Brittles, Barks, & Bonbons Kindle Edition

See all formats and editions
A book of recipes “amazingly simple to execute, yet impressive in their results . . . goes beyond the customary chocolate treats and sugary confections” (HuffPost).

There are few things more tempting than a dish of fancy candies. But here’s a little secret—it’s actually quite easy to make these sugary confections at home! Brittles, Barks & Bonbons offers a candy recipe for every occasion and is packed with helpful tips on ingredients and equipment. For elegant gift-giving, there are Chai-Spiced Truffles and Vanilla Sea-Salt Caramels. For movie night with the family, Rocky Road Bark is deliciously addictive. And classic Buttery Almond Toffee is a festive treat for the holidays and perfect for giving. For the ultimate in simple indulgence, there’s nothing sweeter than Brittles, Barks & Bonbons.

“Those intimidated by candy making won’t be able to resist simple recipes such as old-fashioned peanut brittle and rocky road bark. There’s also plenty for fans of more exotic treats, such as chai-spiced truffles.” —Diablo Magazine

“A book that’s captivated my sweet tooth since it came out . . . Ferreira’s recipes are so simple and quick.” —seattlepi.com

Used a few recipes from the book so far and they are clear and concise. Make sure you have a candy thermometer before attempting most of the recipes. Very good for a person just starting with candy making.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for gift giving

This book has recipes from melting chocolate and making bars to more timely recipes, but even the simple ones were great for Christmas gift giving and easy for the novice to prepare. I wrapped the peppermint bark in celophane decorated bags from the dollar store and got rave reviews. Also made the chocolate marshmallow pecan barks and they were incredible. Next, I want to make chocolate covered pretzels. The hardest part is not eating too much!

I just bought this book because I saw it at the local grocery store, and I love it! So many recipes, and it's written in such a way that all of them are easy to follow. Beginners and seasoned candy makers will appreciate the clear directions and beautiful photos, and your loved ones will appreciate your prolific sweet treats. Highly recommended.
