Lifesaver Candy Flower Pops Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F. Line a baking tray with aluminum foil and top with a piece of parchment paper.
• Place a Life Saver on the tray and surround with five other Life Savers to form a flower shape. Because you'll need room to add the sticks later, only arrange three or four flowers across one side of the tray.
• Place the tray in the oven and bake for 6 to 10 minutes. Watch the candy closely so it doesn't over-melt. When the candy melts just enough to spread and fill the holes (I pulled mine out about 30 seconds early, hence those tiny holes), remove from the oven. Immediately and carefully place a lollipop stick on the flower and let cool completely before peeling off the tray. The underside is the front of the flower.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Lightly grease two baking trays. Beat the butter and caster sugar until evenly mixed.
• Sift in the flour and cornflour and stir to make a dough. Wrap in clingfilm and chill for 20 minutes.
• Roll out between sheets of clingfilm to 6mm thick. Cut out 8cm rounds and put on the trays.
• Insert a lolly stick into each one. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes, then put on a wire rack.
• Mix the icing sugar with 2tbsp warm water, then spread on the biscuits. Leave to set slightly.
• Draw flowers with the piping icing and add daisy swirls.

Steps:

• Picture Tutorial Directions: Step 1: 2 dots of melted white chocolate on the smooth side of a Lifesaver, directly across from each other. (I use a toothpick.) Step 2: With the Lifesaver laying on counter (smooth side up), place another Lifesaver vertically (smooth side facing you) over the 2 dots of melted chocolate and hold in place for a few seconds, then set aside to harden completely in that position. Continue repeating this step until desired number of pacifiers is reached. (The "nipples" will be added in next step). Step 3: Starting with the first ones you made in Step 2, pick up and turn a half-made pacifier over (to the side with the hole showing) and line the edge of center hole with melted chocolate. (I used a toothpick.) Immediately go to Step 4 after each one. Step 4: Place a jellybean vertically in the center hole of Lifesaver. (I turn both smooth sides of the Lifesavers toward me, then align the side of jellybean that has the little dip in the center toward the front). After each one is completed, immediately jump to step 5. Step 5: After each "pacifier" is finished in Step 4, place it upright between the wires of a 1 to 2" high wire cooling rack. Continue Steps 3 through 5 until all pacifiers are finished. Let set for at least an hour (or longer) before transferring to a serving display. This is really important! If moved before completely hardened, they will come apart.
