Marron glace is the candied chestnut Turin claims as its sweet: skinless chestnuts soaked in heavy syrup for days, then wrapped in silver paper.
Marron glace, candied chestnuts, has been made at Stratta on Piazza San Carlo in Turin since 1836 and the family supplied the House of Savoy. The marrons are the larger sweet-chestnut cultivar from the Cuneo hills; the candying process takes several days of slow syrup penetration. Today they cost about 4 euros each and appear at every formal Piedmontese table for Christmas.
