I would not use if for candy..Amazon has several candy specific thermometers for 8-10 bucks. Good Luck!

I suppose you could if you were just spot checking the candy but this thermometer is meant for quick reads of meats. I would probably look for a thermometer that could clip to the side of my pot for a constant temperature reading

It is a thermometer with a 4" steel probe , so it should work on anything not not enough to melt steel, but not left inside an oven.

Yes. On the temp card that came with the thermometer the proper temps are on the bottom

we use it for candles and homemade soap ... im sure if your patient it will do some awesome chocolate roses - just make sure they are completely solid before you try and get them out ...they would make a good rose fore cakes im sure

According to he description, yes it can. I have mainly used it for candy, but as long as you don't go over the temps on scale, I see no problem.

Yes. Just use it like you would sugar. But it is a little sweeter for the same amount.

Not sure. I used them for powdered candy. I would say no though. It leaked from them .

Yes, it should work fine for that purpose. I used it to heat up oils to make lip balm for a library program.

I have only used it for candy, and it worked well, I am sure it would work for soap as it will almost peel away from the candy/soap inside. Hope this helps

Yes....fine for things like yogurt and sauce-type condiments. Not sure I would use them for oil-based salad dressings though.

I personally would not use it for that. For cooking I use only the coconut oil that comes in a glass jar.

Yes, you can use it to make candy, but you cannot leave it in the pot as the candy is cooking. Insert it and hold it for a few seconds and then remove it.

I think you could pick up p-nut butter, syrup, canned goods etc. I would be careful with pickles if quarts,glass liquid etc. It might work,but just use caution.

Not sure about syrup (unless it is thin), I use them to filter used motor oil for reuse in my chainsaw.They are made of paper with the plastic micron mesh at the bottom.

I don't really know, I never tried. I am not sure what the maximum temperature usage for this item is compared to the required boiling point for sugar to turn into hard candy. I'm sorry I couldn't be of more assistance. Please be aware that even though the item is reasonably priced it will take a few weeks to arrive because the seller is not in this country.

I'm not sure what kind you mean. You can make sauces. It has an attachment for that. I made some pomegranate juice that I turned into a syrup for desserts.

I think you could but it does not have any holes for screws. Remember with 6 full syrup bottle it will be quite heavy.

I use it for my BBQ rub...I guess you would have to create a thick simple syrup and then add the maple powder to taste. I have no clue excep to say that a tablespoon or two should make a Qt of flavored syrup?

It's great for donuts and any type of deep frying. Just make sure you have a thermometer to clip to the side such as a candy thermometer to keep the oil at the right temp.
