Yemas

Here is another classic Filipino candy. They are called Yemas: vanilla custard balls dipped in dark caramel. Rich, smooth, and creamy filling is juxtaposed against the slightly bittersweet crunch of hard caramel. 


To make Yemas, we use only whole milk, cane sugar, egg yolks, and vanilla. It's amazing how simple ingredients can yield an extraordinary product. They are definitely worth a try. The Sweet Coconut Bakery version is almost ready for the world, so watch out for them!
