Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). Line two 9 x 5-inch loaf pans or a 10-inch tube pan with greased parchment or heavy paper. Sift together the flour, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and salt. Cut the gumdrops in fourths. Fry the pecans in the 1 tablespoon butter or margarine. Mix pecans, raisins, and gumdrops together, and roll in 3/4 cup of flour mixture. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup butter or margarine and white sugar. Mix in beaten eggs. Mix in the flour and spice mixture alternately with the applesauce. Dissolve soda in hot water, and stir into batter. Stir in the vanilla. Stir in nuts, gumdrops, and raisins. Bake for 2 hours. The baking time for the tube pan should be about 30 to 40 minutes longer. Test about 10 minutes before the longer time. You may not get a clean tester, but you will be able to tell if it is the candy gumdrop or dough. Cool. Wrap in foil.
CRANBERRY GUMDROPS
I got this recipe from Taste of Home. I've made a small "tweak" or two. It's yummy and a nice change of pace from all the chocolate recipes of the season.

Steps:
- In a saucepan, sprinkle unflavored gelatin over the cranberry juice; let stand for 2 minutes to soften. Add cranberry sauce and 1 cup of sugar; cook over low heat until sauce is melted and sugar is dissolved; about 10 minutes. Whisk until smooth.
- Remove from heat and add cranberry gelatin (raspberry gelatin if you can't find the cranberry gelatin); stir until completely dissolved, about 3 minutes. Pour into 8 inch square dish that has been lightly coated with cooking spray. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 12 hours or overnight (do not refrigerate).
- Cut into one inch squares; roll in remaining sugar. Place on baking sheets; let stand at room temperature for at least 3 hours. I let mine stand overnight to keep the gumdrops from weeping. Turn pieces over and let stand for an additional 3 - 6 hours. Roll in additional sugar if desired. Store in airtight container at room temperature.
- Yield: about 5 dozen.

POPCORN GUMDROP CAKE
I saw another recipe posted for a Popcorn Candy Cake. It's a little bit different than this one (and actually looks fabulous). I think I cut this recipe out of one of the Taste of Home Magazine inserts. It's definitely for someone with a sweet tooth. Kids would love this.... The time noted is the time for the cake to set.
