LEMON GUMDROPS



Lemon Gumdrops image

Candy can be made by cooks of all skill levels, as long as they don't mind standing and stirring for what can seem like an eternity (but is really only 20 to 30 minutes).

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield Makes 200 to 250 gumdrops

Number Of Ingredients 6

Butter
4 packets plain gelatin
2 1/2 cups sugar
Juice of 1 lemon
Zest of 1 orange
3 drops yellow food coloring

Steps:

  • Butter an 8-by-8-inch baking dish. Dissolve the gelatin in 1/2 cup water for 5 minutes. Combine 2 cups sugar and 1/2 cup water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir constantly and wash down the sides of the pan several times with a pastry brush that has been dipped in cold water to prevent crystallization.
  • Add the gelatin and continue boiling and stirring until it thickens, 15 minutes.
  • Add the lemon juice and orange zest and boil for 5 more minutes. Stir in the food coloring. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and let set up for about 1 hour.
  • Put the remaining sugar in a shallow bowl. Butter a large chef's knife and your fingers. Cut the lemon gel into 1/2-inch squares and coat with the sugar.
