Kentucky Mint Candy Recipe?
Brachs used to make a candy called Kentucky Mints. They were a white, chalky
mint, almost like a buttermint but not quite. The centers were a stiff green mint jelly. Some company makes similar candies ut they are fruit flavors and not mint. I want mint! I did search for a recipe but only came up with buttermints and mint drinks. Anyone? Thanks! |

Thanks! if you have butter mint recipe you can likely adapt that to be the mint you want. the filling could likely be something pretty similar to what a gummy bear is like. i've never tried to make any of those chalky mints, but i doubt they'd be that difficult. there are a lot of candy making vids on the youtube. songbird |

Julie, did you Google for that "old-time candy" website? I don't have the link anymore, but
if they don't have it, they are responsive to viewers' questions, via email. (They couldn't help with my son's desire for "Sour Bites," which he called "tiger bites," because they had a tiger's facial outline etched on one side. ;-)) N. |

Yes but it's not chocolate mints that I want. And... I too make chocolates so if I wanted those, I would make them myself. |

I know how to make all kinds of mints. The filling is the problem. It's not like a gummy candy but stiffer than that of a gum drop. |

I didn't Google it but I have been there. There is a company that makes the same sort of candy but with mixed fruit fillings. They don't make mint though.. |

I haven't found too many. And the ones I've tried are not the right texture. They also need to be rolled in sugar as they are very sticky. |
