What is a Moth Ball (A.K.A. Snow Ball, Cream Filbert)?
Cream Filberts- (Also known as Snowballs or Mothballs) The Crystallized Hazelnuts are an old-time favorite! These Cream Filberts are the old-fashioned way. The filberts (hazelnuts) are panned in copper kettles until the whole nut is encased in crystallized sugar, a time-consuming process that takes days, but one we're sure you'll find well worth the effort. Whether you prefer to let these sweet treats slowly melt in your mouth until you get to the filbert nut or simply bite right into them, you won't be able to resist them. 1lb. bag contains approx. 40 candies.
They are not only delicious, but they also have a spectacular appearance as a centerpiece bowl, as a plated dessert, and they make a great snowman for gingerbread houses.
