Making Maple Cream Pics.

WE got several orders for maple cream from YTers around the country. Yesterday the wifey and I boiled down 2 gal. of syrup in 1/2 gal batches, yielding 34 half pints, plus a mixing spoon full. The difference in the yeild is from the additional water that is boiled out of the syrup, plus what sticks to the pans and pot. The syrup has to be heated to 230F to make cream, and then cooled to room temp and stired to crystalize it. We use a SS mixing bowl setting in a tray of ice to cool it, and found that the side burner on our built in barbacue, worked well to get the syrup up to temp. The usual little labled plastic maple cream containers haven't got here, so we went to plan B and used 1/2 pt. canning jars.

Loren ACG,

Interesting...never heard of Maple Cream before.

I bet it would be good drizzled on an open-faced peanut butter sandwich (we sometimes do that with honey).
 
Jay,
We got about the same amount of snow today, but temp in single didgits and windchill in the negative. I never went outside today. Just to the shop to stoke the boiler. It's been a toasty 70 plus in here all day.

Over here in NH we have about eight, it just stopped.
 
GAAK! My wife loves the stuff, but I can't handle it - WAY too sweet! Pretty much anything Maple is too sweet for me. My wife gets Grade B Maple syrup, and I get cheap-o Maple "flavored". I like the flavor, but hate that "loupy" feeling of a sugar high!

My wife would kill to get some, though!
