How to Make Easy Awesome Lollipops

  1. Lightly grease a baking sheet with nonstick spray. Place lollipop sticks on the sheet, leaving one end extending over the edge and spacing them appropriately for pouring.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the sugar, corn syrup, and butter. Stir constantly until the sugar is completely dissolved.
  3. Increase heat to medium and bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring frequently.
  4. Clip a candy thermometer to the side of the pan. Continue boiling, without stirring, until the thermometer registers 275°F (135°C). This will take approximately 7 minutes.
  5. Remove from heat. Carefully stir in the entire package of Jell-O until completely smooth and homogenous. Be careful as the mixture will be very hot.
  6. Immediately spoon the hot candy mixture onto one end of each lollipop stick, forming the desired size and shape. Work quickly as the candy will begin to set.
  7. Allow the lollipops to cool completely on the baking sheet before handling.
  8. Once cooled and set, you can individually wrap them in plastic wrap and tie ribbons. Add little tags for personalized touches.
