I think the spelling should be 'guisada' because the confection is of Portuguese origin. At least this is how it was spelled in my childhood in Kingston in the mid 1940s. My father's family were Sephardic Jews originally from Portugal and I recall my grandmother, Abbygail Lindo (nee Cohen) making guisadas in the kitchen of her house on Deanery Road. I am 72 years old but in memory I can still taste Granny's guisadas. Desmond Lindo
