Aluminum Candy
My Rock Candy Won't Harden;(?
Here's my recipe for rock candy:
2 c. sugar
1 c. light corn syrup
1 c. water
1 tsp. oil (not flavoring)
Food coloring
Powdered sugar
Sprinkle cookie sheet with powdered sugar or spread a large piece of heavy aluminum foil and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Mix together sugar, syrup and water. Cook and stir occasionally until candy thermometer reaches hard crack stage. Remove from heat. Add food coloring and oil. Stir and pour on powdered cookie sheet. Cool. Break in pieces.
I did everything right, but it wont cool. It sat overnight, and all it did was get a little thicker.(Syrupy)
i think you may need a new candy thermometer....it seems like it did not reach hard crack stage.
