How To Make raspberry candy

  • Step 1
    Melt the sugar in water, and boil until it forms a ball - 250F degrees; add the raspberry jam, and stir it well. Remove the pan from the stove, add sufficient coloring to make a bright raspberry color.
  • Step 2
    Rub part of the mixture with spatula against side of pan until it changes into a heavy opaque appearance. Stir the whole mixture until it is uniform in texture and color.
  • Step 3
    Pour the contents carefully on a slab or jelly roll pan, covered with greased paper and pour until about 1/2 inch thick.
  • Step 4
    Mark into bars with a sharp knife, and break up when cold.
