This the season…
Trays are fulled with centers ready to be dipped.
I rented a commercial candy kitchen.
No more hand tempering for me.
Chocolate tempered.
This is the cutest little enrobing attachment.
My solo chocolate dipping has turned into a chocolate party.
Money cannot the great friends I have that gave up a day of their crazy, busy lives to help me.
I love them.
This is my 35th year of candy making and chocolate dipping.
Enjoy the chocolates my friends because it might be your last.
I’m seriously considering retirement.

As always I love each and every post that you make. I check multiple times a week just to ensure I don't miss anything. I live in New Brunswick, Canada and Oh, how I would love to be a helper in your kitchen. I look forward to further posts on candy making. I am gearing up to try my hand at it. Thank you so much for all of your tips, recipes and all the photos. MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Oh Janet, I drool over this post every year! Your past tips have really made me a better candy maker, too! How fun that you rented a commercial kitchen! You may want to think twice about "retiring"!
Happy Holidays!
Janet Barton says
Thank you, Candace. I think I just need to tone done the amount I dip and just give to family not the entire neighborhood.

How do you make your melting chocolate? It looks amazing! I can almost smell it through the computer!
Janet Barton says
I use Couverture chocolate. Nothing to make, just melt, temper, dip. Well it's not that simple. Tempering is a pain and can be difficult. I'm still learning the science of chocolate.

You are truly a remarkable woman!
Janet Barton says
Why thank you. I'm thinking right now I'm not a very smart woman. I made way too many and now I have to dip them. Have a great Christmas.
