HANUKKAH GELT
“Giving gifts of money (gelt) has been a tradition since the 17th century. It began with parents giving gelt to teachers, then later to children as a reward for Torah study. Today the ‘gelt’ is made of gold and silver foil-wrapped chocolate coins packed in small pouches reminiscent of money bags. You can buy chocolate coins but it’s easy to make chocolate discs at home and dust with edible gold or silver shimmer.”
