After Halloween - Candy Apple help needed.....
Comments (3)Hey DL I spent years making candy apples and this is my first year ever getting them perfect. This is the recipes I used (from Allrecipes) and they gave a pretty thin, hard crunch shell. I even heated to 315 accidently and still very good. * 15 apples * 2 cups white sugar * 1 cup light corn syrup * 1 1/2 cups water * 8 drops red food coloring Directions Lightly grease cookie sheets. Insert craft sticks into whole, stemmed apples. In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, combine sugar, corn syrup and water. Heat to 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads. Remove from heat and stir in food coloring. Holding apple by its stick, dip in syrup and remove and turn to coat evenly. Place on prepared sheets to harden. I scrape the bottom of the apple after dipping, dip into pretty sugar (the decorating kind not the fine baking stuff. As soon as they hardened and kind of cooled I would wrap up to keep out moisture and to prevent them from getting sticky. I did stir at the beginning until sugar was dissolved....See MoreWhat's your Halloween candy / treat to be?
Comments (30)Last few year we have had only 1-5 kids and we lived in a small town, but at the edge. This year in the assisted living home, they open the doors for about 2 hours and they say the get 100-200 kids. BUT it is he clients choice. If they want to give, they put a picture of a pumpkin on their door, or just sit in the hallway. If you don't want to do anything, just keep the door closed. Today, all the staff dressed up in costumes and the resident s really enjoyed it. It was fun...See MoreAnyone taking Halloween candy to the dentist?
Comments (13)I think if anyone wants to send candy to the troops they should just walk down to the nearest shops and buy all the leftover candy that is on sale and super cheap. When I was a kid, Halloween was a big deal......Our candy lasted for days on end and it was not something that we had all the time....My Mother made sure that we ate it when she wanted us to have it but the truth is, she didn't have to because we were so thrilled to have all that candy, we made it last forever. We picked through it and traded with each other and with friends... I understand the thought behind the buy it back program but I say "Leave the candy for the kids.......If they have to much..throw some of it in the freezer for later....and let everyone go buy candy for the troops.....See MoreHalloween candy?
Comments (11)Well the boys each recieved a huge bag of treats from the Firemen and another from Church. Than although there's no Halloween party at school the parents all send in treats to be passed out to bring home. So there was lots of teeth rotting yummys here. The boys ate a few pieces but candy isn't their thing now corn dogs are a different story. LOL. They mostly traded back and forth with each other, made a bag loaded in candy for Amiee and another for my grandaughter that came visiting after Halloween. The rest they dumped into a bowl and set it on the breakfast bar. They haven't touched it lately. My husband can't keep his hands off of it. I watched him walk past it quite a few times grabbing a piece as he went by. I dumped it all in a zip loc and moved it out of his sight. I ate 3 of the little bite size York patties...I made two bites out of each so I had 6 times the enjoyment. Haha. we will also be disposing some of it around Christmas....See Moreplllog
