Hard Candy “Basics”
From beginner to confident candy maker.
This is not just a course.
It’s your first step into the craft of real candy making.
Hard Candy “Basics” is designed to take you from a complete beginner to a starting candy maker who truly understands and makes hard candy.
In your own kitchen, using accessible tools and small, in manageable batches. All at your own pace.
You start with curiosity, you finish with knowledge and skills (And hopefully: your very first handmade candies.)
This course will get you:
From confused about ingredients, to understanding how sugar really works.
From insecurity of heat and temperature, to confidence in safety and control.
From random kitchen experiments, to structured candy making.
From watching candy videos, to creating your very own candies and swirl lollipops.

Hard Candy “Advanced”
From “Candy Maker Apprentice” to “Image Candy Creator”.
You’ve moved past the basics of hard candy making.
You understand the behaviour of sugar, temperature chemistry, and candy structure.
Now it’s time to let your candy speak.
Hard Candy “Advanced” is designed to take you from a starting candy maker to someone who can design, build, and execute image candy with intention and precision.
This course is about thinking, planning, and translating ideas into candy.
It gives you the tools, structure, and guidance to:

Learn to construct “fruit image candy”, step by step. From simple shapes to more complex, detailed images.
Approach candy making as a designed logical process, not a lucky outcome.
How to create dozens of different designs, each building on the previous one
This is where candy making becomes sculptural. Where pulling, shaping and assembling turn into deliberate design choices.

From following recipes, to building structures.
From making candy, to designing candy.
From repeating techniques, to creating variations and new forms

- This is not about speed.
- This is not about mass production.

Where candy communicates identity, meaning, and message.

From creating individual designs, to designing complex compositions.
From mastering techniques, to orchestrating systems.
From image candy, to signature candy.
