--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
**Candy,** also called **sweets** or **lollies**, is a confection[2] that features sugar[3] as a principal ingredient. The category, called *sugar confectionery[4]*, encompasses any sweet confection, including chocolate[5], chewing gum[6], and sugar candy[7]. Vegetables, fruit, or nuts which have been glazed and coated with sugar are said to be *candied[8]*.

Physically, candy is characterized by the use of a significant amount of sugar, or, in the case of sugar-free candies, by the presence of sugar substitutes[9]. Unlike a cake or loaf of bread that would be shared among many people, candies are usually made in smaller pieces. However, the definition of candy also depends upon how people treat the food. Unlike sweet pastries served for a dessert[10] course at the end of a meal, candies are normally eaten casually, often with the fingers, as a snack between meals. Each culture has its own ideas of what constitutes candy rather than dessert. The same food may be a candy in one culture and a dessert in another.
