Like super, super sour. In fact, I recommend that you don&#8217;t dip a regular gummy straight into the container to test it&#8217;s sourness or you may end up without taste buds for the next few days. NOT that I would know anything about that or whatever . . . just saying . . . a friend told me. That being said, citric acid is key to this recipe. You can&#8217;t get the official Jolly Rancher taste without it. In the recipe, I added 1\/2 teaspoon, but you could go up to about 1 teaspoon before having to be worried. If you were to leave the citric acid out, you would simply be making hard candy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/DSC_4202site.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-8875\" title=\"homemade jolly ranchers\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/DSC_4202site-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"homemade jolly rancher lollipops\" width=\"601\" height=\"338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/DSC_4202site-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/DSC_4202site-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/DSC_4202site.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 601px) 100vw, 601px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Candy making often gets a bad wrap as time consuming and difficult. I definitely disagree with it being difficult in as far as the recipes that I have already instructed here, but it&#8217;s not that it&#8217;s time consuming- it&#8217;s more time sensitive. When the syrup hits the temperature, it must be off the heat immediately (it&#8217;s often best to remove it a few degrees before the mark to help prevent over cooking).\u00a0 In this recipe, you also have two cooling wait times that must be gotten to at the right time. The first is about 20-25 minutes after pouring the syrup into a bread loaf pan and scoring the candy, and the second is you have to wait until the scored candy slab is completely cooled before breaking the pieces apart. All in all, it pretty much just takes patience. <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><strong>Homemade Jolly Rancher Candy<\/strong><\/span><br \/>Ingredients:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3\/4 cup white corn syrup<\/li>\n<li>1 1\/2 cups granulated sugar<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup water<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon citric acid (get it <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2gfWY8S\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>1-2 drams hard candy flavouring (get it <a href=\" http:\/\/amzn.to\/2f1K9Bn\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>gel paste (get it <a href=\"http:\/\/amzn.to\/2fY9qcH\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Procedure:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>In a medium sized saucepan, over medium heat, combine water, sugar and corn syrup together and stir until incorporated.<\/li>\n<li>Once sugar has dissolved, insert candy thermometer and heat mixture until 300F (hard crack).
