How to Use Spoon Sweets?

[acamp7]

I am about to make my first ever spoon sweet. Someone told me that there was a it of a ritual associated with it?

I went over someone's house once and they gave me some spoon sweets with some Greek coffee and water. I am kind of getting the feeling that this is a pretty typical experience?

Besides the ritual, how else are spoon sweets used? Can I eat them like jam?

I just tuck into a jar when I need a sugar hit with my coffee.

Yes, you can absolutely use it like jam. I loooooove putting it on my yogurt and on my ice cream. Sometime it just eat a spoonful out of the jar. I even put it in my tea.

Yes! I use it like jam, as well. You can really do anything with it. I love the idea, Pemi, of adding it to yogurt and ice cream!
