My mom makes it very often at home and we take a small piece once in 2 days. The taste of ginger combined with the taste of the sugar will impart a special taste to the sweet. We used to have this when we have any digestion problem. Now a days people had forgot this after the advent of Digene syrups:)
Beware...You are not supposed to have too much of this candy too..
Make and store this. It is very handy for all your digestion problems...
