Candy Collection

Thanks for coming along on Candy Challenge 2011!!!  I can't believe what a year it has been and how much sugar, corn syrup and chocolate I have gone through!  While the year is over, my candy-making adventure has only begun.  This year has really taught me that you can make anything yourself, you don't have to resort to buying it from the store.  I have several requests from you all to complete and a new candy cookbook to delve into, so look forward to new candy recipes in the new year.  Haven't tried making candy yourself?  Give it a go this year, it's totally worth it.

1b. Digital Candy Thermometer (My new favorite!)
2. Heavy pot with tall sides
3a. Parchment paper
3b. Silpats
5. Cookie sheets
