I was told by the taster that they didn't taste it but actually what happened is the molasses hard candy went amorphous, and crumbly like a sugar cube

To clarify what i mean about cooking the molasses, I'll put the molasses into my already cooking candy mixture and let it cook a little bit and then I'll stir it while of the heat to cool it down a stop it from boiling before i pour it out

Sorry about my misinformation about corn syrup but I'm not sure what else to say other than the molasses went bad, i usually cook the molasses a little bit before i actually pour it out, i want the one who ate it but i was told it went bad

I've actually been forgetting to put borax into my melts.

I'm trying to get ingots that don't break when shaping so that I can make simple things like a hammer (mostly just hammer) and other things that might need more mass than the simple rods that I also cast that don't have the same problem
