Vegan candy that’s delicious and easy to make? No, it’s not a trick. It’s a treat!

Makes approximately 1 pound

What You Need:

2 cups sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup

1 teaspoon black food coloring
3 teaspoons pumpkin flavoring oil or extract of choice
1 cup powdered sugar

What You Do:

  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, corn syrup, and water and gently stir until sugar dissolves. Using a candy thermometer, heat mixture to 250 degrees, then add food coloring. Boil mixture until the candy thermometer reaches 300 degrees. Remove from the heat.
