Categories     Chocolate

Number Of Ingredients 8

White (peppermint) lifesavers. (Be careful, I bought breathsavers at

Drost white chocolate wafers...come 16 in pack which is a long
cylander, found in candy aisle at grocery store, it's gourmet chocolate. I
usually buy 2 packs.
Sugar
Jelly beans: Go to a card store and buy blue and pink jelly beans ( I say this b/c it is
waay easier than separating them out).

Steps:

  • melt sugar in a saucepan...add a lil bit of water as needed....you want it to become a clear glue like substance. Need to stir constantly. Go to a card store and buy blue and pink jelly beans ( I say this b/c it is waay easier than separating them out). Get white (peppermint) lifesavers. (Be careful, I bought breathsavers at first by accident and they don't have a hole!) I usually buy one five pack. Get Drost white chocolate wafers...come 16 in pack which is a long cylander, found in candy aisle at grocery store, it's gourmet chocolate. I usually buy 2 packs. Dip the life saver in the carmelized sugar and press firmly into white choc wafer. Hold it like that (upside down) for 30 seconds until it drys a bit, then rest upside down while you do the rest. Dip jelly beans into sugar and press firmly into top side of wafer, holding for 30 secs. When done, place on lifesaver side down so it tilts to the side (note: this is why it's key to wait till the jelly bean dries so it doesn't slide off!)

MOLLIE'S BASIC PANCAKE AND WAFFLE MIX



Mollie's Basic Pancake and Waffle Mix image

From Mollie Katzen's "Sunlight Cafe", this is a FABULOUS mix to throw together and have on hand. It beats out those store mixes by miles! The mix just fills a quart jar and will keep for a long itme in the refrigerator and forever in the freezer. This mix works for both pancakes and waffles, the only difference being the amount of liquid and fat you'll add when you prepare the batter. I'll put the recipes for pancakes and waffles in separate recipe entries.

BABY PACIFIER SHOWER FAVORS



Baby Pacifier Shower Favors image

Originally featured on "The Baby Story", this party favor has come in handy over the years when I used to cater! They can be used in so many ways, too! As favors and decorations on tables and plates, on top of cakes and cupcakes, necklace nametags, and even for playing the "Can't Say the Word" shower game where every guest is given an item, and they are instructed at the beginning of the shower that they can't say a certain word. Each time a guest says that word, that person must surrender their item to the person that caught them. The person with the most items at the end of the shower wins!

Number Of Ingredients 4

2-13 oz. - bags of white individually wrapped lifesavers candies (wintergreen, peppermint, your choice)
2 dozen - jelly belly jelly beans , about 1/2 cup, colors will vary, and depending on whether you know the sex of the baby or not, possibilities are endless!
6 oz. - tube white cake icing , not the gel,that doesn't dry completely, with a thin attachment for application
24 lengths - of thin curling ribbon , can coordinate with your jellybean colors if you'd like,length to your liking, long enough to fit around (approx. 24") or longer for necklaces

Steps:

  • Unwrap all the Lifesavers. Take one Lifesaver and apply a thin layer of frosting around the inner hole. Grab a jellybean and place one of the short, ROUND ends in it, so the length of the jellybean is coming out of the hole. Flip the Lifesaver over. On the other side, take the frosting and make a slightly thicker (yet still on the thin side) layer of frosting around the inner hole/center, and place another Lifesaver perpendicular attaching edge of 2nd Lifesaver to center of 1st Lifesaver with jellybean attached to it. Place on flat surface and allow to dry. After drying for 3-4 hours, thread curling ribbon through the hole of the 2nd Lifesaver and tie in a knot. So cute!! :D (Photos by Dr. JenLeddy)

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will directly impact the taste of your candies. Use real fruit juice, pure vanilla extract, and high-quality chocolate.
  • Follow the recipe carefully: Pacifier candies can be tricky to make, so it's important to follow the recipe carefully. Don't skip any steps or substitute ingredients unless you know what you're doing.
  • Use a candy thermometer: A candy thermometer is essential for making pacifier candies. It will help you to ensure that the sugar syrup reaches the correct temperature.
  • Be patient: Making pacifier candies takes time and patience. Don't rush the process or you'll end up with hard, brittle candies.
  • Store your candies properly: Pacifier candies should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. They will last for up to two weeks.

Pacifier candies are a delicious and nostalgic treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a little time and patience, you can easily make them at home. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give pacifier candies a try. You won't be disappointed!
