Candy Making Supplies

You may ask yourself,"What exactly do I need for candy making?" Of course, the answer to that question depends upon what type of chocolate candy you plan to make.
For most candy making, you will need a good saucepan for heating, a double boiler for melting, and a candy thermometer to be sure your temperatures are accurate.
A great place for kitchen supplies is
You may also need wooden spoons, a whisk, a marble slab, baking sheets, mini muffin tins, dipping forks, a timer, a pastry brush, measuring cups and spoons, or a sifter.
Maybe you will be looking for a pastry bag, pastry blender, pastry scraper, or various shaped candy cutters and chocolate molds.
Don't panic! You certainly don't need everything on this list of candy making supplies. You probably have many of these items already. These are just suggestions of items that are handy to have for different types of candy making.
For some homemade chocolate candy recipes you may want to use little paper candy cups, skewers, lollipop sticks, or cellophane bags. Or how about for decoration some sprinkles, jimmies, or candy confetti?
Most important of all you need chocolate! You could use plain white, milk, or dark chocolate. Or, you could go all out and melt some colored wafers for more elaborate designs. They do have really nice gourmet chocolate for candy making at Chocolate Source.
Many of these candy making supplies can be found at your local grocers, but for the widest variety take a look at what some of these wonderful candy making supply distributors have available. The prices are great, too.
