Hello, :O) well just wanted to drop a note to all my readers and let you know that I am headed out for vacation. I'll try to pop in but sometimes cell service cuts out and I won't be able to make it in. Over the next 10 days I will have several guest posters as well as posts of my own that are preset to post. We are headed to the Colorado area to see areas like Silverton and Chama. We will be doing a little bit of gold panning, off roading and a lot of camping! Don't forget that there will still be giveaways running so make sure to come back for your daily entries. I hope you really enjoy the guest posts please make sure to check out their blogs to thank them for helping me out while I am gone. I hope your family has a fun and safe 4th of July. Stay tuned for lots of fun things when I return hehehe.
Most hard candies call for corn syrup, but since I was out and I have 3 children home I decided to experiment and make something fun! Here is what you need:
2 Cups of Sugar
2 Cups of Water
1 Package Sugar Free Jello
A candy Thermometer
Making candy is a pretty tricky process and trust me I messed up a batch or two getting this to work right.lol Put the sugar and water into the pot and turn on medium whisking well till the sugar is dissolved. Stirring pretty regularly to help the sugar from burning. As the sugar begin to boil turn the heat up to high. Watch your thermometer when the candy reaches 230 pour in the jello continuing to mix. Pour this mixture immediately into a cake pan that is lined with parchment paper of you can rub a little veggie oil in it. The candy will continue to cook as it melts anything over 230 you will be left with a burnt candy that tastes like licorice.lol After you candy is cooled completely turn it out onto a cookie sheet and break apart :O) I like to dust mine …
