Ingredients you’ll need
- 1 cup granulated sugar

- Lollipop sticks

How to make these sweet treats
Start by combining the granulated sugar, corn syrup, and water in a medium saucepan. Place the saucepan over medium heat and stir gently until the sugar fully dissolves.
Attach the candy thermometer to the side of the saucepan without letting it touch the bottom. Allow the mixture to come to a boil and avoid stirring as it heats.
Continue boiling until the thermometer reads 300°F, also known as the hard crack stage. Once it reaches this temperature, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Quickly stir in the flavored extract and a few drops of food coloring to achieve your desired hue. Be careful while handling the hot mixture, as it can cause burns.
Carefully pour the candy mixture into silicone lollipop molds, filling each mold about three-quarters full. Insert a lollipop stick into each mold, ensuring it is centered and stands upright.
Let the lollipops cool completely at room temperature until they harden. Once set, gently pop them out of the molds and enjoy your homemade Candy Lollipop Apeach!
What to serve with these lollipops
Pair these lollipops with a refreshing glass of iced peach tea for a cohesive flavor theme. They also make a great addition to dessert tables featuring other fruity treats.
Serve them alongside chocolate-dipped cookies for a balanced mix of fruity and rich flavors.
Expert tips for perfect lollipops
- Use a candy thermometer to ensure the mixture reaches exactly 300°F for the right texture.
- Work quickly when adding the extract and food coloring, as the mixture begins to harden fast.
- Lightly grease the silicone molds before pouring the candy mixture to make removal easier.
