Here is what you'll need! Rock Candy MATERIALS Cake pop stick 1 cup water 2-3 cups of sugar 1 tablespoon food coloring Mason jar Clothespin INSTRUCTIONS 1. Dip a cake pop stick water, then dip into sugar. Set aside to dry, until the sugar has hardened on the cake pop stick. 2. In a medium-sized pot, heat 1 cup of water and bring to a simmer. 3. Slowly incorporate 2-3 cups of sugar into the hot water. Add sugar in about half a cup at a time until sugar can no longer dissolve in the water. Mix the solution consistently to ensure the sugar is dissolving. 4. Add 1 tablespoon of food coloring to add color. 5. Carefully pour the sugar mixture into a mason jar. 6. Insert the dried sugar coated cake pop stick into the sugar solution. Make sure the stick does not not touch the bottom of the mason jar. 7. Use a clothespin to hold the cake pop stick in place. 8. Seat aside and avoid mixing for 3-5 days, to get the sugar crystals grow. 9. Remove the cake pop stick from the mixture to reveal the sugar crystal. 10. Allow the sugar crystal to hang dry from a mason jar. 11. Once dried, enjoy as a lollipop, in drinks or as a decoration.
