Question from Sandy
Hi, I made your english toffee with brown rice syrup and was ecstatic! I eat no refined sugar and miss the candy. Used honey in all my recipes through the years and then agave but of course they would not harden. Will brown rice syrup work at all for something like pralines? I am ready to experiment!
Debra’s Answer
Yes, don’t you think my English Toffee is the best? Even better than the toffee made with white sugar?
You can use brown rice syrup, agave, and unrefined cane sugar (Rapadura and Sucanat) to make hard candy. All will crack as refined sugar does. Maple syrup and honey with also crack.
