Inspired by Halloween, I took to
www.marthastewart.com for some party treat ideas. I found
this recipe for homemade suckers that can be tailored for any occasion with the right candy decorations. I chose pumpkin and skeleton candies. The options are endless!
All you need is:
2 cups sugar
2/3 cup light corn syrup
Lollipop sticks
Assorted candies

| Martha must have a steadier hand than I because my suckers didn't turn out very round. |
 |
| The candy hardens quickly so you have to move fast! |
Tip** Don't use your best pot to melt the candy mixture because it is tough to get out. The best way we found was to heat up the mixture again and again and pour it out onto the cookie sheet until it was all gone.

Next time, I may try to add some food coloring to the candy mix to see what happens!

| Enjoy! |
