The Sweet Melissa Patisserie has a new book out that has many recipes made with honey. I'll check out that book from Amazon...Baking with Agave Syrup.<BR/><BR/>We love shelties too. They are great companions.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!<BR/><BR/>Sheltie Girl @ Gluten A Go GoSheltie Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00017566413309758029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6538430039171130432.post-38832120912827566502008-03-20T17:51:00.000-04:002008-03-20T17:51:00.000-04:00Thanks Sheltie Girl!

I have baked with agave syrup, and have gotten good results, basically by swapping it in in recipes that call for honey or light corn syrup. I'm not much of a candy maker -- really more of an occasional dabbler as far as candy-making is concerned. <BR/><BR/>In terms of books -- I saw one on Amazon called Baking with Agave Nectar. Not sure how many candy recipes are in there, if any -- but I would imagine it has some info about the science of cooking with agave, which may help you in your candy-making endeavors.<BR/><BR/>Hope this helps!

Also, thanks for the beagle puppy video...that was so precious.<BR/><BR/>I noticed a comment you made on Chow about making candy with agave syrup. Is it the same as making candy with honey or is there a difference. I've done a lot of baking agave, but my success rate with agave in candy is hit or miss. If you have any tips you'd like to pass on I'd really appreciate it.<BR/><BR/>Also, is there a candy making or confection book that discusses making candy with syrups such as maple, agave, etc.?<BR/><BR/>Thanks in advance!<BR/><BR/>Sheltie Girl @ Gluten A Go GoSheltie Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00017566413309758029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6538430039171130432.post-79148801575033876532008-03-20T09:50:00.000-04:002008-03-20T09:50:00.000-04:00Thanks Leah!
