Halloween candy wash

Sugar, and all about sugar washes. Where the primary ingredient is sugar, and other things are just used as nutrients.

Halloween candy wash

Post by pistachio_nut »

I found a large bag of Mike and Ikes that isn't going to make it to the trick or treaters this year and it got me thinking. I wonder if there's any Halloween candy that would make a good wash? Lots of sugar going down the drain this year if it isn't put to a good, productive use. Is Malic Acid bad? I know citric acid is a preservative. Any thoughts on this?

How about Dum-Dums or Bit-o-Honeys?

That's hilarious. Do it!
Might make for a good bottle label.
