HMGT4977 Can­dies and Bon Bons

In this elec­tive Hos­pi­tal­ity Man­age­ment course, stu­dents learn to pre­pare many styles of can­dies and bon­bons work­ing with ad­vanced con­fec­tionery tech­niques. Al­though our goal is to pro­duce can­dies, stu­dents learn how they can be ap­plied to plated dessert com­po­nents. Pack­ag­ing is an im­por­tant focus in this class since mar­ket­ing is a big sales win­ner.
