How to Make Hard Candy
Christmas Hard Candy Kit
LorAnn hard candy flavor oils has created the most amazing and mouth watering flavors.
I've tried multitudes of them and they always please. This is a great product delivering on the anticipation of old fashioned hard tack.
Hard Tack is an expression of days gone by. It's what my elders called hard candy.
They would powder it in powdered sugar, so it wouldn't stick together, and seal it up in a screw top jar for the holidays.
This is a Christmas holiday tradition my family loves.
The instructions are included with the candy flavor oil. Just follow the easy instructions included for the best hard Christmas candy ever.
Candy Thermometer
I love this thermometer for it's storage and carrying sleeve, the temperature range and the fact the stem is stored in an antibacterial pen of sorts.
The secret to making any great homemade candy is cooking it to the correct temperature. You must have a good thermometer to do this. Get the temperature right and you'll have the perfect holiday treat.

Debbie, Great idea, what a great way to get quality diabetic chocolates.
I never tried these, but my husband's family would make the dietetic chocolate covered pretzels for their dad.
sandyspider, I love divinity too but find it hard to make. You will have to teach me how.
My favorite is making fudge and caramel. I do love divinity as well. These candy modes and supplies look real good.
