Here's a video on how to make crystal sticks candy. It's easy and fun to make, you just need to be patient and have fun.
Things you will need
- 1 cup of water
- 3.5 cups of sugar
- Food coloring
- Jars
- Lollipop sticks/skewers
- Clothes pins
1. Make sure the sugar on the skewer is fully dry ....
If it's not, the sugar coating will fall off and the new crystals will have nothing to grow on. You can also end up with a glass full of sugar crystals and the skewers will get stuck to crystals that are growing on the bottom of the jar and you won't be able to remove the skewers without breaking anything.
To make sure the sugar is dry, you can prepare them a day before and use water instead of sugar liquid. Place the coated skewers over your heating on some paper and let it dry. Then rub off the excess sugar very carefully to make sure you remove everything that doesn't stick to the skewer.
2. You can boil the liquid again and add more sugar, if nothing is happening ....
You can add more sugar if you didn't have enough or add more water to avoid any left over crystals. If you use the above ratio you and the sugar still dissolves, you have to add more sugar into the water until nothing dissolves any more. You will see it when there are crystals that don't want to go away. What works is adding just a little bit of water so these crystals can crystallize as well. Then you know you have enough sugar in it.
3. Remove the hard pieces of sugar off the top and transfer the liquid into a new clean jar ....
If the crystals are growing on the skewers but the surface is full of crystals as well, you can remove the top and pour the liquid into a new clean jar and then place the skewers back into the jar.
