How To Make Sour Candy Recipes

Steps:

• Put two 50-count silicone gummy bear molds on a baking sheet and lightly spray with nonstick spray.
• Combine the flavored gelatin powder, unflavored gelatin powder, 1 tablespoon of the citric acid and 1/2 cup cold water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently so that the sugar does not stick to the bottom of the saucepan, about 4 minutes. Do not boil.
• Pour the mixture into a small liquid measuring cup. With a spoon, skim off any bubbles that have formed. Carefully fill the molds and gently shake to ensure the mixture settles to the bottom. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours.
• Combine the sugar and remaining 1 tablespoon citric acid in a medium bowl. Carefully remove the gummy bears from the molds and toss in the sugar mixture. Enjoy immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Butter a loaf pan and set aside. In a heavy-bottomed 2-quart saucepan, combine sour cream and sugar over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and cook to the soft ball stage (236 degrees, see note). Stir with wood or bamboo spoon, making sure it does not stick or burn. Do not cook past the soft ball stage.
• 2. Let sit in a pan of cold water for about 5 minutes to cool slightly, then add butter and beat until it loses its gloss. Stir in walnuts.
• 3. Spread and press the candy into the greased loaf pan, let cool, and cut into squares.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners. In a large bowl, combine cake mix, soda, lemon juice, eggs, canola oil, gelatin and if desired, lemon oil; beat on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes. Transfer to prepared pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, 18-21 minutes. Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely., For frosting, in a large bowl, combine butter, confectioners' sugar, gelatin, lemon juice and food coloring; beat until smooth. Frost cupcakes. If desired, in a small bowl, stir together sugar and citric acid; dip cupcakes into sugar mix. Store in the refrigerator.
