Home For The Holidays: Sweet Endings

Guest: Swiss Maid Fudge

Swiss Maid Fudge first opened forty years ago in downtown Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin. Over the years the candy store has expanded to include salt water taffy, caramel apples, caramel corn, brittles, crunches and the list goes on. All of the candy is made the old European way using copper kettles and cooked over open gas fired cast iron stoves. Small batches ensure freshness and quality. Locals can peek into the action by taking a tour of the old fashioned store. Photos from the tour are also posted online.

Among dozens of options, long standing favorite continues to be Milk Chocolate Fudge. Other popular treats are Cashew Crunch loaded with fresh roasted cashews, Assorted Caramel Apples, and buttery smooth Vanilla Caramels. Seasonal items include Spiced Pumpkin Seed Brittle, Pumpkin Fudge, Cranberry Fudge, and Peppermint Bark. Sugar-free candy options include Chocolate Nut Fudge, Peanut Butter Cups and Salt Water Taffy.

How to make your cakes moist & even

Guest: Pinnacle Foods Group, LLC

The main reason cake becomes dry is that it is over-baked. So to make your cake moist and delicious, check the cake with a toothpick at the shorter end of the baking time range. If cake comes off on the toothpick, return it to the oven for the full baking time. If no crumbs come off on the toothpick, then your cake is done!

How to get great cookies

Guest: Pinnacle Foods Group, LLC

Butter is the best fat for flavor and appearance, and you should soften butter at room temperature before you use it. Remember to cool your cookie sheet completely before baking each batch of cookies. Even a minute of baking time can make a great difference to your cookies, so always check for doneness a minute or two before the stated baking time!

Easy and Cheesy

Guest: Pinnacle Foods Group, LLC

If you love cheesecake but are worried about the fat, try using light cream cheese instead of regular. For smooth batter, make sure the cream cheese and eggs are at room temperature. And if you bake your cheesecake in a water bath, also known as “bain-marie”, it produces a texture that is creamy, moist and rich – almost like custard.
