I have always to make 25 pounds of molten sugar and deep "fry" in it. 366 degrees should be hot enough.

But it my smaller experiments the water from the food quickly desolves the sugar.

So i want a huge vat of lava.

I don't want to sound like a dick, but oh God please don't do this. I've seen way too many terrible and horrifying sugar burns from people playing with molten sugar.

Seriously, shit's like napalm.

I am a candy maker but not at that scale ... yet.

Hard candy carmels taffy etc.

Okay good, I feel a lot better about it then. I've worked in candies too (a while ago), and sugar just terrifies me.
