We are big fans of the fantastically spicy ginger chews from Ginger People (although... their oddly anthropomorphic ginger mascots? Cute or creepy?) Spicy ginger is comforting and warm, nice for winter colds, and so delicious with hot tea. When making our last batch of caramels we decided to try out our new ginger extract and make ginger candies ourselves. How did they turn out? For pictures and more, read on...
There are just some things that were made to be together. Peanut butter and jelly , tomatoes and basil and best of all, caramels and bacon. There was a caramel bacon fad a year ago, but we wanted to change things up a bit... The bacon caramels that swept the internet last year had the bacon fully submerged into the caramel before cooled. We made a batch or two of this method and weren't too fond of it's mouth-feel.
