2nd Annual Candy Making Jubilee

Yesterday we cooked and we slaved away in the kitchen. It was most magnificent! We dipped chocolates this year for our candy making tradition. We had a great time.
Chocolates dipped:
*buttercream
* fudge
*fudge mint
*pretzel caramels
*salted caramels
*Lemon cake bites
*Raspberry cake bites

After we finished that we topped it off with some toffee, and fudge.
The fun began at noon, we closed up the factory at 10:45. It is a great tradition that we have started that I just LOVE. So do the recipients...

Love you ladies like I love a good day in the kitchen!

The process of dipping is really messy. You pour the melted chocolate onto the counter.

The mess

Don't think that the kids were neglected. They enjoyed each other's company and had A LOT of candy.
