Process

The liquid center found in some cordials is made using invertase to hydrolyze sucrose in the filling, a process that can take up to two weeks. This makes it a requirement to age the cordials in storage before consuming them to ensure the filling has become liquid. Some fillings include cherry, strawberry, raspberry and blueberry.[1][2]

Because my IDE is optimized for programming - it has an integrated terminal, syntax highlighting, autocomplete, a few buttons for formatting, git integration, etc, and Word has formatting, embedding images, etc.
gollark: That's a terrible definition.
gollark: How do you even define "job"?
gollark: Well, yes, but we'd lose all existing programs, produce piles of specialized tooling, and do tons of extra work.
