In neighboring countries, dates were replaced by figs, nuts, apricots with spices, boiled in honey. The next step in the candy era was sugar. In India, they began to produce fruit in sugar. (Who among the readers does not remember modern cranberries in sugar?) At various festivals, guests were thrown sweets. The one who caught the luck awaited. In Italy, this tradition was preserved, but the candies were replaced by colored confetti papers.
