Method #1

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups of all purpose flour
  • 2 cups powdered milk
  • 1 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 2 cups sugar


Materials:

  • Japanese paper or cellophane
  • Polvoron Moulder

Procedure:

  1. On a pan, toast flour in a moderate heat for about 15 minutes, or until light brown, stir constantly to avoid burning.
  2. Remove the pan and transfer the mixture on a big bowl.
  3. Add the powdered milk, toss for another 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add sugar and melted butter. Mix well.
  5. Fill the mould with the mixture, press it hard by using a spoon, then release it, if it is still too loose, add more butter or olive oil. Make sure that you could pick up the polvoron without it crumbling straight away.
  6. Place the polvoron in a airtight container, chill in the fridge until firm.
  7. Carefully wrap the polvoron individually in japanese paper or cellophane.

Keep refrigerated until you want to eat them. You can store them on the fridge for about a week, or you can freeze them.

  3. Add sugar and powdered milk
  4. Mix butter thoroughly in skillet
  5. Compact mixture in polvoron molder/press
  6. Set molded candies on a cookie tray and refrigerate for a couple of hours so that the butter can harden them
  7. Cut tissue paper in 5″ x 5″ squares
  8. Wrap when the polvoron is hard enough so that it does not break

Method #3

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 c. all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 c. sugar

  • 1/2 lb. butter, melted

      @ellen c. pangilinan,

      1. Shelf life of polvoron, pastillas, and yema lasts a few months, with proper storage.
      2. Compute the total costs and add 20-50% as profit.
      3. A thousand pesos is enough as start-up (mostly on main ingredients).
      4. Transparent packaging is readily available in supermarkets.

      good luck in your business!
