Behold, my truffles.
Photo is a white plate with decorative flowers along the edge. In the middle of the plate is 4 small dark chocolate truffles with chocolate curls attached to them.
Class was fun. I was stiff and exhausted by the time I got home at 10:20PM. Standing for 4.5 hours is a lot for my body. My #fitbit showed 202 zone minutes for the day. A typical day is about 20-30.
Struggling with sticky divinity? Humidity is usually to blame. Make it on a cool, dry day (below 50% humidity) for perfectly set candy. Fix your divinity woes here.

Took a swing at homemade fruit de pâtes. Flavors are raspberry, lime, and mulled wine. I cut them a bit ugly, but they look like candy at least!
Going to make pineapple, strawberry, and passionfruit tomorrow.
Cut the caramels I made last night into squares and wrapped! Apple cider caramels, super good, delightfully apple-y and seasonal specifically to autumn in taste and vibes. ^^ North American version of cider, the juices from pressed apples, cooked way down, as an ingredient in this. ^^

This is surprisingly satisfying to watch - making cranberry balls (candy).
After my most recent candy-making experience, I decided to treat myself for my birthday/December-holiday by getting a proper thermometer for such jobs. It's also fine for other culinary uses like roasting meats, which I needed as my elderly cheapo analog instant-read thermometer was beginning to give out. I may give this toy a whirl as soon as this weekend - I had intended to make another batch of toffee for holiday gifts before stirring the first batch blew out my shoulder. So I guess friends will be getting belated gifts! 😅
I made some peanut brittle today too, it's good. Used silicone baking mats in half sheet pans. Made 2 lbs or 900 grams, half of that is the raw spanish peanuts.
