La Violeta, desde 1915

One of the cutest shops in Madrid sells the most exquisite candy! The iconic violet candies from La Violeta (caramelos de violeta) are thanks to a guarded family recipe that uses real violet essence. As a result, these delicious candies have a clean, sweet violet taste and incredible aroma. Pressed to look like a blooming violet with five distinct petals and sold in color coordinated floral tins, they really are irresistible. No wonder these candies have been a favorite of Madrileños and Spanish royalty for more than a century.
