Friends! Here's an update on the lollipops. They turned out so CUTE! The recipe for making them is HERE-Corn-free Lollipops . This time I tried 100% frozen grape juice concentrate for flavoring. I used about 1.5 Tblsps of thawed concentrate and it wasn't enough. They still tasted good, but not like grapes. So I will try 3Tbsps next time.
I am sooooo excited that I found HEART SHAPED MEASURING SPOONS to use as molds. I found them in the Target dollar spot, so if you head out there now, you might just find some. I also have a mini-muffin pan with hearts in case this hadn't worked. The muffin pan is not ideal because you can't control the distance between each mold, but I think it might have worked as an alternative.
I ran out of lollipop sticks, so I used the smaller measuring spoon to make small hard candies instead of lollipops.
Note: be sure to be patient and wait for the lollipops to really reach hard candy temps. I didn't let mine go long enough so they still made good lollipops, but they became floppy and sticky as we ate them.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!
