Candied sweet potatoes also known as candied yams can be made in a variety of different ways, recipes can be found on the Whole Foods Market, Betty Crocker and All Recipes websites.

In the US, what is marketed as 'yams' or 'candied yams' are actually the same thing as sweet potatoes. In Africa and such places you can find real yams, which are whitish pink to purple in color. The only way to tell whether (canned) sweet potatoes or the ones packaged as yams have more sugar is to read the labels of the individual brands.
however long you want. they will go bad but you can still have them on your table
There are a wide range of simple recipes for candied yams. One that was found included 4 cups chopped sweet potatoes, 1 jar caramel topping, 1/8 cup brown sugar, 1/2 cup butter and one cup of marshmallows. Place the potatoes in a 8 x 8 baking dish with potatoes, caramel sauce then sprinkle with sugar and dot with butter. Bake at 325 for 30 minutes then add the marshmallows and return to the oven for 5 to 10 minutes.
No they did not. Yam originates from West Africa and the Romans had no contact with this area.
Ancient Egyptians, especially nobility, probably enjoyed such things as candied fruits and other treats of that nature. I have also heard that Marshmallows evolved from a treat made from Nile Mallow root extracts.
Candied is an adjective that describes the banana.
