The molds used to make barley candy were cast iron & are no longer made. You can find them for sale as well, but you'll need a deep purse.
Once refined sugar became more available they stopped using barley sugar. The candy made now is now called Clear Toy Candy & has no barley in it.
Thank you for the web info, even if expensive they'll be worth it if they taste they way they used to. Thank you also for the recipe, may have to go hunting for molds.
