Turn out perfect candies, jelly, and caramelized sugar with this stove-top thermometer by CDN. Made of durable laboratory glass, the 8-inch-long thermometer precisely measures temperature with a non-mercuric column in both Fahrenheit and Celsius, in a range from 75 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (25 to 200 degrees Celsius). Excellent also at monitoring hot oil for deep frying doughnuts, onion rings, and other foods, the thermometer can be attached firmly to the side of any size fry vat or candy pan with its sliding stainless-steel clip. Highlighted sections of the thermometer show the best temperatures for different candy stages, specifically thread, soft ball, firm ball, hard ball, soft crack, hard crack, and caramel, along with deep frying. Dishwasher-proof, the thermometer comes with a protective sheath and is covered by a five-year warranty against defects.
