GUMDROPS
1 (1.75-ounce) package powdered fruit pectin 3/4 cup water 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 cup sugar 1 cup light corn syrup 3 to 4 drops peppermint oil or other flavoring oil Food coloring to match flavor (red for peppermint, yellow for lemon.....etc.)
Lightly grease candy molds. In a small saucepan, combine fruit pectin, water, and baking soda; set aside. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine sugar and corn syrup, mixing well. Cook both mixtures, stirring alternately, until foam subsides in soda mixture, about 5 minutes. Pour pectin mixture in a slow steady stream into the boiling sugar mixture, stirring constantly. Boil and stir one minute more. Remove from heat and stir in flavoring and food coloring. Pour into prepared molds; let set for 24 hours. Remove from molds. Let stand at least a day before packaging. Makes about 20 pieces.
