New member here, learning to make bonbons

[Aunt Esther]

Hello all, I am a new member to the forum. I found this looking for information on making bonbons. I would like to say that so far this forum has been very helpful. The are part of my first batches. I am working on improving the imperfections, but any pointers would be very helpful

Welcome to eG.

Those are beautiful. I'm not into making candy so I hope that you will venture further into the topics on eG and meet the rest of us. I think that you will like it here.

It sounds like you have chosen an ambitious project for your retirement. Your candies are absolutely gorgeous. What part of the country are you in? I hope that you will check out some other forums and share some of your recipes with us, not just for candy but some of your restaurant favorites.
