Categories: Candy, Snacks
     Yield: 40 Pieces

     2 c  Sugar
     2 tb Corn starch
     4 tb Butter
     1 ts Salt
   1/2 c  Corn syrup
 1 1/2 c  Water
     2 ts Vanilla extract
     1 tb Orange; or other flavored
          - extract
     8    Drops food coloring; any
          - color

 In a large saucepan, stir together the sugar and corn starch. Add
 the butter, salt, corn syrup, and water; mix well. Bring to a boil
 over medium heat, stirring to mix in butter. Heat to 275°F/135°C,
 or until a small amount of syrup dropped from a spoon forms hard
 but pliable threads.

 Remove from heat, and stir in the vanilla, flavored extract and
 food coloring. Pour into a greased 8x8" baking dish. When cooled
 enough to handle, remove candy from the pan, and pull until it
 loses its shine and becomes stiff. Pull into ropes, and use
 scissors to cut into 1" pieces. Wrap each piece in waxed paper.
