Grows well in Southern California. Nuts taste just like coconut but a lot smaller. I have a friend who is really into growing them. To extract edible part.... use a hammer and cloth.

Hi Nullzero,
They do grow very well in a subtropical climate!

BTW did you get the recipe of the Licuri toffee?

Hi Nullzero,

''eyeballed the ingredients'' the recipe did not give amounts!

1kg of licuri kernals (processed finely or pounded with a mortal and pestal), mix the processed kernals with a bit of water.
put the mixture in a cheese cloth, press the liquid out! Pour the liquid in a pot, add sugar and milk. mix continously until obtaining
a thick caramel! butter a baking tin, pour it and let it to cool down completly!!!! Sirve in cubes!

See part 1 07:57 to get an idea on how it's made!!!
