Recipe for cooking checking your candy thermometer

Desserts to Go with Coffee and Tea :: Candies and Confections


Checking Your Candy Thermometer

Most of these candies are made of sugar syrups and require the use of a candy thermometer. Before making the candy, check your candy thermometer for accuracy by placing it in water and bringing the water to a boil. The thermometer should register 212 degrees F (100 degrees C). If the reading is higher or lower, take the difference into account when testing the temperature of a syrup.
