Hi all,

Getting into the candy making mode. Got the mise en place going -



This is just this weekend's start. More will come as I'm still waiting on some of the ingredients for the centers. Each year I try a different line of flavors: cocktails, coffee house, and wine have been been done in the past. Usually one or two flavors may stick around. This year will be salt. Salted caramels and salted chocolate truffles. I have got a small selections of salts: habanero, smoked, pink, red, black and some finishing salts.

Also trying some new pepper flavorings. While habanero/mango/rum is still the number one favorite the fans have been asking for more heat. Also trying a new hot pepper flavor - the Dirty Irishman.

Also have 33 more pounds of chocolate coming in. Stay tune for how it proceeds...

Jim
