Candy Cap ID Request
    #24013020 - 01/15/17 08:04 PM (7 years, 15 days ago)

Habitat:
East Bay area. Underneath trees. In thick, clayish dirt.

Gills:
Attached (running down onto the stem and then stopping at a clear point.).  Burnt orange / red.

Stem:
0.5". Solid. Snapped cleanly.

Cap:
~2".  Smaller samples were convex, becoming flared (like a brimmed hat) for bigger specimens.

Spore print color:
Did not collect so could not take spore print.

Bruising:
No obvious bruising.

Other information:
Looked for the latex where I broke the stem, but didn't see anything obvious (also not positive exactly what its supposed to look like).

:thumbup: Lookin' good. Lactarius rubidus. Older specimens don't produce much latex, but you can usually see a little bit if you cut the cap.

Do you get a sweet maple-like smell from them?

Lactarius rufulus. Are the stems solid? you probably have some rubidus too. Their stems are usually hollow and they have a unique smell. Rufulus smells a little different and has solid stems frequently

I didn't notice any smell in particular.

I will gather a few tomorrow and take  more pictures.  Both species are edible correct? From my reading online they seem to be about the same culinary value.

To me, I can't smell the maple aroma until they're dried - when wet, it's almost a faint plastic/chemical smell. Once you dry them, it will be extremely clear if they're candies.
