A thermometer is an essential part of any kitchen, and this Taylor 5978N 8" candy / deep fry thermometer is no exception! Featuring a traditional design with an 8" glass tube, this thermometer can be easily attached to whatever pan you're cooking in to keep your hands free while you monitor temperatures of liquid candy or frying oil. This is essential when using an outdoor fryer and helps to minimize the risk of splatter burns from hot oil. The pan clip is adjustable allowing you to accommodate a variety of pans with this thermometer. This thermometer's clear glass display is easy to read with black gradient markings for precise temperature readouts from 100 to 400 degrees Fahrenheit, or 50-200 degrees Celsius. The protective storage sleeve has convenient cooking temperatures printed on it for quick reference.
When you are making candy, keeping the hot sugary mixture at the right temperature is essential in order for the end product to turn out properly. Plus, frying oil needs to be hot enough that food doesn't get soggy but you don't want it to get too hot, either, or food will burn. By using a frying/candy thermometer, you can easily keep an eye on your candy or oil temperatures to make sure your food comes out just the way your customers like it!

I loved it, it worked really well. I used it to get a candy coating to hard crack and it worked perfectly. The numbers were clear to read and the sleeve conveniently had the temperature for each stage. It is a great product.

I love this Taylor 5978N 8" Candy / Deep Fry Thermometer because it reminds me of my Grandma, who used this style of a thermometer, and it brings back memories of her and all the fun I had making candy, icings and yogurt with her in the kitchen. It comes with a protected plastic covering for storing away to prevent breakage. Also, on the sleeve is cheat notes on what certain candies temperature should be instead of having to look it up every time.
