How To Make Amazing Honey Taffy - (Only Honey)

Today we show how to make beautiful honey candy with just one ingredient! This is a great project to do with your kids - my kids were sleeping when I made it but I will have to do it again with them. The honey provides a wonderful and unique flavor.

Recipe:

1 pound honey (about 1 1/2 cups)

Preparation

1. Line a baking sheet or pan with parchment paper and lightly coat with butter, or just butter the pan.

2. Place honey in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, uncovered, until honey begins to boil (about 8 minutes). Continue cooking until a candy thermometer registers 270-280°, about 10 minutes. Pour mixture onto pan. Cool about 15-20 minutes.

3. Coat your hands with butter. With your hands, roll up the honey in the pan to form a ball. Stretch honey and fold it in half. Continue pulling and folding honey for about 5 minutes or until the color changes from amber to a golden tan. (At this point you may chill for 10 min. I did not.)
4. Roll and stretch honey into long logs, dividing if it grows to long to handle. Cut into sections with scissors and wrap with wax paper.

Enjoy!

Oh my! My husband is a beekeeper, we have lots of honey and I’m on my way to the kitchen. A batch of these in a cute little basket would make a SWEET little gift. Thank you so much for sharing!

[loganisonline]

Screw individually wrapping them. I'm just gonna make long strings of it and eat it like licorice lolol

[jeremychan]

I just made it using a microwave, in a cup. Poured it out like you showed and did the pulling thing. I'm amazed that it worked

[mads]

Well I originally looked up "why is beeswax in candy" but this is much better. We just got gifted and extra jar of local raw honey. It's a precious commodity we seldom use for our tea and now I'm going to make candy with the gifted jar and give some peices back!

I used to make honey taffy with my grandmother as a child. If you add a couple of pinches of baking soda to your taffy it would have been honeycomb candy, or the inside of a butterfinger candy bar;

Mixing with crushed peanuts is amazing too. Yummm

[raymonroe]

This is awesome thanks for sharing. Edit. Made a small batch of the salted and non salted. They turned out perfect. I can have candy around my house anytime now. 🥰

[Goz]

Your like the Bob Ross of honey candy making.

[teodoravujic]

This is basically healthy candy cuz there is no added sugar and honey is really good for you. great video!❤️

[janeheichel]

I've made taffy but now I'm gonna try this so simple and I love simple 🍬

[NurseOrysia]

*then cut it and wrap it*
PpPffF!
Imma just eat the long strip
Honey is life, a while back, I made a huge glob of this stuff. I sprinkled some salt on the top, and before I, "cooked it" I also added some butter to the mix of honey. It was so chewy, and melted in your mouth, and the little bits of salt really brang it all together. You should really try this recipe! (The difference about how I made mine though, is that I did it in the microwave because I'm lazy)

I just watched this video and tried it and my I flipping did it I’m so proud of me thank you so much for this video ❤️❤️🥺🥺🥺

I remember how delicious the taffy was. Pulling it was great exercise for the hands and arms. I think Buckwheat honey taffy would be amazing (ha, ha), just add some cocoa, maybe.

[TheBonnieberry]

just adored this video...it reminds me of wonderful simpler times with my grandma...

[TheGrassfedHomestead]

That is really neat! We don't eat candy on our homestead but this is certainly an option for us. Thanks Art!

[jennifern]

My grandfather made black walnut caramels every Christmas. I had no idea one could make taffy from honey (or apple butter in a crock pot). Thanks for the great recipes. I always look forward to learning something new and seeing what's going on with your family. Thanks for all of your hard work and creative content.

[ChezGra]

Amazing!!! I will have to try it!!!! I burned once as a kid with hot caramel and I am always afraid to do it. Kids, if you are watching try it with adult

[YankeeLivn]

Nice job, I can remember my grandmother making that, thanks for sharing

[janaa]

I.AM.AMAZED! Thank you! I'll make this today!

[bizarrefruit]

Thanks for the informative video, I'm a beekeeper and have more honey and wax than I can shake a stick at so this'll help me thin down the stock. I'm making candles at the moment but this will definitely be my next project.

Cheers
