I used to live in Wisconsin, and this recipe was awesome!! We made it the first time when we were kids, and our parents weren't home.... freaked us out (we couldn't figure out at first why you needed a large pot). We just spead it out on a big cookie sheet, and then broke it up. The less baking soda, the better. When I moved down to Alabama, I tried making the exact same recipe (it was one of my favorites) about 5 times before realizing that the humidity was screwing it up. So the people who posted the negative reviews might take that into consideration.
Edit:
I was able to make it work in high humidity!!! It was even raining the entire day I made it .... here's how I did it:
Make the fairy food, pour it in the pan, and immediately refrigerate.
As soon as it's set(about 30 min?), take it out, break it up, and dip it in chocolate, then immediately put it in freezer in air tight container.
Doesn't take long to thaw it, so take it out of the freezer about 20 minutes before you serve it.
Worked for me!!
