How to make candied ginger:
These candies are very similar to the candied fruits that were traditionally available at Christmas. They were meant to be eaten as sweets or possibly as a dessert at the end of the meal. Candied fruit can also be used as decoration for cakes and trifles. See Cooking with Sugar for information on the tricky process of boiling sugar.
