...Bob’s Candies Bob loves making candy, especially varieties of caramel, including plain, chocolate dipped caramels and chocolate dipped caramels with pecans. Bob has received lots of compliments from his friends and neighbors, and several have encouraged him to start his own candy making business. After several days of research, Bob finds that the national average amount of money spent annually per person on this type of specialty candy is $75. Bob believes that the citizens in his area spend more than that per year. Knowing whether or not this is true could help Bob make a wise decision regarding his future business plans. Bob wants to use statistics to support his claim, and to help him obtain a small business loan. Bob also wants to find an estimate of the true amount of money local citizens do spend on this type of specialty candy. Bob randomly selects several people from his local phone book and asks the person that answers how much money they typically spend per year on candy like he will make. He obtains the following results (in dollars): 75, 74, 80, 68, 79, 85, 77, 82, 79, 67, 90, 72, 76, 75, 69, 85, 78, 79, 82, 66, 75, 85, 90, 76, 85, 67, 89, 82, 69, 79, 82, 80, 84, 79, 78, 81, 77, 84, 80, 76.

If you’ve never made flan before, now is the time try this recipe. I’m going to talk how to make three different kinds of flans. Flans are really important for my culture and almost all Mexicans families eat flan for dessert. I’m going to explain how to make the caramel flan, the Authentic Mexican Flan, and the crème cheese flan. The first flan is the caramel is round and it looks just like jello. The taste you get in your mouth is like creamy pudding with the taste of a caramel in it. At the caramel flan you have to use one and a half cups of sugar, two tablespoons, three eggs, two large eggs, yolks, pinch salt. You put the oven in the oven, and let it bake for fifty to sixty minutes. It is much better if the oven you has a light n a see through, that way u can see the process.

...100 5/2/2014 Lauren Shea The best Crème Caramel in the world If you could have any dessert for your lunch or dinner, what would you have? Would you have a piece of cupcake, an ice cream or a chocolate candy bar? To me, the most important reason that I chose crème caramel for my desserts because crème caramel is my favorite food and it always reminds me of my sister, who gives me food and prepare the food I love. My sister is a perfect one. She is the one who knows me best. My sister and I even have many of the same interests, which include making food. My sister knows how to take care of herself and others. She enjoys cooking so much. She always tells me: “If you love someone, don’t say it. Just prove it. Action speaks louder than word”. So, making food is the way she shows her love. Honestly, she is not the one who usually cooks food in my family, but when she does, her food is really delicious. She always knows what I like and makes me happy by making food for me, especially crème caramel. We are all known that crème caramel originated in Ancient Roman times and it was one of their first recipes to be made with eggs. At first it was not a sweet dish but it was savory one. By the time, people changed the way to make crème caramel better and fit their taste. My sister’s dish is totally different from everyone else. She makes her own recipes and her crème caramel is always good. It’s the best crème caramel in the world that I have ever eaten. ...

... As well as having texture in common, these sweet treats both come in various flavors. Some taffy and tootsie pop come in the same flavors. Some of these flavors include chocolate, cherry, caramel, and strawberry. The consumption method for eating taffy is not compatible with the method of a tootsie pop. A tootsie pop has a stick for the consumer to hold onto. Taffy must be consumed by popping the candy out of the wax paper and into the consumer’s mouth. Although they have their differences, each sweet treat will leave you wanting more. Dum-Dum suckers are a hard, sweet, flavorful brand of...

...CURRENT SITUATION ANALYSIS: Cracker Jack (CJ) is a classic American caramel-coated popcorn and peanut snack that was acquired by Frito-Lay (FL) in 1997.1,2 Sales peaked in 1998 to $100M but soon sank back to $30M per year and has remained at that level since.3 Several factors are attributed to this sales slump. FL incorporated CJ into its existing distribution model that utilizes Direct Store Delivery and packaged CJ in Mylar bags (as opposed to the classic boxes).They also shelved CJ with other Frito-Lay salty snack products such as Lays Potato Chips, despite 98% of consumers rating CJ as a sweet snack and not a salty one. 4 Although priced lower than the leading caramel corn brands, CJ still appears expensive when merchandised next to inexpensive potato chips. Consequently CJ has numerous misalignments and a comparatively low profit margin (8.2% compared to snack average of 20.5%).5,6 The low price point combined with rising commodity prices has forced FL to substantially cut the quality of the prizes found inside each box to control costs, angering long time consumers.7 CJ, having stagnant sales for the past ten years, has not received the support required for brand revitalization, instead relying on steady baseball stadium sales to survive.8 Overall CJ has become a neglected brand and is ripe for acquisition. MARKETING RECOMMENDATIONS: First, DPC will merchandise CJ with other caramel popcorns, which will permit a price increase of $0.29 (19.5%). This...

...off with the male journalist asks Bridie about conditions in the camp. Explaining how the women were weighed regularly and outlining the contents of a will she drew up at this time, Bridie mentions a caramel. Questioned further about this caramel, which she and Sheila would suck on every Sunday night, Bridie explains how it came to be consumed. At Christmas 1943, to the amazement of the women, a group of male Australian POW’s managed to get to the barbed-wire fence. Then they sang a Christmas carol and were serenaded in turn by the female prisoners. After this even which so surprised the Japanese, that they did nothing about it, Sheila and Bridie decided to have a ‘proper Christmas dinner’, which meant finishing the caramel. A soldier who had winked at Bridie remained in her thoughts and when the war ended they married. Importance of Scene 7 Scene 7 serves to reinforce for the audience the wartime bonds of friendship between the two women, a reoccurring theme within the play, and their shared caramel provides a powerful image in our minds of the deprivation they endured, but also of the tenacity, hope and friendship they clung to. Distinctively Visual Elements of the Scene • Caramel is symbolic because it symbolizes hope and survival of the girls. This shows that the caramel is the only luxury that they have in the camp. • The male choir is symbolic of strength and self-determination because it shows how determined the men were, that they could see the women by going to...
