Galaxy Candy Sticks
Rock candy is easy to make and fun to watch the crystals form.
Your adult should be in charge of getting the water and sugar
mixture to boil, so you can get the skewers and the jars ready.
Ingredients
•1 cup Water
•3 cups White Sugar
•Flavoring and Coloring as desired
•2 Pint Jars
•2 Clothespins
•2 5-inch Skewers
•Plain White Sugar
Prepare your candy growing area (your jar) by washing it in hot
soapy water and rinse it well. You will need a place for it to sit
undisturbed for about 2 weeks.
In a small saucepan bring the water to a boil. When it is bubbling,
lower the heat and begin to stir in the sugar (1/2 cup at a time).
When all the sugar is dissolved turn off the heat and allow it to cool
for 15 minutes while you prepare the jars and skewers.
Wet the skewers with water and then sprinkle plain sugar on
them. Let this sugar dry and set while the solution cools.
When the solution is ready, pour it into the empty jars. Add the
food coloring and flavoring to each jar. Pinch the skewers with
clothespins and lower them into the jars, using the clothespins
to keep them from touching the bottom. The crystals will begin
growing in one to three days. When ready, remove the crystal from
solution and hang it to dry in an empty jar, and then eat when
ready!
Be sure not to disturb the crystals as they are growing.
