Preparation:
Place first three ingredients in sauce pan. Boil without stirring until
crack stage (be careful of temp.) Remove from heat. Add 1 tsp extract of
pepermint. Divide in 2 parts. To one part add red food coloring. Pour on
buttered platters (ceramic).
When cool enough, pull each separately. Then twist 1 around the other. Form
into canes or sticks.
>From experience, I found the white part was not really white. I added green
food coloring to one and red to the other. Also, they looked much nicer with
just one color instead of twisting them around. Good Luck! |
