édességekben

édességekben is a Hungarian term that functions as the locative plural form of édesség, meaning "in desserts." It is used to indicate location or presence within desserts as a general category, rather than within a single dessert. The base noun édesség refers to a sweet or dessert; its plural is édességek, and the locative suffix -ben attaches to the plural stem to yield édességekben. This formation follows standard Hungarian vowel harmony rules and is typical of locative constructions in Hungarian.

In usage, édességekben appears in culinary writing, nutritional discussions, and linguistic explanations to discuss features that are characteristic of desserts as a category—such as ingredients, textures, or flavors that are found in many desserts. It does not designate a specific dessert but rather the realm of desserts collectively.

Example: A cukor az édességekben gyakori összetevő. Translation: Sugar is a common ingredient in desserts.

Related forms include édességében (in its dessert) for a singular, definite reference and édességekben used with plural contexts. The term is primarily a grammatical and descriptive device rather than a standalone concept, and its meaning relies on the surrounding narrative to specify which desserts are being discussed.
