The finer the powder, the more fragrant it is, something that could not be achieved with a stone mill in the pastBean powder is then mixed with sugar and vegetable oil. The use of vegetable oil instead of animal fat extends the shelf-life of the product (6 - 9 months instead of 3 months) since vegetable oil rarely seeps through the cake crustAfter mixing, the ingredients are molded and packaged into finished products. Most steps are done in automatic lines, helping to increase productivity and hygiene, and save labor“This job gives me a stable income and a clean working environment.
