A spot of white in the turquoise waters of the Aegean Sea, the island of Naxos is a unique blend of ancient ruins and beach culture. The largest of the Cycladic Islands, Naxos is the childhood home of none other than Zeus, king of the gods. Upon arrival in Naxos, hike over a causeway to Palatia, where the Portara, a stone gateway to an ancient temple that no longer exists, stands alone, the symbol of the island. At sunset, the views of the island, and the sea beyond, are breathtaking.

We are a family business. We produce homemade candies using local flavors like sage, kitron, lemon, orange, mastic, ouzo, lime chili and many flavors for the young children. All the production takes place in front of the visitors who can have free taste of hot and fresh candies and can discover their favorite flavor.
Pick up extra jars, you will thank me. I am just finishing the last jar of candies. Even though it reads best before July 2019, it’s still hard, sweet and delicious. The best handmade hard candy I’ve had. It’s just delicious. I hope they will accommodate my request and ship to my home in Florida, USA.
