Hello All. I keep trying to make slab jellies to cut and enrobe. Pectin has always been the problem for me. Nothing worked from making it myself (from apples), to using commercial, off-the-shelf pectin. The jelly was always too soft to slab and cut. I did fond a confectioners pectin that worked (from Burke Candies) but I have to buy it in 10 pound quantities. I only use 3 ozs per batch and with a shelf life of 1 year, I throw out most of the pectin. Any suggestions on a firmer pectin or ordering confectioners pectin in 1 pound lots? Thanks, John

Chef Rubber carries various sizes of Pate de Fruit pectin. Also, in Grewelings At Home book, he has a recipe calling for grocery store pectin. I have had PDF pectin for more than 5 years, and it is still working fine.

Thanks Ruth and Paul. Much appreciated. I did try Grewelings recipe but didn't have any success with it. I'll try Chef Rubber's pectin. Paul, you mentioned that Chef Rubber's is Yellow Pectin. I have a recipe that calls for "yellow pectin". The citrus pectin that you referred to, is that considered "yellow pectin"? Thanks again, John

The headline says it all: United Cacao: the sad tale of when things really go wrong for Aim investors .
Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
