  • Candy Making Made Easy (Because It Is)
    05_597345 ch01.qxd 7/29/05 7:08 PM Page 9 Chapter 1 Candy Making Made Easy (Because It Is) Recipes in In This Chapter This Chapter ᮣ Gearing up to make candy ᮣ Dream Dates ᮣ Identifying some great confections ᮣ Checking out special uses for your candy-making skills ne point I stress throughout this book is that candy making is pretty Oeasy. After you learn a few basics and prepare yourself and your envi- ronment according to my simple guidelines, all you have to do is follow a few procedures. I hate to say this, but if I can make candy, you can make candy. When I train new staff members in my candy shop, I observe that, at first, they’re hesitant and overly careful about handling the product, as if it were very fragile. I assure them that they will not hurt the candy by being aggres- sive. I don’t want them to be afraid of the candy, and you shouldn’t be afraid, either. Most products you make are quite tolerant, and you can stir them hard, slap them, or just generally be rough with them. Don’t be afraid to get your hands a little messy, and don’t worry about making a bit of a mess. Have fun, because you’re in charge. To make a point, when someone observes that I have a spot of chocolate on my face, I dab even more on and ask, “Where, here?” Then I touch another spot withCOPYRIGHTED a big dab and ask, “Or was it here?” MATERIAL Before I finish, I have chocolate all over my face, but the new person is relaxed, confident that I am crazy and not worried about making a mess.

  • Thermal Behavior Characterization of a Sugar-Based Model System and Commercial Confections Across the Stages of Sugar Cooking
    THERMAL BEHAVIOR CHARACTERIZATION OF A SUGAR-BASED MODEL SYSTEM AND COMMERCIAL CONFECTIONS ACROSS THE STAGES OF SUGAR COOKING BY MELISSA WANG THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Food Science and Human Nutrition with a concentration in Food Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Adviser: Professor Shelly J. Schmidt Abstract The stages of sugar cooking, although long-existing and widespread in the confection industry, are lacking in thermal behavior profile descriptions, which are crucial to confection functionality. Thermal behavior parameters, such as the glass transition temperature (Tg), are indicative of confection material structure and textural behavior. Tg plays an important role in governing the quality and shelf life of sugar-based confection, and is influenced by moisture content, formulation, and other factors. This study aimed to connect thermal behavior parameters to the stages of sugar cooking. Thus, the objective of this research was to investigate the thermal behavior of the six stages of sugar cooking, as well as representative commercial confections from each stage. A model sugar-based confectionery system was developed and representative commercial confections belonging to each stage of sugar cooking were selected. The model system consisted of a 70:30 ratio of sucrose to corn syrup and a 70:30 ratio of solids to moisture. To investigate the thermal behavior of the stages of sugar cooking, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), moisture content, and water activity analyses were conducted for the model system and representative commercial confections. The average Tg midpoint of the model system increased from thread to hard crack stage, corresponding to loss of water from increased cooking time and temperature.

  • Candy Temperature Chart Having a Good Thermometer Is Important When You’Re in the Candy-Making Business
    Candy Temperature Chart Having a good thermometer is important when you’re in the candy-making business. A perfect batch of caramel depends on reaching a desirable tem- perature before removing from the heat. The faster and more accurate your thermometer, the better the candy. Makes sense, right? The good news is, you don’t have to go out and buy a fancy candy thermometer if you’ve already got the Super-Fast, Splash-Proof Thermapen from ThermoWorks in your bag of kitchen tricks. Cold Water Test: As a sugar syrup is cooked, water boils away, the sugar concentration increases and the temperature rises. The highest temperature that the sugar syrup reaches tells you what the syrup will be like when it cools. In fact, that’s how each of the temperature stages discussed below is named. Bind agent for fruit pastes Thread A spoonful of sugar drizzled over a plate forms a fine, thin thread. This 230-235F stage makes a syrup, not a candy (106-112C) Fudge, Fondant, Creams, Penuche, Maple, etc. When a small amount of sugar syrup is dropped into very cold water 235-240F Softball and forms a ball that does not hold its shape when pressed with your (112-116C) fingers. Caramels and Divinity When a very small amount of sugar syrup is dropped into very cold 245-250F Firmball water and forms a ball that holds its shape but is still very sticky when (118-120C) pressed with your fingers. Taffy and Marshmallows When a small amount of sugar syrup is dropped into very cold water 250-265F Hardball and forms a ball that holds its shape but is pliable.

  • How to Make Fondant for Bees
    How to Make Fondant for Bees 4 Reasons to Make Bee Fondant, Including Feeding Bees in Winter September 17, 2020 <https://backyardbeekeeping.iamcountryside.com/health-pests/how-to-make-fondant-for-bees/> Reading Time: 6 minutes Fondant for bees is a little different than the fondant that you find at the bakery. The bakery fondant can have high fructose corn syrup, cornstarch, coloring, and flavorings added to it. Making fondant for bees is a lot like making candy. When starting a honey bee farming project, even a small one, itʼs super important to consider the availability of food for the bees. Now, bees are great at finding food but itʼs still wise to intentionally grow plants that attract bees to ensure that they have plenty to eat. However, even with the best planning and intention, there are times that bees might need food from the beekeeper. If you manage your hives well and are diligent to leave enough honey for the bees to make it through the winter or better yet, wait until spring to harvest any honey, you shouldnʼt have to feed your bees very often. When do Bees Need to be Fed? There are several reasons why bees might need to be fed instead of relying solely on what they stored or on foraging. 1. Winter lasts longer normal. No one can predict the future and know exactly how long winter will last or how much honey the bees will eat during the winter. This is the main reason some beekeepers prefer a spring harvest instead of a fall harvest.

  • “Let's Make Candies”
    CANDY MAKING GUIDE Winnebago County 4-H Mmmmmm… Let’s Make Candies “Candy Can Be More Than Calories” Everyone likes a tasty treat to satisfy their “sweet tooth”, and most often it will be a food containing a large proportion of sugar. Candy is the most concentrated sweet food, but it doesn’t have to provide only “empty”, non- nutritious calories. Many candies that you can make very easily contain ingredients that provide protein, calcium, and other nutrients. Candy should not be a major source of nutrients, as you would have to eat too much of it, but it can be a useful supplement if nutritious recipes are chosen. Watch for such ingredients as peanut butter, oatmeal, nuts, milk, gelatin, and fruit. CANDIES Candies are usually divided into two basic classes: crystalline and non-crystalline. We will also be using three additional classes of candy and candy treats. They are uncooked candies, cereal candies, and microwave candies. Uncooked & Semi-cooked .............................Candies that are uncooked or semi-cooked. Cereal .............................................................Candies that include cereal in the recipe. Crystalline or creamy .....................................Candies that have a distinct crystalline structure such as fondants, fudges, penuche, divinity. Non-crystalline or amorphous .......................Caramels, peanut brittle, butterscotch, hard candy, lollipops, marshmallows, gum drops. Microwave .....................................................Candies that fall in one of the above classes, but are also prepared using a microwave oven. The type of candy made is determined by the ingredients used, the degree of cooking, and the manipulation after cooking. 2 EQUIPMENT No equipment is necessary other than that usually found in the kitchen. Candy-making can become even easier by using certain special equipment, most of which can be obtained at reasonable cost.

  • A Brief Discussion of Principles of Candy Making
    ing a string in a concentrated cane sugar solution, in which case the sugar is deposited upon the string in crystals gradually increasing in size. In making candy in the home we aim to keep our candy from crystallizing (graining we sometimes call it), else aim to obtain very small crystals, crystals too small to be separately felt. Except in the case of a few simple candies made from confec- tioners' sugar, all candies are cooked. In cooking sugar we may use moist or dry heat. In order to understand thoroughly the principles involved in candy' making, it will be necessary to know the effect of these two forms of heat upon the sugar ordinarily used in candy making, or cane sugar. In order to determine the effect of dry heat upon this sugar the following experiment is rec- ommended. Brittle Candies. Take one-half cup sugar and melt over the fire in a sauce pan, stirring constantly to prevent burning. This should melt completely and be left over the fire with constant stirring until the color just changes, but the material is not burned. This can be poured over whole or crushed peanuts to form peanut brittle. Cocoanut or any other nuts may be substituted, or hot water may be added in sufficient quantities to dissolve this melted sugar and the whole kept for flavoring as caramel. It must be remembered in adding any liquid to the hot melted sugar that the temperature of the melted mass is very high and any cold liquid suddenly intro- duced will tend to harden the mass and make it quite difficult to remove.
