You asked for it, here it is. Everyone loves this sticky, succulent mass of sugary love. Pellucid blocks of frosted yielding goodness, something which sticks in your teeth and you don’t want to get rid of it. Slightly rosy, or is that lemony? It doesn’t matter. This candy is like a swoon.

The painting is by Dominique Ingres. It is one of his Turkish Harem series. The format is called a “tondo” which is arty talk for a round picture.
