Directions
Trinidad Toolum,This is a traditional Trinidadian sweet that used to be popular with children. It’s still available from select stores but it’s now more of a specialty item. Haven’t made this in years but now that I have a child it’s time to dust off this recipe.,Turned out great! I am excited to try out more of your other recipes. I would also like to know if you know how to make trinidad red pepper mango. I LOVE that and I’ve been looking everywhere to learn how to make it since we don’t get it up here in the states. Any help would be much appreciated :)…Thanks!,ABSOLUTELY GREAT! I served a double batch of these as something different at a finger food buffet, & they were one of the first to be wiped out! I usually provide copies of the recipes use [had made 15 copies of this], & they were also gone! This is a real winner!
