Of course, they were always sweet, they were always tasty, pleased children and adults. These amazing diverse pastry products have always been a small size and various assortment. Remembered?
Each person has their favorite tastes from childhood. Each people have sweets that traditionally reflect the life, life, conditions and customs of this people. Oriental Sweets: Halva, Candy, Nuts and Pahlava, Sherbet, jam, dried and dried fruits. In each people, the country, the tribes retain these customs. Asian sweets like Eastern people, attract Europeans. Africans have their own flavor, its highlight. In some reed sugar and its derivatives, others have chocolate, dairy iris, caramel. We all love.
Sweets have always attracted children, but they were not always in prosperity. Often recall the desserts that we like from childhood. A gift for the new year, for Christmas, candy for a holiday, a cake or a birthday cake. And also pastries, cupcakes, marshmallows, bagels, pies with jam. Sometimes they rejoiced just bread with jam.
The post-war generation of sweets is not very spoiled, they were bought a little, and only on large holidays. How much was joy when sweets and different delicacies were treated! Recall the rooster on a stick for 5 kopecks, which grandmother brought from the market on Saturday. That joy was! Lollipop can be killed a feeling of hunger, and the one who has smoked before, is also distracted by candy.
Our great-grandmother always had a few sweets in his pocket, she would have treated us, encouraged for good deeds. Grandfather every morning treated his horse a piece of black bread, sugar or candy. It turns out that the horse loves them too. If you want to make friends with her - treat a piece of bread and sugar. Yes, and dogs are friends with those who give candy. Remembered?
Each person has many stories that are associated with delicacies. Relatives from Moscow have always brought huge chocolates and candy-assorted, well, any other. And we have envied the city children for the fact that they had a large selection of ice cream. In rural children, this product was rare, and there was no special choice. Over time, everything has changed for the better.
Candy "Swallow", "Bear club", "Bear in the north", "whiter". It seemed that these were the most delicious candy in the world. Chocolate sweets with nuts have always been on the New Year's table and in gifts. These are the symbols of our era that have their own century traditions.
Previously, all products were only natural: chocolate, cocoa, sugar, nuts, milk. This was very strictly followed and controlled. No one had and thoughts to replace natural products. Now the manufacturer often applies these substitutes, additives, dyes, flavors.
In addition, there were candies: Iris "Kis-Kis" and "Tuzik", Iris "Milk" and "Buratino". Caramels were especially remembered, there were a lot of them. Loved babaris children, mint, flight, raspberry.
Sometimes a grandmother was pleased with snacks. She herself loved to cook on dessert pie, pies with poppies or fruits. At the holiday always made a biscuit cake. And even milk kissel with vanilla, fruit kissel, compote from dried fruit with smoked prunes. On weekends we were taught with grandmother pancakes with the most different stuffing. All natural and no substitutes.
Sometimes we took dried fruits in your pockets and fir them, playing on the street. Tasty and very helpful. And sometimes grandmother cooked us home Irisky or caramel in the mold. Products for them are also only natural: milk, sugar, lemon, honey and butter. Everything perfectly turned out.
Time passed, and now we are already glad of grandchildren with various sweets from our happy childhood. Tell us in the comments about your memoirs of childhood, about your favorite sweets. What are you now treating children at home? What recipes from the past are you pleased?
