Anyone here ever make their own chocolates?

specifically, I would LOVE to make my own version of Purdy's sweet georgia browns, i.e. the best chocolate to ever exist in the world.



it's a pecan, caramel, and chocolate on top. IDEAS?

Looks wonderful! The only candy I make is fudge at Christmastime.

I've only ever made my own truffles, quite successfully. Those look delicious, and probably not too hard to make!

I LOVE fudge!
I seriously need to learn to make a bunch of candies because I'm so lazy to go buy them.

They are, quite literally, the best thing that has ever been made. Like, SO good, words cannot describe. Purdy's, buy them by the barrel and erase any success youi've made while logging
