Instruction manual
1
Classic recipe: mix water with granulated sugar and pour into a small saucepan. Cook sugar with water over low heat until transparent. A drop of syrup should solidify in cold water. Add some apple cider vinegar or citric acid. Then remove from heat and stir for 30 seconds. Put the finished caramel in a mold pre-oiled. Stick sticks prepared in advance. Wait for the caramel to harden. Instead of water, you can use a natural dye, for example, add some kind of juice.
