Homemade sweets

Cookinero 19 Jan 2023

If your loved ones once try homemade sweets, then you will simply be doomed to cook them regularly. Which is not at all surprising: it is rather difficult to find such a tasty delicacy in the store. Our candy assortment consists of two types of sweets. The first ones are chocolate, stuffed with candied fruit and fudge. The second ones are made from dates with nuts and icing. And both are equally great! Homemade sweets can not only be served at the table, but also presented as a gift, pre-packed in a beautiful box.
