Dragon Beard Candy can probably be best described to a total stranger of this sweet as a tasty little cocoon shaped morsel. Most people who have tried this treat will say the sensation is quite similar to cotton candy. However, those who eat it after it has been sitting on the shelf for a bit may say it feels more like taffy.
Break it open to reveal the nutty and coconut goodness. The contents may vary depending on the maker.
Of course, it’s probably best to eat the whole thing in one bite as the flaking powder can cause a big mess. If you are looking for some, you are most likely to find it being sold by street venders in Hong Kong, China or the local China Town.
