Here is a great quote, that just about sums up many peoples thoughts on candy:
“I would stand transfixed before the windows of the confectioners’ shops, fascinated by the luminous sparkle of candied fruits, the cloudy lustre of jellies, the kaleidoscope inflorescence of acidulated fruitdrops — red, green, orange, violet: I coveted the colours themselves as much as the pleasure they promised me.”
Simone de Beauvoir (1908-1986) French Existentialist, writer
