Lollipop is a solid mass made from sugar that has been cooked to a solid state. However, why explain what it is, because everyone was familiar with such a lollipop as "Cockerel on a stick" since childhood.
It is necessary
-
- 1 cup granulated sugar;
- 5 tablespoons of water;
- 1 tablespoon vinegar
- 1 teaspoon of flavoring
- a quarter teaspoon of food coloring;
- butter.
Instructions
Step 1
Mix one glass of granulated sugar with five tablespoons of water and one tablespoon of vinegar. Put the resulting mass in a saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly so that it does not burn to the bottom of the pan. Add one teaspoon of flavor and a quarter teaspoon of food coloring to the light brown mixture. Take a mold and grease it with butter, insert sticks or matches into the mold. Pour the finished colored mass into molds greased with butter or, if you do not have molds, onto a plate moistened with water and cut the mass into the desired shapes. Leave to cool. To prepare the next colored sugar cockerel, repeat all the steps above.
Step 2

If it immediately thickens, then remove it from the heat, add vanilla and pour it into pre-greased molds or onto a plate moistened with water and cut the mass into the desired shapes.
