Candy, specifically sugar candy, is a confection made from a concentrated solution of sugar in water, to which flavorings and colorants are added. Candies come in numerous colors and varieties and have a long history in popular culture. The word "candy" comes from the Sanskrit "ahn-da", meaning "piece," which again perhaps from Dravidian." In North America, candy is a broad category that includes candy bars, chocolates, licorice, sour candies, salty candies, tart candies, hard candies, taffies, gumdrops, marshmallows, and more. Vegetables, fruit or nuts glazed and coated with sugar are called candied. Candy is considered unhealthy by many. Outside North America, the generic name for candy is sweets or confectionery. In Australia and New Zealand, sweets are, in normal usage, further categorized as either chocolate or lollies.
