National Hard Candy DayI want candy! - December 19 is National Hard Candy Day!
As if you needed another excuse to indulge in candy this holiday season, forget stuffing your stocking and start chomping on a brightly colored rainbow of hard candy.
This candy with a crunch is made by boiling syrup until it reaches 300 degrees, also known as the brittle "hard crack" stage. Once it hits said temperature, the confectionary genius rips the pan off the stove, whips in some flavoring and then pours it out to set. http://eatocracy.cnn.com/2011/12/19/breakfast-buffet-national-hard-candy-day/
