Welcome to the Celtnet Sweets and Candies Recipes Home Page

Welcome to Celtnet's Sweets and Candies Recipes Page — This is a continuation of an entire series of pages that will, I hope, allow my visitors to better navigate this site. As well as displaying recipes by name, country and region of origin I am now planning a whole series of pages where recipes can be located by meal type and main ingredient. This page gives a listing of all the Sweets and Candies recipes added to this site. For the most part, sweets and candies are made by reducing a sugar-based liquid to a syrup and allowing this to cool. The syrup may be flavoured with a number of substances and can be thickened by the addition of starches such as arrowroot and potato starch. As well as these traditional sweets candies can also be made from chocolate or chocolate substitutes such as carob. Here I attempt to bring together as many recipes for sweets and candies from as many countries and historical periods as possible.

Alphabetical list of Sweet and Candy recipes follow (limited to 100 recipes per page). There are 208 recipes in total:
