This one is for all you candy lovers out there Its very rare to find a partner with a shared vision. And in this case, to find a partner who also wants to launch a business with the crazy idea to make the Snickers bar to end all Snickers bars, and to create artisanal flavors that challenges ones idea of candycandy that makes people think. But, these two pastry chefs were lucky enough to have found each other and thank goodness for that. Meet Liz Gutman and Jen King, the founders of Liddabit Sweets based in New York City. They launched their business in early 2009 on a whim, and now their unique, seasonal candy concepts are selling out online and in community markets all over the city. In their eyes, the secret to success is making candy by handfor the hard work put into it makes all the difference in the world. Thanks for watching food. curated.

In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Sweet and Crunchy Sesame Seed Brittle. This is hard candy, packed with sesame seeds. We bought the sesame seeds on our recent field trip to Happy Meadow Natural Foods in Berea, Kentucky. I only made a half-recipe of the Sesame Seed Brittle in this video, but I am giving the full recipe below: Ingredients (for the full recipe): 1 ¼ cups sesame seeds 2 cups sugar 2 tablespoons water 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Note: You will need a large skillet for this recipe. If you are using a cast iron or stainless steel skillet, you can use a metal spoon. If you are using a nonstick skillet, you may use a wooden spoon. Be sure your cooking utensils can withstand high heat. Cook 1 ¼ cups sesame seeds in your skillet over medium heat, stirring often for about 8 to 10 minutes, or until the seeds are golden brown. Remove the seeds from the skillet and place them on a plate while you prepare your candy mixture. Cook 2 cups sugar and 2 tablespoons water in the just-emptied skillet over low heat, stirring constantly, about 10 minutes, or until sugar is melted. Quickly stir in toasted sesame seeds and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Pour onto a well-greased metal pan or baking sheet. Quickly spread to desired thickness (about 1/8 to 1/4 inch), using a metal spatula. Cool completely–about 20 minutes. Break into pieces and store in an airtight container. Enjoy! –Betty

In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make delicious and seasonal Bourbon Balls, made from the recipe of Maker’s Mark.

(If you are interested in the tour, please view my video, Bettys Trip to Maker’s Mark Distillery with Rick.) I wanted to share this recipe with you, because it is a perfect candy to have on hand as the holiday season approaches. This candy freezes well, so you can make it early on, and have it ready for guests at a moments notice! I also like them when I have a taste for just a little something sweet. I actually like them better frozen! Ingredients: 1 pound box confectioner’s sugar 1 stick melted butter ½ cup Makers Mark Bourbon whisky 1 cup chopped pecans (Also needed: chocolate and parafin for coating) Soak nuts in Bourbon overnight. Combine all ingredients (except coating materials) and refrigerate until firm. Roll in small balls and dip in Bakers semi-sweet chocolate melted with paraffin. (I used a 12 oz. bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips, mixed with 1 oz. paraffin in a double boiler. I then coated the Bourbon balls with the chocolate mixture, and placed them on waxed paper to set up. I placed a single half-pecan piece on the top of each piece of candy, and pressed it lightly while the coating was still hot. I let the finished Bourbon balls cool. You can use a refrigerator or freezer to speed up the process. Then I placed them in a candy dish for …
