A most memorable visit to your corn farm.
My second visit for 2014 to Cameron Highlands. The first bite into the white sweet corn was juicy and sweet, can’t believe it was so sweet and crunchy. A sweet corn lover since my young days as a little girl from my native hometown of Kampar, my parents would always buy them back for me. It was only yellow-colored sweet corn in those days……
Your white sweet corn is 100% Cameron grown, and even tastier than the bi-colored corn – the white/yellow ones, and it was really worth every single bite. The great part is about eating it raw like eating apples and oranges. What an awesome enjoyment right in the heart of Cameron Highlands!
Tried it boiled and steamed as well, and every bite was more delicious than the first…
Can’t get enough of it. !!!!!. My Filipino maid and even my doggies love the white sweet corn kernels… ( Masarap Mais ), she says in Tagalog……
Thank you, Vivian, for the best-tasting sweet corn in all my visits to Cameron Highlands. And even though, I missed the chance of picking them myself, the visit will forever remain one of the best ones in my lifetime. The 120 sticks will never be enough … I am coming back for more. 100 days from seed to mature corn, you will always be the No. 1 on my list.
Your farm grew Japanese sweet potatoes, cassava which took 2 years to mature, and also the tender baby corns really made my visit so unforgettable. I love pure honey too.
Thanks for the great farm experience ……

Sweet corn is a beloved staple in many kitchens, known for its crisp texture and naturally sweet flavor. To enjoy it at its best, it's important to know how to choose and store it properly. Here are some tips to ensure your sweet corn stays fresh and delicious. Choosing the Perfect Sweet Corn Look for Green Husks: When picking sweet corn, start by checking the husks. They should be green color and tightly wrapped around the cob. If you notice any brown or dried-out husks, it's a sign that the corn isn't fresh. Feel for Firm Kernels: Give the corn a gentle squeeze through the husk. The kernels should feel firm and plump. If they’re mushy or shriveled, put that cob back – it’s past its prime. Check the Silk: The silk (those thread-like strands coming out of the top) should be slightly sticky to the touch and look fresh. Depending on the variety of sweet corn, the color can range from light to dark, so focus more on its condition rather than the specific color. Check for Insects: Look for any small holes or damaged areas on the husk. These could be signs of insect infestation. A clean, undamaged husk is what you’re aiming for. Storing Sweet Corn Refrigerate Immediately: Corn starts to lose its sweetness as soon as it’s picked, so refrigerate it as soon as possible to preserve its flavor. According to the University of Illinois Extension, corn can lose up to 50% of its sugar within 24 hours if not refrigerated. Keep the Husks On: Store the corn with the husks still on. They act as a natural protective barrier and help retain moisture. Reader testimonial: “I’ve always kept the husks on my sweet corn before storing it, and it’s remained fresh and flavorful for several days.” Use a Plastic Bag: Place the ears of corn in a plastic bag to keep them from drying out. Make sure the bag is closed tightly. Freeze for Long-Term Storage: If you can't use the corn within a few days, remove the…
