BEAUTIFUL ART OF CANDY! DELICIOUS...I hope they can reopen. Was in a cool Deco building & thru the front window you could watch them create the silk like threads & you could pick your desired fillings. So amazing to watch & then yummmy & delicate to eat. So sad...curses COVID-19.

Dragon Papa makes dragon beard candy and other snacks reminiscent of the kind of sweet treats you might get from vendors at a street market. I'm not sure how they're doing regular business right now, but they had a stand at the Ferry Building Farmer's Market on Saturday where I was able to pick up a box for myself. The owners were super friendly and told us all about their multi-generational family business, how they make the candy, and their entire backstory which was super interesting. They candy itself is pretty pricey (I think it was $13 for a box of 8 pieces), but given how labor intensive it is to make (he told me they could make only make up to 7 boxes in one hour) and how delicious they are (we easily finished the whole box in a day), I'd say it's not unreasonable. Each piece is made up of hundreds of threads of pulled sugar wrapped around a filling made of ground coconut, peanut, and sesame. They're not too sweet and a bit messy (but really fun) to eat. It's definitely a unique treat that you have to try for yourself!

A must try!!! The first time I ever saw this candy being made was at the street food market in Seoul. The technique is quite entertaining, and the candy is unique and delicious. Impossibly thin threads of sugar are spun around a crumbly filling of crushed peanuts, sesame seeds, and coconut. It's hard to describe, so you need to just try it for yourself! The end result looks like a cocoon. They currently have a pop up at the Ferry Building on Farmers Market Saturdays, through the end of March. I hope they extended the special run. Flavors offered today were original, matcha, strawberry, and coffee. You can't go wrong with any of them!
