Home made sugar gourd

Introduction:

"My son recently fell in love with eating sugar gourd. I bought it several times outside, but I always feel uneasy. It's said that the sugar gourd sold outside added washing powder when boiling syrup. I don't know whether it's true or false. It's better to try it on your own, no matter how the effect is, at least it's hygienic and safe. "
