The table at our Sunday school Christmas party has a spot reserved for my divinity. I love making candy and have recruited my husband to help...between nibbles.

I'm allergic to pecans. Is there a way to make these candies without them?

These candies are not worth the effort. They're not very good.

These candies are a bit too expensive to make. I think I'll just buy them from the store next time.

I had trouble getting the divinity to the right consistency. It was either too thick or too thin.

These candies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

I'm not a big fan of divinity, but these candies are amazing! They're not too sweet and the pecans add a nice crunch.

I've made pecan divinity before, but this recipe is by far the best. The candies are so creamy and smooth, and the pecan flavor really shines through. I will definitely be using this recipe again.

Followed the recipe exactly and the divinity came out perfectly! It was a little tricky to get the right consistency, but I'm so glad I persevered. The candies are absolutely delicious and I can't wait to share them with my friends and family.
