Krówki
The popular Polish krówka candy is made from a creamy caramel mix of milk, butter, and sugar. These simple ingredients are stirred and boiled, then poured out and cooled.
The history of these caramels dates back to the early 20th century. Feliks Pomorski learned to make them from his uncle in Żytomierz. By the 1920s, he began production of the sweets on an industrial scale in Poznań. Despite great difficulties during and after World War II, production of the candies resumed in Milanówek, near Warsaw. Even after nationalization, Pomorski never gave up – he moved all of the manufacturing to a backyard garden.
The company exists to this day.
