100% natural orange lollipops. We cook ourselves
Are there children in your house? If yes, then this master class is definitely for you. Today you will give up store-bought candies, because we will prepare incredibly tasty, natural candies. On sticks! They are easy to prepare, pleasant to eat, and also worth admiring. Golden-amber, transparent candies look like magic glass! Interesting?! Then let's go!
Take 3 oranges, wash and cut them into circles 1 cm wide. We got 4 of these circles from one fruit. Accordingly, from three oranges you will get 12 lollipops.
Take a saucepan and add one and a half cups of sugar into it. Add half a glass of water.
Stir the mixture with a spoon and cook over low heat until the sugar has completely melted. This will happen very quickly, so don’t go far from the stove.
Drop the orange slices into the sugar syrup and continue cooking until the sugar syrup for the candies is ready.
Important: To find out if the syrup for candy is ready, drop a drop of syrup into a container of cold water. If the sugar drop immediately hardens, the syrup is ready.
Carefully pull the orange slices onto a plate. Take a bamboo stick with a pointed end and pierce each circle with it. Insert pre-prepared sticks into the resulting holes. They should be free of burrs and not pointed at the ends, so as not to get hurt while eating.
We could end here, because the orange circles already have a thin layer of syrup on them and little sweet tooths would happily eat them like that. But we wanted to make full-fledged candies with beautiful, transparent rims around the orange. So let's continue.
Take plastic jar lids and wrap the insides of them well with parchment. They will serve as a form. If you wish, you can take other forms.
Grease the parchment with vegetable oil so that the candies do not stick to it.
Place the orange mugs on sticks in the lids so that there is some space around them for the sugar syrup.
Pour a little syrup into the lids with oranges.
Once the syrup has hardened, remove the candies from the lids.
These lollipops will be a reason for joy at any time of the year. Prepare and have fun!
