The tempering machine makes all the difference in the world.
And yeah, the Ghost Chili sea salt caramels are crazy good. They have the perfect amount of heat - not too hot, just a nice warmth - much like a good Scotch on the palate. She worked for a long time perfecting how to infuse it into the caramel. Some of the early batches were eye steamers.
We're drinking Single barrel Evan Williams (and wine - Toscana). It's just okay. The 1792 spoiled us.

She really does. Been doing it for a long time and has a real knack for flavors. We're having a big Christmas gathering and everyone pretty much expects her candy. I'll post up pics of the finished product.
The downside is the surgical gloves kinda freak me out. I keep expecting to see a jar of lube.
