Stick Candy

Combine sugar and glucose with water in a pot and cook until it reaches 310°F (154°C).

Pour the mixture onto a slab.

Fold the mixture up immediately.

Cut off about 1 pound and color it dark red.

Keep the dark red piece warm.

Pull the large piece until it turns white, adding peppermint flavor while pulling.

Flatten the white candy on a spinning table to form a square piece.

Roll out the red piece.

Cut the rolled red piece into four pieces.

Flatten one of the pieces wide.

Place the flattened red piece on the white batch.

Add the other three pieces in different spots.

Form the entire batch into a round shape.

Raise one end of the batch.

Pull it into the shape of a long-necked bottle.

Lay the batch down.

Pull it into stick size the length of the table.

Have a helper twist one end while you assist on the other end.

Continue rolling the sticks until they cool to prevent flattening.

Cut the sticks with shears or a stick candy chopper.
