How does the temperature at which the beating of a crystalline candy is initiated influence the quality of the final product?
Sugar molecules move rapidly in a hot solution, but slow down as the temperature drops. Small crystals are less likely to aggregate in hot solution, but the crystals that do form grow large. The goal for crystalline candies is to quickly cool the product to slow molecular movement and then stir to form small crystals due to aggregation of the molecules. This lends to the formation of numerous small crystals that provide a smoother consistency.
