If there was every a time to try your hand at making your own candy, Halloween is it. While you’re handing out store-bought candy, you can be sitting inside eating your own homemade candy corn and caramel, or putting out bowls of your own lollipops or gumdrops at your Halloween party.
This week, I’m writing about 8 homemade candy recipes over on Home Made Simple. Check it out!

Well, that sent me off in some interesting directions. Homemade peeps- who knew? And candy corn. Just bought some of that to give out tonight for Halloween. Even though I still have a secret fondness for it I looked at the ingredients and yeah, not going to eat any. Even with corn syrup and food coloring the homemade version would still be a little healthier.
