Candy Making

Today marks the first day we try making hard candy using corn starch and homemade molds. If the process turns out well, we will post pictures later! :)

This is a fun little exercise in what temperatures create what types of candy!

Call for Articles for Candy the Magazine (Print Edition).

Submission Guidelines

The focus of Candy The Magazine is to engage a wide range of audiences with candy knowledge (facts, information, etc.), art, photography, comics, reviews, and articles related to candy. Though the audience may include extreme candy enthusiasts, we are trying to capture the fun and excitement that anyone finds when walking through a candy store. While topics can be serious, we are treading on the light side of the news, thus extremely critical reviews or topics will likely not be published.

If you have questions regarding a topic that may or may not fit with the magazine, please feel free to contact us at [email protected].

Article Guidelines

Articles of any length can be submitted, however we prefer articles that range from 500 - 2,000 words. Any file type that is easy to open will be accepted. All candy referenced in the article should be listed at the beginning of the piece along with the title of the article, word count, your name, current street address, and email address. All submissions will be reviewed and, if accepted, we are granted first publishing rights. All other rights revert to the writer after publication. We will read and edit the articles, and if accepted, you will be contacted with the edited version prior to publication.

Please make sure your work is original and not a reproduction of other work. We have a no tolerance rule for copyright infringement.

Unfortunately, at this time, we cannot offer financial compensation for published work. If the article is accepted, you will receive a print of the magazine. This may change in the future, and if your work is accepted, future articles may receive compensation. Please submit articles to [email protected].

Candy is loved by adults and kids alike. Most candy in the U.S. is consumed during Halloween, with Easter in the second place. And, according to surveys, most most children prefer chocolate compared to hard candy.
