When the caramel has thickened (do a test by pouring a drop of caramel on a saucer, if the drop remains firm without slipping then it is ready), pour it into the recesses of the icing sugar and let it cool for at least 15 minutes. Turn the candies in the sugar and use a colander to remove the excess sugar. Yours are ready homemade cough and sore throat candy.

Put the candies in a food bag with a little icing sugar and place in the fridge or freezer to preserve their shape and consistency.

For this purpose, acacia honey is preferred, thyme honey or manuka honey: properties and benefits of honey

Pretzel Candies | 101 Cooking For Two by Gordon Ramsay


Super easy chocolate pretzel candies are a great sweet and salty combo. They are perfect for “take a treat” to school, an office party, or even give them as gifts. Just three ingredients and no skill will get you these delicious candies.Pretzel Candies on mat

I call this holiday cooking for the non-cook. Spread some pretzels on a cookie sheet, top with a chocolate kiss. Soften the chocolate in a low oven for a few minutes and press in an M and M and allow.

Skill level 1/10. If you can’t do this one, you need to stop reading food blogs.

My Rating

My rating system. Great 5 out of 5

5-ish. I really can’t live on them but good.

Pro Tips: Recipe Notes for Pretzel Candies

While several blogs have done variations, I’m going with Chocolate Pretzel Treats at allrecipes.com as the inspiration piece.

The Pretzels

A small pretzel is mandatory to get this right. The square pretzels are an excellent choice, but a more traditional shape will work fine since we are going to let the candies cool before moving them.

The Candies

I am using “hugs,” but regular candy kisses will work fine. Hershey Kisses are brown chocolate and Hugs are white with stripes.

Hugs are a little more interesting and add some holiday cheer. There were 78 Hugs in the package.

Then top with an M & M candy. Again regular, but I’m using the holiday colors here.

The Oven

Oven temp recommendations vary some from 175 to 300, with the most common being 200. I’m going with that. I feel higher temps will melt the outside before the inside of the hug is soft.

You are NOT trying to melt the chocolate. Just soften it. Bake for a few minutes and as soon as they kisses are shiny, remove them and press in the M&M’s.

If not soft enough, pop them back in for 30-60 seconds.  When done, they can firm up at room temperature or faster in a freezer.

Non-Stick is Needed

Use parchment paper or oven baking mats. These candies will stick to trays.
