Staty

Staty refers to a type of small, typically spherical or ovoid, candy. These candies are known for their hard exterior and often a chewy or soft center. The name "staty" is derived from the Czech word for "candy," and the confection is particularly popular in Central European countries. While specific flavors can vary widely, common varieties include fruit flavors, licorice, and sometimes mint. The hard shell provides a lasting sweetness, gradually dissolving to reveal the contrasting texture within. Staty candies are often sold in small bags or rolls and are a popular treat for both children and adults. Their simple yet satisfying composition has contributed to their enduring popularity in their regions of origin and among those who discover them.
