DIY Broken Glass Candy

Hello! Today we're making DIY candy that looks like shattered glass. You will need:

• 1/3 cup of light corn syrup
• 1 cup of sugar
• 1/3 cup of water
• Parchment paper
• Baking sheet or casserole dish
• cooking spray or butter 
• Spatula
• Saucepan
• Candy thermometer
• Optional: food coloring
• Optional: flavoring of your choice (I used cinnamon)

First, line your tray or dish with parchment paper and grease with cooking spray or butter.

Next, put your sugar into a saucepan.

Then add your corn syrup, 

and water.

Stir, and turn on the heat to medium high. Keep stirring until mixture boils, and the thermometer reads 300º F.

After that, take the saucepan off the heat and add food coloring if desired.

Now would also be the time to add flavoring if desired.

Pour the mixture into the tray and let it harden.

 Once hardened, cut the candy into shard-like pieces. After that, you're done! This is how mine turned out:

 This DIY was super fun to make. They make great gifts and are good for decorating. They are also nice to eat in their own! I hope you try this out sometime.

Until next week,
