Mix the flour with the sugar, eggs, butter, grated lemon and a pinch of salt. Knead well and leave to rest for two hours.
At the conclusion of this period, take the dough a piece at a time, forming logs half a centimeter in thickness and cut into cubes.
Lightly flour and fry in plenty of hot oil. In the meantime, boil the honey and sugar with 4 tablespoons of water in a large pan.
When the syrup has turned a golden colour, pour it on the struffoli with some of the candies and quickly and delicately stir with a wooden spoon until they are coated. At this point, place on a plate and serve with candied fruit and the sugared almonds.
