If you look it up in the dictionary, a sugar plum is described as a hard candy that is made of boiled sugar. I always assumed it was just one of those 'old fashioned' things like figgy pudding or fruit cake. I went all of my childhood and most of my adult life not knowing.

I know we've all heard sugar plums mentioned in Christmas songs, poems, and there's even a fairy named after them in the Nutcracker. Somehow, so many people haven't! What is a sugar plum?
