More than 5x expansion verified. Newness verified. Policy compliance verified. No copyvios detected. However, I can find the reference about macun used only as medicine during classical antiquity on page 87 of the citation but the only other mention resembling "confectionery" is at the bottom of page 87 when it is described as "sweetmeats". But that description does not mention classical antiquity. Dr. K. 01:52, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
