It took me a minute or two to figure out what was actually going on here because Zuckerschmuck is a not existing, but gramatically very regular and usual German composite word that means "sugar jewelry".

I just imagined this word meaning a thing that looks amazing at first glance but turns out to be a real piece of shit. Like jewelry made of sugar gems which melt in the rain.

Would that category include things like candy necklaces and ring pops?
