THC Infused Sponge Toffee June 6, 2015 – Posted in: Stoner Education – Tags: Candies, Cannabis Extracts, Cooking, Marijuana Food, Medicated Toffee
We had the opportunity to help whip up a batch of medicated candies the other day when a friend stopped by. It was a super simple recipe to follow, with superb results! This candy will dose around 40mg of active ingredient per portion – enough to have a seasoned toker buzzing.
Portion size – 48 pieces
Ingredients
- 2-1/2 cups (625 mL) granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup (150 mL) white corn syrup
- 1/3 cup (75 mL) water
- 4 tsp (18 mL) baking soda
- 2 tsp (10 mL) vanilla
- 2 grams of reclaim or decarboxylated Marijuana extract
Preparation
In 12-cup (3 L) saucepan, stir together sugar, corn syrup and water over medium heat just until sugar dissolves.
Bring to boil; cook, without stirring but brushing down side of pan occasionally with pastry brush dipped in cold water, until candy thermometer reaches hard-crack stage of 300°F (149°C), or when 1 tsp (5 mL) hot syrup dropped into cold water forms hard brittle threads, about 10 minutes.
Add your reclaim, or decarboxylated extract to the pan while whisking until the resinous oils have completely melted into the mixture.
Remove from heat. Whisk in vanilla. Standing back and averting face, whisk in baking soda. (Caramel will bubble and sputter and increase in volume.)
Quickly pour into greased foil-lined 13- x 9-inch (3.5 L) metal cake pan. Let cool in pan on rack without disturbing, about 2 hours. Break into 1-1/2-inch (4 cm) pieces. (Make-ahead: Store layered between waxed paper in airtight container for up to 1 month.)

Does adding already decarbed oil to a 300 degree sugar mixture ruin potency?

It might affect the potency of the extract, but we cannot comment with any certainty. We chose this stage in the recipe to recommend mixing at this point to ensure an even distribution throughout the toffee before it starts to rise.
Suggestions, Corrections, and Submissions are welcome.
