EN: coconut candy
The ultimate Filipino sweet tooth-killer. It's shredded coconut swimming in caramelized sugar, so sweet it'll make your fillings vibrate. Comes in two forms: the soft, gooey kind you eat with a spoon, and the hard, flat disc that could double as a weapon. The perfect pasalubong from a provincial trip.
A popular delicacy and pasalubong (souvenir) in many Philippine provinces.
