Ready to get a sugar rush? Join the Beats as they break down 5 original, Persian-inspired candies and treats and how to make them!
Unique twist on Halloween Candy and Treats
- Sohan | Persian Brittle (made in a modern way with Saltine crackers, would work in mini version with oyster crackers too)
- Chocolate-covered Pretzel rods garnished with pistachios and zereshk (also try with dried, candied orange peel)
- Toot | Marzipan (try shaping as candy corn or spooky finger nails)
- Ajeel in cute halloween treat baggies
- Dates dipped in Chocolate (be sure to take the pit out of the dates)
- Saffron Caramel Candy (Persian tootsie roll!)
This week’s “Ask the Beats” comes from Sahar from Walnut Creek
We are gathering in my home before and after trick-or-treating on Halloween. What is a good recipe I can serve to everyone?
