How To Make Maple Cream Candy Who would ever suspect that this delicious candy is simply pure maple syrup in a more solid form?
Here’s How: • Boil 2 cups of pure maple syrup over very low heat without stirring. • Let it reach late thread stage, 233 degrees F. on a candy thermometer. • Allow to cool to 110 degrees F. on candy thermometer, about 1 hour, without stirring. • Add 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract. • Beat until it until it is light in color and fluffy in texture; hard enough to hold its shape. • Put into forms or molds or shape into patties. Tips: • Use pure maple syrup, not imitation or maple-flavored. • Use a candy thermometer to judge heat. • This candy will dry out quickly when exposed to air. Pack in an airtight container as soon as it is cool.
