orbet

Orbet refers to a type of confection, often a small, hard candy. These candies are typically fruit-flavored and have a smooth, polished surface, giving them a slightly glossy appearance. Orbet candies are known for their long-lasting flavor and are often enjoyed as a simple, sweet treat. They can be found in a variety of colors, usually corresponding to their flavor.

The manufacturing process for orbets generally involves cooking sugar syrup to a specific temperature, adding flavorings and colorings, and then shaping the mixture into small, round pieces. The hard candy texture is achieved through the rapid cooling and crystallization of the sugar. While the exact origins of the term "orbet" are not widely documented, it is understood to describe this specific form of hard candy. They are a common item in candy stores and are often sold in bulk or pre-packaged bags. The simplicity of their ingredients and production has made them a consistent presence in the confectionery market for many years.
