I just glazed some candy apples today with a very nice Conde orange shellac.



kovachian -> RE: luthiers candy!!! (Jun. 4 2009 18:28:20)

You just now found that out? Shellac is just glorified tree sap after all, therefore an organic substance! Here in the US it's approved by the FDA as a food coating. In some supermarkets, it's not unheard of for some fruits and veggies to be lightly sprayed with shellac. Same goes for wooden salad bowls and the like.

Haha thats cool just looked it up on wiki. the candy they have pictured there is skittles. nice.

not tree sap though im afraid, it's a secretion made by the female lac bug when making cocoons.

More like beetle dung than maple syrup...



kovachian -> RE: luthiers candy!!! (Jun. 5 2009 14:40:01)

No it's tree sap initially, in that it's consumed and then secreted by the lac beetle; hence my using the term 'glorified tree sap'. I could've said 'beetle jizz' but that wouldn't have been any more descriptive!

Hi Kovachian - thanks for the clarification - love the term beetle jizz, absolute classic!

Now then - only have to covince the wife that my secretions/excretions are in fact Lamb Bhoona[:D]
