Hi Michelle,
No luck with a recipe to make this commercial product at home. You can still
buy them, though.
See:

In Feb I contacted you asking about a recipe for Chicken Bones candy.
Well I figured out the recipe and I made it for my Mom for Easter and she was
thrilled. She said the Chicken Bones tasted better then she remembered and much
better then the current Chicken Bones Candy that you can buy.
It was quite a complicated recipe with the hard candy center and coating and
then I had to make my own candy mold. But it was all worth it for my Mom.
Here's my blog with photos and my recipe:

Hi,
I might be totally mistaken, but I can't seem to find a recipe of Bill Knapps
for what I call orange chicken.
It's grilled chicken that is covered in an orange sauce. (I.LOVE.THIS.SAUCE.)
I've tried looking up pictures of the ginger marinade sauce but I don't think
that is this sauce. because the recipe calls for letting the marinade drip off
then cook it. and it looks a lot like Italian dressing on grilled chicken.
(https://www.copykat.com/2009/02/13/bill-knapps-chicken-marinade/ ) they have a
picture here and it is not what I remember!
The stuff I'm thinking about is ORANGE, and it's sweet but a tiny bit tangy and
they smothered there chicken in this stuff!!!
Please help. I hate thinking that I'm crazy!!
hank you for your time in this matter!
Jessica
Hi Jessica,
I'm not having any success with this. Not even a mention.... I'm seeing their
fried chicken, their honey-ginger marinated chicken, and their chicken fricassee
(aka chicken & biscuits), but no grilled chicken and no orange chicken. Sorry.
I'll post this on my site. Maybe a reader will remember it.

Dear Uncle Phaedrus,
You have helped me in the past with several answers to my question regarding
things other than recipes, and I am hoping you can help me this time.
In the past,several years ago, I was able to purchase canned tortillas, and
they were delicious. Since then, after looking forever on the grocery shelves
and elsewhere I have been unable to find them again. Do you happen to know
where I might order canned corn tortillas online? I sure would appreciate
your help. All I have been able to find online are tortilla factories that
apparently ship in large quantities to institutions, etc.
Thank you once more. This is the first time in a few years I have been able
to ask for your help.
Patricia
Hi Patricia,
Sorry, I also had no success with this. El Paso apparently no longer makes them,
and no one else seems to sell them retail. If there is a Mexican grocery in your
area, you might look there.

When I lived in England there was a delicious candy called "Cinder Toffee."
Do you have an original British Cinder Toffee recipe?
Thanks for your help,
Georga
Hello Georga,
I looked again and found these:
