This is a sweet that is made from the bovine colostrum milk
and it’s amazingly delicious. Getting the colostrums milk was easy when we were
kids and the milkman used to deliver milk home we used to have this sweet
often. Now I hardly see it in fact my kids do not know what I am talking and
since its sweet they would rather not try it out.
