My SOD (Seasonal Obsessive Disorder - subtype candy making) is kicking in - I am starting preparation for my yearly holiday gifts. Strictly amateur but lots of fun. Nothing chocolate yet - that starts next week. So far it is pretty monotone but that will change.
I'm making lollipops this year - raspberry; saffron, vanilla and ginger with brandy; and salted chocolate caramel.
Sesame candy with almonds and orange and lemon zest, and cashew butter crunch
Peanut brittle and candied orange peel.
You can see the peel-less oranges lurking in the background. Hopefully we will eat them before they dry out.
