Hard Candy Li Hing Mui Lolli's image

I love this recipe! not to sure of where it came from i guess HAWAII since thats where i was born and raised:-) whats better than a GOOD sucker right!?? *ur gonna wanna prep ur molds by spraying them with pam or any type of non stick spay *remember to remove from burner as soon as thermometer reads 300 degrees to avoid over cooking candy (should look like a thick syrup) *ur gonna wanna move fast through the last steps so candy wont harden in pot.
