Suikerboon
A suikerboon (Dutch), or sugar bean, is a type of sweet traditionally given on the occasion of the birth or baptism of a child in Belgium, where they are also known as doopsuiker (Dutch), or baptism sugar, and parts of the Netherlands. In French, they are called dragées. They have a strong resemblance with Jordan almonds and Italian Confetti.
