Actually I should be in Paris in less than a month and hope to drop by Genin's to score some caramels. I assume that shipment from the States to Canada should not present a problem, though who knows what Canada Customs and Excise will do. You might suggest on a PM how to handle that issue.

Are you sure these came from Genin? I know he only sells by the Kilo, no halves

Kerry, just wondering if you had success with your mango-passionfruit caramels?

They turned out very nicely. The second recipe was most like the Genin caramels, but the first - which was more caramelly was really nice too.

PM me your regular e-mail and I'll send the recipes via mastercook. I'll try to get them up in recipeG over the next few days.

AGM shared some with meQQ :wub:

Pim or her site this past week has some recipes. Has anyone tried the caramels?

I've just read this thread and saw that started in 2007 and was never 'finished' with a final recipe. If the OP' did develop a final recipe, would they mind sharing?

m(_ _)m

I'm very interested in trying these out.

cheers,
