These are the BEST candied meat jerky around! I have some in my freezer that I didn't capitalize/drain, and I had to redo the thing, so I didn't get to eat the whole thing, but I gave it a ten in the quality of the meat jerky and meat flavor department. A ten in the quality of the meat jerky, because it was gone pretty quickly (within the first few minutes), and there weren't any leftovers (maybe six or eight). These may be a bit of a hunk of cake to begin with, but the potential is certainly there. I wouldn't change a thing, this is a great Candied Animal treats recipe!
