                                                          That depends on the candy you want. A pretty simple recipe is caramels.  Take a cup of sugar and water, dissolve sugar in water and bring to a boil, stir constantly to soft ball stage.  Add a dash of heavy cream and am eighth cup of butter if you like soft caramels. Spoon and let dry on parchment.
