Question

How is the size measured for the final blessing on the candy 'Shaarot Savta' ('Yambambam'), which is made from a small amount of sugar and expands to a large size when heated.nIs it measured as is? Or according to compression? And if so, how much to compress? The size of a balloon can be compressed to the size of a spoon.

Answer

Hello 

The general rule is that small holes are combined to form the size of a kazayit, while large and noticeable holes are not combined.

Therefore, even though it involves a small amount of sugar, one must recite the final blessing.
