The reply is negative, hazelnuts and candlenuts are not the same.
Hazelnut and candlenut are two clearly distinct types of nuts. Almonds and cashews are both part of the same nut family, however, their flavors and textures differ from one another. Hazelnuts are known for their subtle notes, while candlenuts have a strong, overpowering flavor.
