Use a high-quality maple syrup for the best flavor. Grade A dark color robust taste is recommended. Be patient during the cooling process. Do not stir the syrup while it's cooling, as this can disrupt crystal formation. Stirring the cooled syrup is key to achieving the creamy texture. Don't be afraid to put some muscle into it! Experiment with different additions, such as pecans, almonds, dried cranberries, or a sprinkle of sea salt. For a smoother candy, you can use a stand mixer with the paddle attachment to stir the cooled syrup.
