Candy factory

Baños has a community candy factory specializing in guava paste candy. The students were able to see how the candy is produced, taste samples of both guava and taffy, and see how sugarcane juice is made. We sampled a glass sweetened with mandarin orange. In the pictures you see them boiling down the guavas, spreading it out in a pan, then after it cools cutting it in the small squares, pulling taffy, and using a trapiche to make the sugarcane juice.
