Meetha Nivaala
Originally a Domian confection, these sweet jelly-like morsels are a popular treat throughout southern Udynea where they are largely served in bite-sized cubes alongside cups of kofe.
Soft but slightly chewy in texture, the common flavours of rosewater or vanilla often leave the confection with a far more fragrant appeal than any distinctive taste beyond the sweetness of the sugar dust they're rolled in.
Once made with honey as the sweet point, sugar mills allowed for a finer grinding of local cane and became a preferred substitute in kofe houses.
Manufacturing process
The honey or finely ground sugar, lemon juice and water are heated together until the sugar dissolves, then arrowroot powder and cold water are added into the heated mixture and whisked into a syrup. The desired flavour is then added.
