Candy

Homemade candy recipes are way easier to make than you think and taste infinitely better than store-bought. Make sparkly kohakutou crystal gummy candy for a viral-worthy treat, fill an Easter basket with homemade peanut butter eggs, surprise the kids with chocolate bombs, or master a batch of real gummy bears. Every recipe walks through the food-science details you need to nail every batch.

Hi, I'm Liz! I'm a cake artist and recipe developer, and I won Netflix's Is It Cake? Holiday 2 with a hyperrealistic Santa. I write foolproof recipes that explain why things work, not just how.

I also teach full-length cake tutorials, including sculpted cakes, at Sugar Geek University.
