Trying a Sifers Valomilk Candy


Somewhere, Linda ran across a list of regional candies. Sifers Valomilk is one of these candies. She also ran across a display of the uncommon candies at a local grocery and picked one up so we could have the experience. The wrapper looks like it could have been left unchanged over the life of the treat.

Reading from their website, I found:
The "creamy flowing marshmallow center is made from fresh corn syrup, pure cane sugar, distilled water, pan dried (hand made) egg whites, pure Bourbon vanilla from Madagascar and a touch of salt. Nothing artificial. No additives. No preservatives."
It's my understanding that while these may make the candy more attractive, it also makes for a short shelf life, contributing to a pretty limited production and availability. Fortunately, we got to try one. They're a bit messy but pretty good.
