Book Reviews of Who Wants Candy?

Book Review: For all levels, all tastes. Fantastic.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is an absolutely wonderful book. I was a novice to making candy but do like to cook and try new things. Over the holidays, I tasted some homemade candy at a friend's party and was reminded again of my wish to pick up this sweet skill. Did a little looking around on this site and picked up this book, and am so glad I did! I started with a couple of the easier recipes and then progressed through more complicated candies. The amazing thing is that the easy ones are still quite impressive and the difficult ones are spectacular -- My favorites have been the various toffees, but the fudges are gorgeous, too. What's more, the author is able to break down the SCIENCE of candy-making, too; and once you understand some very basic principles, you can make adjustments to recipes with confidence. The grab-bag of tips -- When to stir, tools to use, etc -- are highly helpful as well. Recommended without reservations.
