Festival Staples

Every destination has its festival staples. In Hawaii, it's portuguese malasadas, Filipino lumpia, and t-shirt sales.

Almost every Saint-inspired festival in Sicily have their own staples. Fresh coconut. Freshly made candy. And candle sellers.





Nut candy is made with carmelized sugar and pressed on a marble slab.



What a lovely way to showcase coconut snacks! Maybe Hawaii could adopt this Sicilian presentation.
