step by step
Method
- Step 1
Make the candy syrup
- Add the sugar, corn syrup and water to a pot, scraping all the corn syrup out of the measuring cup.
- Stir in the white and pink food coloring so the syrup is opaque rather than transparent.
- Step 2
Heat to 300 °F
- Insert a candy thermometer and heat without stirring at all.
- Let the syrup reach 300 °F, then remove the pot from the heat.
- Step 3
Prepare the coating
- Combine the Nerds and crushed Jolly Ranchers in a bowl.
- Line a tray with parchment paper.
- Step 4
Dip and coat the grapes
- Holding each grape by its toothpick, dip it into the hot syrup.
- Roll the grape in the Nerds and Jolly Rancher mix until fully coated.
- Place the coated grapes on the lined tray to set.
