HONEY LEMON LOLLIPOPS

3-INGREDIENT HONEY LEMON LOLLIPOPS

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • Lollipop sticks

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or prepare a silicone lollipop mold. Arrange the lollipop sticks.
  2. Add sugar, honey, and lemon juice to a small heavy-bottomed saucepan. Stir briefly to combine.
  3. Cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Once the mixture begins boiling, stop stirring.
  4. Continue cooking until the syrup reaches 150°C (302°F), the hard-crack stage, using a candy thermometer.
  5. Carefully remove from heat. Immediately spoon small circles of hot syrup onto the parchment or mold, making sure each circle covers the end of a lollipop stick.
  6. Leave undisturbed at room temperature for 20–30 minutes, until completely hard and glossy.
  7. Peel the lollipops from the parchment and serve.

TIPS

  • Hot candy syrup can cause serious burns, so handle it very carefully and keep children away.
  • A candy thermometer gives the most reliable result.
  • Do not add extra lemon juice after cooking, as excess liquid can prevent the candy from setting.
  • Store completely cooled lollipops individually wrapped in a dry, airtight container.
