Step 1

In a 3 quart saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, and water.

Step 2

Over medium heat, stir just until the sugar is dissolved. Do not stir again.

Step 3

Heat until the mixture reaches 260 degrees F.

Step 4

Add food coloring, if desired.

Step 5

Continue to boil until the mixture reaches 300 degrees F.

Step 6

Remove from heat and add flavoring oil, if desired. Do not lean over the pot when you add the oil!! The steam can burn.

Step 7

Stir until combined.

Step 8

Pour into a quarter baking sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray or lined with parchment.

Step 9

Let the candy sit so it can harden. Brake into bitesized pieces and toss with powdered sugar.

Step 10

OR pour into candy molds and allow to harden.

Step 11

OR pour free-form candies onto parchment paper. I find this is easier after the mixture has cooled just slightly, about 1 minute.
