Store Properly: Store the turtle candies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or in the refrigerator for 2-3 weeks.
Use High-Quality Chocolate: Using good quality chocolate makes a big difference in the flavor. You can also substitute dark chocolate for a more intense flavor.
Avoid Overcooking the Caramel: Keep a close eye on the temperature of the caramel. If it cooks beyond 240°F, it will become too hard and brittle.
These homemade Pecan and Caramel Turtle Candies are a perfect balance of sweet, nutty, and chewy, and they make an excellent gift or treat for any occasion!
