Not S&M or B&D, just: 300 Best Homemade Candy Recipes

Here's a forbidden book for you!

No, it's not "50 Shades of Grey" or any of the alarmingly hundreds of dreadful copy-cat eBooks from other talentless amateur practitioners of "mommy porn." It's a book that dabbles, dribbles and drizzles through a world of exotic, bad-for-you excess: Brittles, Caramels, Chocolate, Fudge and Truffles. And more.

Author Jane Shamrock throws caution to the wind, and passion into the stove, as she offers her photo-filled guide to how to fill yourself with sugary excess. At a time when people are warning that most anything can cause diabetes, and when even healthy people are (needlessly) buying gluten-free cookies, and when Coke and Pepsi are discovering less people interested in their sugary drinks and even less buying the dangerous sugar-free alternatives...here's Jane explaining ALL the secrets to re-connecting with lost childhood treats and discovering new ones.

Oh, oh, oh: Old-Fashioned Hard Candies, Caramels, Clusters, Chocolate-Coated Candies, Fondants, Farmhouse Favorites Candied and Spiced Nuts, Popcorn Candies, Short and Sweet Simple Barks, Speedy Candy Rolls and more! This is not for the person who is simply content with a Milky Way bar, but wants to impress at a party, amaze at a child's birthday, or just conjure up something unique and personalized.

The book might even be of interest to those who simply wonder about how one creates a filled-chocolate, or whether you need mallow to make a real authentic marshmallow. Sweet!
