Chestnut glazes are marrons (or chestnuts) candied in sugar syrup, then dried to obtain a crystallized texture. This sweet delicacy is a specialty of French cuisine. Chestnuts are first peeled, cooked in a sugar syrup, and then glazed several times until they take on a brilliant color and crunchy texture on the outside, while retaining their softness on the inside. Marrons glacés are often eaten as a confection, as a dessert, or used to garnish pastries and cakes. They are particularly popular during the festive season.
