The Sugar Plum Fairy is one of the most recognizable and beloved characters from Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky’s classic ballet, The Nutcracker. She is the ruler of the Land of Sweets, a magical realm where Clara and the Nutcracker Prince journey in the second act of the ballet. The Sugar Plum Fairy is typically portrayed as a graceful and regal figure, embodying the sweetness and whimsy of her candy kingdom. This figure is the final one to appear in the Nutcracker Series from PAMP Suisse and MTB.

In most productions, the Sugar Plum Fairy appears near the end of the ballet to perform a grand pas de deux with her Cavalier. This dance is set to some of the most famous music in the entire work, including the delicate, tinkling melody often associated with the character. The dance showcases the ballerina’s technical skill and artistry, requiring precise footwork, fluid arm movements, and an ethereal quality that brings the fairy-like character to life.
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is on the obverse of 2024 Colorized Solomon Islands Silver Nutcracker Sugar Plum Fairy Coins. This right-profile relief was created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley and shows the Queen wearing the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara. The field includes a date mark, a snowflake, and a serial number.
