Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/3 cup corn syrup
  • 2 lbs strawberries ((or assorted fruit))

Instruction

  • In a saucepan combine the syrup ingredients: sugar, water, corn syrup. Heat the syrup over medium-high heat.
  • Prepare your fruit with skewers. *I have to wash everything, that's why you see the abundance of paper towels. I was busy drying all the fruit!
  • Boil the syrup until it reaches 300°F (150°C) or the hard crack stage.
  • Once you have reached the hard crack stage, reduce the heat by one bit to keep the coating boiling. Spoon the candy coating over your skewered fruit. Move quickly through the process or you won't get everything coated in one batch of sugar syrup.
  • Allow the coated fruit to setup as you continue to coat the additional fruit. Place coated berries, grapes, tangerines, etc onto a parchment paper-lined plate, cookie sheet, or dish.
