I would interested in the hard candy recipes aswell if you are willing to share.
Peppermint Patricks
104 g corn syrup
75 g canna coconut oil
454 g powdered sugar
4 g (1 tsp) lorann super strength peppermint flavor oil
5 g (1 tsp) water
Food coloring if desired
Dark chocolate melting/dipping chocolate
Combine all except chocolate in stand mixer and mix until well combined. I use a little cookie scoop to make even sized balls and place on wax paper on a cookie sheet and into the fridge to firm up. Melt the dipping chocolate (or temper some chocolate if you’re game), and dip each ball to coat. Place back on wax paper to harden.
Fruit Chews or Caramels
120 g heavy cream
60 g cannabutter or cannaoil
60 g light corn syrup
200 g sugar (for fruit chews, use all granulated; for caramels, use half or all brown sugar)
Pinch of salt
Flavorings:
For coffee caramels:
1/2-1 tsp vanilla extract
1-2 Tbsp espresso powder, optional, dissolved in 1 tsp water
OR
Chocolate Caramels
1-2 Tbsp cocoa powder
OR
Fruit Chews
4 g (1 tsp) Lorann super strong flavor oil
Citric acid (1/8 to 1/2 tsp) OR
Tart and Sour Flavor enhancer (1-3 tsp)
Line a loaf pan with aluminum foil (I used a 8-inch loaf pan) or silicone molds and spray with nonstick spray.
In a small dish combine your flavorings and set aside. In a sauce pan, combine remaining ingredients, giving a careful stir to combine. Heat on medium to medium high heat and bring to full boil (all sugar is dissolved and mixture is boiling throughout entire mixture, not just at edges of pan). Place lid on pot for 1 minute to eliminate sugar crystals that may have formed on sides of pan. Remove lid and attach candy thermometer. Cook without stirring until mixture reaches 255-260 (255 favorite). Remove from heat, remove thermometer and add flavorings and stir in well. Pour into loaf pan or molds, tap down to get out air bubbles and let sit for 10 mins. Sprinkle sea salt lightly on top for coffee caramels. Let set for 2-3 hours or overnight. Unmold and cut into 32 squares (for loaf). Wrap in squares of wax paper if desired and store in airtight container in refrigerator.
