Brugmansia × candida (syn. Datura × candida), the angel's trumpet, is a hybrid species of flowering plant in the family Solanaceae. Its parents are Brugmansia aurea and Brugmansia versicolor, with both listed as extinct in the wild.

Brugmansia × candida is native to Colombia and Ecuador, and has been introduced to tropical locations worldwide. A large shrub or small tree reaching at most 6 m (20 ft), it is typically found in the seasonally dry tropics. Its cultivars 'Angels Sunbeam', 'Creamsickle', 'Grand Marnier', and 'Knightii' have all gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit as ornamentals.
