Pastry Chef Claire Saffitz Tries to Replicate the Ropy Chewiness in a Healthier Gourmet Version of Twizzlers
In her noble mission to convert commercial sweets into healthier versions, Senior Food Editor and pastry chef Claire Saffitz of the Bon Api(C)tit series Gourmet Makes tried her hand at making an organic version of Twizzlers, her mother's favorite candy. After four days, many false starts and a "MacGyvered" candy extruder made with a hot glue gun, Saffitz came as close as she possibly could to replicate the ropy chewiness of the original.
