Take the ferrocarril straight up into the clouds of Caracas’ urban national park to try local sweets such as melcocha, local hot chocolate or strawberries and cream. Melcocha is a molasses-based candy with a hint of lemon. At this small street stand you can try the famous ‘Dulces Artesanales Galipaneros’ brand.
