Stained Glass Candy II

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Food coloring (various colors)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting
  • Wax paper

Instructions:

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, water, lemon juice, and salt. Stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves.
  2. Once the mixture comes to a boil, stop stirring. Use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature, and cook until it reaches 300°F (hard crack stage), which will take about 10-15 minutes. Be patient—it’s worth it!
  3. Divide the candy mixture into multiple bowls and add food coloring as desired—go wild! Stir until the color is well blended.
  4. Prepare a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Carefully pour swirls of different colored mixtures onto the wax paper, mixing them slightly for a stained glass effect.
  5. Let the mixture cool and harden for a couple of hours. Once set, dust with powdered sugar to keep the pieces from sticking together.
  6. Break into desired shapes and sizes. These stained glass candies are excellent for decorating cakes, adding color to treats, or just enjoying as is!
