Well, I love them all. Everything sweet and nicey for me. But I do love those shiny twisty don't know what they are called, oh, ribbon candies. They are vintage now and I can get them if I want them. But of course will I? Am I on a diet for Christmas? I think not. Are you going to be dieting for Christmas? Interesting facts I love marizapan and so did my Mama RIP, I miss her so at Christmas time. What is the oldest Christmas candy? Traditional Christmas Candy: Remember the Good Old Days? One of the oldest traditional candies eaten for special occasions like Christmas is marzipan. This almond-based confection dates back centuries, with origins in Asia, the Middle East, and Europe. Each region has its own uses for the sweet.

I used to love ribbon candy as a kid ! Your sweet Mama . . . did she make her own marzipan? I think I first had that in my 20s. I will take any chocolate - Christmas kind or not .

Marzipan is a bit rich for me. I do like After Eight mints and cheese footballs

I'm not big on those ribbon and other types of Christmas candies OT. I'm more of a Christmas cookie kind of guy, lol. But if chocolate covered sprinkled pretzels can be considered one, I'm all in. Also, those Ferrero Rocher chocolates are very tasty!!!

Peppermint bark (white chocolate with candy cane pieces in it). And yes, I’m still “dieting” (it’s a lifestyle now, after three years).

I remember those ribbon candies from when I was a kid. Haven't had them in years but I do remember my mom having them around during the holidays. My favorite Christmas candy these days would be chocolate covered cherries. and NO I'm not dieting for the holidays
