How to Make Lillimala
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1/2 cup of water, 1 cup of shredded coconut, 1/4 cup of glucose syrup (or light corn syrup), and a pinch of salt.
- Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly to prevent sticking.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (235-240°F on a candy thermometer). This will take approximately 10-15 minutes. The mixture should be thick and slightly stringy when you lift the spoon.
- Remove from heat and immediately stir in 2-3 drops of food coloring (green or pink, or your favorite color!) until the desired color is achieved.
- Quickly spoon the mixture into small cupcake liners, filling each about ¾ full.
- Allow the Lillimalas to cool and set completely at room temperature for at least 2-3 hours, or until firm.
