In the Liddabit Sweets Candy Cookbook, the quirky, creative minds behind Brooklyn's best craft confectionery teach once-intimidated home cooks how to make their favourite candies from scratch. There are more than 75 delectable treats to tempt every sweet tooth, including chocolate truffles, mint meltaways, lollipops, peanut butter cups, marshmallows, nougats, Turkish delight, Bacon crunch, better-than-brand-name candy bars, and five kinds of luscious caramels: sea salt, beer-and-pretzel, brown sugar-coffee, salted chocolate, and fig-and-ricotta.
From tempering temperamental chocolate to working with hot sugar, from whipping nougat to layering candy bars, the Liddabit ladies guide us through it all with wit, sass, and down-to-earth advice (including helpful "Liz Says/Jen Says" tips throughout). Gorgeous four-colour photographs show each candy in all its joy-inducing glory and illustrate once-tricky techniques and troubleshooting tips step by step.
