DESCRIPTION

This ginger candy is cut in cubes for easy eating, each bite, large or small, full of ginger flavor. The pieces are covered with sugar to keep the candy fresh while adding a gentle crunch to the ginger experience. Ginger has long been used for spiritual and physical health and protection against evil spirits, in addition to an aphrodisiac and remedy for upset stomach, nausea, and congestion. 

Selected by Susan for its value in early history through today. Photo with ginger and bananas from Susan's research in the Caribbean on the culture and farming of botanicals used in candy today.
