About Cuberdon
Léopold’s traditional raspberry cuberdon is a Belgian sweet with a thin sugar crust and a soft, syrupy centre. Its maker identifies raspberry as the original flavour.
Sugar and glucose form the syrup, with gelatin and gum arabic providing the gelling ingredients. Natural raspberry flavouring and the maker’s named colourings complete the mixture.
Starch moulds hold the syrup while the outer crust develops. Once released from the moulds, the sweets retain the contrast between a delicate shell and the liquid sweetness inside.
