Gozinaki (Georgian: გოზინაყი gozinaq’i, pronounced [ɡozinaqʼi]) is a traditional Georgian confection made of caramelized nuts, usually walnuts, and fried in honey.

[1][2][3] In the western Georgian provinces of Imereti and Racha, it was sometimes called "churchkhela", a name more commonly applied to walnuts sewn onto a string, dipped in thickened white grape juice and dried.

[2] In several of Georgia's rural areas, both walnuts and honey used to have sacral associations.

According to a long-established tradition, Gozinaki is served at special occasions, and is a mandatory component of New Year's Eve[2][4] and Christmas celebrations.
