A confectionery product is provided. The product includes a hollow body formed by at least one first material. Present on the outer surface itself of the product is a second material, different from said first material, which reproduces a decorative element. The hollow body comprises a first outer layer, formed by the first material and at least one second layer, formed by the second material, which is set internally, on the first layer. The first layer has an opening that allows a portion of the second layer to emerge on the outer surface, so as to form the decorative element. The first outer layer and the portion of the second layer together define the outer surface. The second layer coats the inner side of the first layer at least partially and at a position away from the opening.
