Starburst-Style Chews

Season 2014 Episode 26 | 3m 33s

Bright in flavor, with a yielding, chewy softness and the mouth-coating heft that can only come from added fat, Starburst is a uniquely satisfying confection. In commercial factories, powerful machines perform the pulling required to align sugar crystals and incorporate air into candy. At home, it's your arms that do all the work. The more you pull, the softer and fluffier your candy becomes.
