Random Candy #8: Nicaraguan Caramels

Common in Honduras and Nicaragua, these were chewy, dark, rich caramels that stuck to your teeth and almost tasted like coffee. I loved them. They were a little bitter tasting, and extremely sticky.

Sadly I don’t have a link to purchase these… They seem to be made mostly locally.

Coming soon:  Paris!  I have been shooting through Paris trying to get to Syria before my visa expires, but I did have time to visit an amazing Turkish Delight factory in Afyon!  Tonight I am taking an overnight bus to Gaziantep, the home of baklava.   Hopefully I will get caught up one day, because I have lots of good stories…

I love baklava too. Pay attention to how they make it and get the recipe so you make it for our next family get together. Tell us more stories!
Love,
Mom
