A dragée ( drazh-AY, UK also DRAH-zhay, US also drah-ZHAY; French: [dʁaʒe]) is a bite-sized piece of confectionery with a hard outer shell. Dragées come in various shapes and sizes and are often used for decorative purposes, particularly in pastries and desserts. They are also popular as a type of candy, with the coating providing a sweet or flavorful contrast to the center. Historically, dragées were sometimes made with medicinal ingredients, but today they are primarily eaten as a sweet treat.
