Book excerpt: What is candy? Trying to answer that question turned out to be as hard as trying to find the raspberry crème in a Whitman's box of assorted chocolates. You know what we mean. Like how when no one's looking you try to find that delicious creamy centered piece of raspberry covered in delicious chocolate. You begin by studying every piece of chocolate in that box. After careful inspection, you're certain you know the one that is raspberry crème. You take that piece out of its delicate lil' liner, bite into it and find it's just a piece of brittle coated in chocolate. Dang! Of course, you eat what's in your mouth-it's not bad but not what you were expecting-so you put the other half back into its special spot in the box and continue your search. You try other tactics liking poking your finger into the bottom of each piece of candy. Of, course, the first one you poke turns out to be jelly-filled, so you have to carefully put that one back too and continue the search. Our story is kinda like that with twists and turns and zaniness galore from candy innovators as creative as Disney, candy makers as odd as a Willy Wonka character, and candy revolutions as dramatic as the Hunger Games. This is an 80-page sassy lil' book on the history of candy with loads of sweet history, timelines, recipes, puzzles and more.
