Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound grapes (red, green, and purple)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- Food coloring (various colors)
- Lollipop sticks (optional)
Instructions
- Wash and dry the grapes thoroughly.
- Dry them well — moisture is the enemy here.
- In a small saucepan, combine sugar and water. Heat over medium heat until the mixture boils and the sugar dissolves.
- Don’t rush this step. Stir often so the sugar dissolves evenly.
- Divide the sugar syrup into separate bowls for each color you want to use.
- Add food coloring to each bowl to create different colors.
- Dip each grape into the colored syrup and then place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Allow the grapes to dry for about 15 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate them until the coating hardens.
- Serve the rainbow candied grapes on a platter or on lollipop sticks for easy snacking.
Notes
Chilling speeds the set-up. Be patient as the syrup thickens when cooled.
