In honor of the season, I'm experimenting with mellocreme.  (I'm not a big candy corn person, but I love those little pumpkins.)  I'm starting with Alton Brown's candy corn recipe with different coloring and flavoring - for the first batch, mapleine and cinnamon.  So far, it's very tasty, and the texture is delightfully smooth, but it doesn't

I'd walk a million miles for candy corn. I'll have to try making it someday.

The recipe's available online, so you won't have to track down a Good Eats episode transcription. I've had good luck with it, although you might need to experiment with different boiling times/temperatures to get the texture you want. (My family prefers firmer, chewy candy, so I got better results when I slightly over-boiled the syrup compared to what the recipe says.)

Cool, thanks for the tip.
