                        Lollipop sticks

  Lollipops are best made on the day you wish to serve
  them.
  
  Place corn syrup, water and sugar in small saucepan,
  stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Brush
  sides of pan with a wet pastry brush to dissolve sugar
  crystals. Increase heat, cook until syrup reaches 150
  degrees C when tested with a sweets thermometer or
  until syrup reaches hard crack stage. Remove from
  heat, add a little flavouring and colouring to syrup,
  stir through. Pour spoonfuls of mixture in desired
  shapes onto foil-covered trays. Press a lollipop stick
  into each shape; allow lollipops to cool at room
  temperature.
  
  Makes about 10.
  
  Flavouring & Colouring Suggestions
  
  For one batch of syrup add 1/2 teaspoon of raspberry,
  orange, lime or lemon flavouring and 1/2 teaspoon of
  red, orange, green, or yellow colouring. Mixture can
  also be divided and flavoured and coloured, as
  desired, to create multicolored lollipops.
