You may need to tinker with the proportions a bit when substituting. Try replacing a cup of light corn syrup with 1/2 cup agave, and increasing other liquids in the recipe by up to 1/3 of a cup. Let us know how it turns out! Some candy recipes rely on refined sugars to provide the optimal chemical reactions. You may need to tinker with the proportions a bit when substituting.

I'll ask one of our testers and/or someone else on staff familiar with the recipe to answer your question. Personally, I don't have any experience using agave. Actually, I only have a couple corn-syrup recipes and they're from my grandmother so no amount of health consciousness can make me change them, for nostalgia's sake.
