A SWEET candy called “coklat nise”, a legendary delicacy renowned in Kelantan since ancient times, remains popular although production has dwindled as not many are interested in the trade.

Confectionery entrepreneur Roziah Hussein, 59, said making “coklat nise” was a challenging task, as her small business was based out of her home kitchen. She is assisted by her fifth child, Ros Amira Romli.
