Answers:
"An easy recipe for hard candy!. The hardest part is waiting for the sugar to reach the proper temperature!. Be patient and use a candy thermometer for perfect candy!. This recipe can easily be adjusted by using different flavored extracts and food color

3 3/4 cups white sugar
1 1/2 cups light corn syrup
1 cup water
1 tablespoon orange, or other flavored extract
1/2 teaspoon food coloring (optional)
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar for dusting

!.!.DIRECTIONS
1!.In a medium saucepan, stir together the white sugar, corn syrup, and water!. Cook, stirring, over medium heat until sugar dissolves, then bring to a boil!. Without stirring, heat to 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads!.
2!.Remove from heat and stir in flavored extract and food coloring, if desired!. Pour onto a greased cookie sheet, and dust the top with confectioners' sugar!. Let cool, and break into pieces!. Store in an airtight container!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
