tube-shaped pastillas or roll them using your hands to make pastillas balls.

milk that is liquid.

In making pastillas it is best to used locally processed milk. Nueva Ecija is regarded
as the Milk Capital of the Philippines while Bacolod City is where we can find the
largest sugarcane plantation. These products are essential in our daily life that is why
the were sold and bartered into different regions in our country. Due to high demand
of these products, they can increase the income of their regions which help their
growing industry.
