L'Abeille Diligente questions
How is hard candy made?
Hard candy is nearly all sugar. A sugar syrup is boiled to the hard crack stage, 300 to 310°F (about 150°C), then cooled until it sets stiff and brittle. Glucose syrup in the mix keeps the sugar from forming crystals, so the candy turns out smooth and glassy instead of grainy. L'Abeille Diligente adds French honey to that base.
What does honey bring to L'Abeille Diligente candies?
Flavor. The name means the diligent bee in French, and the brand builds its candies around French honey, cooked in a traditional cauldron for its hard candies. Plain sugar tastes only sweet, while honey brings its own floral flavor, so a honey candy tastes different from one made with sugar alone.
