Add the flavor yourself.

The moment when the color and fragrance of the candy gradually changes is fascinating, almost like magic!

Finish your candy by sprinkling gold flakes on top.

Create a beautiful contrast by mixing two different colors. The result is even more rewarding because you made the candy yourself!
