What You Need:

Making the Candy:
-
Adult Supervision is a Must: Candy making is fun but requires an adult's help, especially for the hot parts.
-
Mixing Time: In a big pot, mix sugar, water, and corn syrup. Stir over medium heat until it's all melted.
-
Heat It Up: Keep stirring until it boils. Then, let it cook without stirring until it's about 310°F (have an adult check the temperature).
-
Add the Flavor: Turn off the heat. Quickly add flour, the awesome Dolce Foglia Anise Flavor, salt, and food coloring. Mix it all up!
-
Pan Prep: Get the pan ready with butter or cooking spray, so your candy won’t stick.
-
Pour It In: With an adult’s help, pour the hot mixture into the pan.
-
Cooling Time: Let the candy cool down completely.
-
Taste Test: Once it's cool, it's time to taste your homemade licorice candy!
-
Share Your Candy: Show off your candy-making skills to friends and family!
Remember:
- Adult assistance is crucial for safety.
- Patience is key in candy making.
- Enjoy and take pride in your homemade treat!
