What it is

Enjoy these candy twists straight from the package for a quick and satisfying treat. They can be used to add a fun element to dessert presentations, such as decorating cakes, cupcakes, or ice cream sundaes. For a creative touch, they can be broken into smaller pieces and sprinkled over cookies or brownies. Some bakers even use them as edible building materials for gingerbread houses or other confectionery creations, adding both color and a chewy texture.
How it differs from similar foods
