheets of sugar into wavy, ribbon-like folds, typically in bright colors.
Associated with Christmas and old-fashioned candy shops, it's decorative but notoriously difficult to eat without shattering: Grandma always put out ribbon candy at the holidays.
