Ingredients
- 2 cups white sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon oil
- Red food color
- Powdered sugar
Instructions
Prepare the Pan
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Make sure it sits flat.
Add Ingredients to Pan
- Add sugar, water, and corn syrup to the saucepan. Stir gently until dissolved.
Heat the Mixture
- Place the pan on medium heat. Let it cook without too much stirring.
Watch the Temperature
- Heat the mixture until it reaches 300°F. This is the hard-crack stage.
Add Red Color
- Remove the pan from heat. Add red food color and stir well.
Add Cinnamon Oil
- Add cinnamon oil carefully. The smell and steam may feel strong.
Pour on Sheet
- Pour the hot candy onto the parchment sheet. Spread lightly.
Let It Cool
- Allow the candy to cool for one hour. Do not touch during cooling.
Break the Candy
- Lift the sheet and break the candy into shards of any size.
Add Powdered Sugar
- Dust powdered sugar on top. This keeps pieces from sticking.
Notes
- Use a candy thermometer for best results.
- Do not stir too much once it boils.
- Add cinnamon oil only after removing from heat.
- Add more food color for a deeper red shade.
- Store candy in a dry place.
