Phetchaburi
Sweets are a famous souvenir from this province. The reputation
of these sweets stems from the use of Tanot sugar as some of
their ingredients. Examples are Mo-kaeng, a sweet made from
flour, sugar and eggs; A-lua and Sampanni, a sweet made from
flour and sugar; Thong Yip, Thong Yot and Foi Thong, sweets made
from baked egg-yolk; Ba-bin, a sweet made from cocount, sugar
and flour; Khanom Chan, a layered sweet made from flour and
sugar; and Chao Tan Chueam (palm seed in thick syrup). Visitors
are able to buy these sweets as souvenirs from sweet shops in
town (near Khao Wang) and many well-known shops on both sides of
Phetkasem road.
