Handcrafted hard candy with Molasses & Icelandic Seasalt

Hard, glassy candy with the deep, cooked-sugar taste of molasses and a light finish of Icelandic sea salt. You let it dissolve on the tongue: sweet at first, then a caramel note, then the salt lifts it so it never turns cloying. One piece with a cup of coffee is the whole point.

Kandís is the Icelandic word for sugar candy, long the small sweet offered to guests with coffee. This version follows a mid-20th-century recipe with sea salt added, made by hand by Kandís, whose sweets are flavoured with Icelandic herbs, berries and other natural ingredients.
