Dalgona is a nostalgic Korean street candy made by melting sugar and whipping it with a touch of baking soda until it aerates into a brittle, honeycomb-like toffee. Street vendors press playful shapes into each disk, challenging children to nibble the candy without breaking the outline—turning a simple sweet into a miniature game. Light, golden, and delicate, dalgona is a memory of schoolyards, snacks, and old-fashioned charm.
