Why do they give sugar coated almonds at weddings?
Jordan Almonds are a type of confectionery consisting of almonds covered with a hard sugar coating in various pastel colors. They are often used as wedding favors, due to the “bitter” almonds and the “sweet” sugar representing bittersweet married life. However, they are not available only at weddings, being used as gifts and simply as candy on other occasions. Jordan almonds commonly come in pastel, spring themed colors such as lilac, pale yellow, light green, and white.
