Candy Skulls are colorful, decorative skulls made from sugar, often associated with the Day of the Dead celebration in Mexico. These sweet treats are typically adorned with bright icing and designs, representing the lives of deceased loved ones. They are often placed on altars, known as ofrendas, as a way to honor and remember those who have passed away. The tradition of making Candy Skulls dates back to ancient times, blending indigenous customs with Catholic influences. While they are primarily made for the Day of the Dead, they have become popular worldwide, symbolizing both remembrance and the celebration of life.
