  Candy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Candy (From the Dutch word : Kandij) is often used as a synonym for the more general term confectionery in North America, whereas the word has become archaic in most parts of the United Kingdom and survives today almost exclusively in the term "candy floss".
Candies are prepared by dissolving sugar in water or milk to form a syrup, and boiling it until it starts to caramelize.
The eventual texture of candy depends on the temperature to which the sugar solution is boiled, since the presence of a solute in a liquid tends to elevate the boiling point of the liquid.

The hard candy coatings are made from layers of sugar syrup or chocolate sealed with a glaze.
Here candy can range from the soft textures of caramels and fudges, where crystallization is minimized, to hard candies where crystallization results in a desired grainy or crystalline structure.
Most candy recipes require that the sides of the pot be washed down early in the cooking process, either with a wet pastry brush or by putting the lid on the pan for about three minutes to remove any sugar crystals clinging to the container walls.

Gilson says his candy is made with a higher percentage of sugar, which is more expensive than corn syrup, to achieve the necessary crunch and glistening shine that is a sign of good-quality hard candy.
Washburn Candy, which began as an offshoot of a bakery in 1856, is the oldest privately owned candy company in the United States.

 Boston.com / A&E / Movies / 'Hard Candy' leaves Sundance bitterly divided
Based on a script by Brian Nelson, "Hard Candy" begins as a carefree drama about a 32-year-old fashion photographer named Geoff (Patrick Wilson) and a 14-year-old girl named Hayley (Ellen Page).
But "Hard Candy" subsequently takes a left turn into an altogether different movie -- one that owes as much to horror and suspense as to social-message melodrama -- and it is that movie that divided audiences.
Most remarkable is the way "Hard Candy" pushes different buttons for men and women in the audience.
