- In a heavy (good quality) 2-quart stainless steel saucepan, mix together sugar, corn syrup, and water. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves.
- Insert candy thermometer if using, making certain it does not touch the bottom of the pan. Bring mixture to a boil without stirring.
- Early in the cooking process, "wash down" any sugar crystals that form on the sides of the pan with a wet pastry brush.
- Continue to cook the syrup, without stirring, until the temperature reaches 260°F.
- Add drops of coloring until desired hue is achieved. Do not stir; boiling action will incorporate color into syrup.
- Remove from heat precisely at 300°F.
- After boiling action has ceased, add flavor and stir. USE CAUTION WHEN ADDING FLAVORING TO AVOID RISING STEAM.
- Lastly add the Fumaric Acid and stir. Allow to cool slightly
- Pour syrup into something (we used pyrex measuring cup with a spout)
- Carefully pour syrup into prepared molds and allow to cool.
- Blitz granulated white sugar in a coffee/Spice grinder until a fine grain is achieved, next add Citric Acid, Malic Acid, and Tartaric Acid. Blend quickly to incorporate and pour into a bowl or zip lock bag for tossing hard candies in.
- After fully hardened, remove candies from molds, toss the candies into the sugar/Sour "Dip"
- Serve at your own risk.
