Did not get this recipe made for Halloween. Used cinnamon flavoring. Next time I will use more the 1/4 tsp extra. I also want to try rum extract.

To those that think diabetics can't have candy: I've had diabetes all my life. We can eat everything other people eat. it's all about serving size and swapping one thing for another. All sugars are carbs and are identical to all other carbs. You can swap a sweet item for a slice of bread. Or for a serving of potatoes or rice. Carbs are carbs. A small piece of this is good for the soul and worth foregoing a slice of bread! Love this recipe. Made it for friends and all were delighted.

My grandchildren loved this and I made it just before our party. Couldn't be easier. How about with sprinkles, or red for Christmas, green for St. Patrick!

Pattiess What is candy coating?
What is candy coating?
Candy coating can be found in two places in your grocery store. You can find candy disc's in a multitude of flavors in the bulk section of your grocery store. Typically in both bulk and prepackaged form.
Or you can find something called Almond bark (I'm not sure why it's called Almond, I don't believe there's almonds in it) in your stores baking isle. It typically comes in milk & white.

Gave this 5 stars as to not cause rating to drop. . . but, how in heavens can this be diabetic friendly when there is sooooo much sugar in it? My husband would NEVER put anything in his mouth containing this amount of sugar. I think someone needs a dietician's lesson in what all these sweets will do to a diabetic.

What is the candy coating? Is that white chocolate "bark" that is used in a lot of Christmas candies?

I was reading the reviews and one of them said "how can this possibly be diabetic friendly when it is all sugar?"People with diabetes can eat what they want. Sugar yes. The deal is the SERVING SIZE when counting the carbs. They cannot have very much, but pending on their meal plans a small piece can be included as a treat now and again.

To the person who asked about what to use in place of orange dye, I wonder if a tad of orange jello would work? Maybe red jello for Christmas time?

Good recipe, but I totally agree with HardenAllenGirl that this is NOT DIABETIC FRIENDLY

How can this possibly be diabetic friendly when the entire recipe is sugar?

I tried the recipe as is first and it was OK but seemed to be missing something so I tried again. Seond time I exchanged the chips for Dark chocolate, 70% and the candy coating for white chocolate. I added roasted walnuts, chopped, in half of the recipe and chopped roasted almonds in the other half. Just a slightly different taste and texture but still good. Depends on your tastes. Gonna try again this time with the Mango.

haven't made it yet, but would love to see nutritional info since it is "diabetic friendly" which is wonderful! Quick note to "natermom" ... to make natural orange food coloring at home, use juiced carrots,tumeric powder, or warm-water soaked/bloomed saffron.
