Turtles 🐢

I absolutely love making candy and this is a favorite in the Lonestar State. ⭐️

Pecan halves are the best to use if you decide to make them and underneath that thick layer of chocolate rests a bed of ooey, gooey caramel. 🤤

If you're looking to explore more about candies made in Texas, pecan caramel candies are a local favorite. The combination of chocolate, caramel, and pecans creates a mouthwatering experience that is cherished by many. These candies not only serve as a delicious dessert but also make excellent gifts for friends and family. To enhance your candy-making skills, consider using fresh ingredients and following specific techniques to achieve the perfect texture and flavor. Additionally, exploring other Texan sweet specialties could inspire you to create your own unique variations. For instance, experimenting with flavorings like vanilla or cinnamon can elevate your candy treats even further, making them memorable. Don't forget that proper storage is key to maintaining freshness, so store your candies in airtight containers. With just a little effort, you can enjoy homemade Texas candy that rivals any store-bought option!

I used to avoid making turtles until last year because I was a little intimidated to try. I know you have to cook the can of sweetened condensed milk for a long time etc. until I heard when you cook it, it turns into dulce de leche, as soon as I heard that I knew I could buy that in cans already ma

Two turtles, one large and one small, swim in a clear water enclosure with rocks and plants, at a pet store called We Love Pets, ready to be fed.

A gumball-style machine dispenses colorful capsules for feeding fish or turtles, with a sign indicating 'FEED THE FISH OR TURTLES!' for 25 cents.

A turtle with a patterned shell swims in clear water, looking towards the viewer, with the text 'Happy turtle' overlaid on the image.

Feeding the turtles at We Love Pets 🐢

We had to run to our local pet store for flea collars for our dogs & newest cat. I forgot We Love Pets has 🐢 & 🐟 that you can feed! This is such a nostalgic thing for me! My fiancé fed the turtles 🐢 while I fed the fish 🐟 #summerdiary #lemon8contest #animaladventures #petstore
