Ingredients

  • ½ Cup Granulated Sugar
  • ¼ Cup Water
  • 2 ½ Tbs Corn Syrup
  • teaspoon LorAnn's Candy Flavoring
  • ¾ teaspoon LorAnn's Tart and Sour Enhancer
  • Food Color

Instructions

  • Lay out the feather molds across a cutting board and set aside.
  • Measure the candy flavoring, tart, and sour enhancer into a small cup and set aside.
  • In a very small pot over medium-high heat, bring the sugar, water, and corn syrup to a boil.
  • Attach a candy thermometer.
  • If you are using a non-stick pot, you don't need to worry about stirring the sugar as it boils.
  • Boil until the temperature reaches 300 degrees, aka hard crack stage.
  • Quickly remove the hot sugar syrup from the heat and quickly whisk in the flavoring and food coloring.
  • Carefully drizzle the hot syrup into the molds one at a time.  You will need to be quick and efficient.
  • Allow the sugar quills to cool before removing them from the molds.
  • Once cool, carefully peel the mold off the sugar quill suckers.
  • Package with candy packaging or, my favorite...in the bags you would use for candy-coated pretzel rods.
