Glorias - a delicious and traditional Mexican candy! If you have a sweet tooth, you're in for a real treat.
Glorias are a type of milk fudge candy, and they are one of the most popular treats in Mexico.
They are especially popular during celebrations and festivals such as Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).
The candy is named after Gloria, a famous Mexican actress from the 1950s who was known for her sweet and kind personality.
One interesting fact about Glorias is that they are made with just a few simple ingredients - sweetened condensed milk, corn syrup, sugar, butter, and pecans.
These ingredients are combined in a saucepan and cooked until they reach the perfect consistency.
The candy is then cut into small squares and wrapped in wax paper or cellophane.
Making Glorias requires a bit of patience and attention to detail, but the end result is well worth it.
The candy has a rich, creamy texture and a sweet, nutty flavor that is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.
Plus, they make a great gift for friends and family!
To make Glorias, you'll need to gather your ingredients and have a candy thermometer on hand.
You'll also need to be prepared to stir the candy mixture constantly while it's cooking to prevent it from burning or sticking to the bottom of the saucepan.
Once the candy has cooled and been cut into small squares, you can wrap each piece in wax paper or cellophane to give them a professional look.
They make a great treat for any occasion, and they are sure to be a hit with anyone who tries them.
So, grab your ingredients and get ready to make some delicious Glorias!
