can you use it with candy other than gumballs like m&amp;m's or skittles?

I think so. The gummballs that came with the dispenser where the size of m&m peanuts

You can use any small wrapped candy. I purchased the small toys that were recommended. My Grandchildren love this. Works great!Enjoy

Yes you can. Just make sure you do not over fill. I use mine to make anything "bready".

It didn't work for me at all with fudge or carmels. I got different readings, wildly different, depending on where I aimed it. It will not work at all as a candy thermometer, which is what I wanted it for.

yes you can. I would not advice eating it, only because it will turn into a mouthful of flavorless gelatine.hope it is a hit, send me pictures!

There is a spiral slide the candy needs to go down. I think jelly beans or other candid that is not really spherical would get caught.

I would not suggest that you use baking emulsions to make hard candy. It makes a wonderful addition to any baked good. It gives a strong, robust flavor and because they are not alcohol based, the flavor won't bake out like with traditional extracts. Bakery emulsions can be used in any baked goods like cookies, cakes, sweet breads, and pastries, frostings, glazes, fondant, and fillings.

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.

Sorry You aren't able to buy candy with these coins. These coins are used for Good Luck and tied to the Red Card money card as gifts on New Years or Birthdays.

I used mine as candy fillers for baby shower favors. I placed jolly ranhcers, skittles, and mints in mine and all three fit with no problems. I hope this helps!

Personally, I loved all the flavors of each type of candy from the kit, probably the tastiest one of all. But anyhow, to answer your original question, it is very fun to make. There's different steps to each part, with easy picture directions on the back! I definitely recommend it

Never tried that. We use the cake mix for other things like banana nut bread, small cupcakes. Sorry cannot help you.

I haven't tried it. But it works we'll with peanut m&m;'s. Occasionally an odd shaped one will get stuck but can be knocked loose. so I would say as long a you use normal sized fireballs you should be fine. I doubt the large ones will fit.

Yes you can use it on Candy or Maple Syrup. Basically any liquid or solid that you need to get the temperature of. The Temp Range is -40 to +450. I know Maple Syrup making is quite the detailed process so hopefully someone with experience on that end can weigh in here. We have had plenty of people use the thermometer for candy making and it works perfectly

I dont know for sure but I think that would be pushing it. Its great with M&Ms, skittles, spree, jelly beans, assorted nuts and smaller gum balls, tho.

There is a smaller wheel for small gumballs. You could use it for jelly beans. You just maybe would get a few out at a time.

yes you can. the bottom of the gumball machine has a screwing hole for a stand to be mounted. its bigger than a size of a quarter. hope this helps.
