Do you like candy? Toffee? Caramel? Almost every does including the authors, Gretchen & Al Beatty. Many years ago, six-year-old Gretchen's first introduction to making candy was when she attended a professional candy making class with her mother and aunt. Soon her whole extended family became candy makers including an aunt and uncle who opened a full-time candy shop in Anchorage, Alaska called Alyeska Candy Kitchen. The author's series of candy making e-books are a reflection of her talent as a writer; subsequent years of observation, practice, and innovation; and Al's writing, photography and editing skills. Over the years, Gretchen learned the key to candy making success was understanding and practicing basic techniques required to reach the desired chemical reaction while avoiding common pitfalls. The authors agree that the last sentence makes the process sound a lot more difficult than it actually is. Once you understand a particular method or process, you can apply it to as many varieties of candy as you wish. The first recipe in the book is a classic example. The authors often use a little jalapeño to add a touch-of-heat as described in Chapter 3. It’s just one of the many creative variations they bring to you in the book. Don’t be put-off by the concept; it really is warm-and-sweet and wonderfully tasty!
