- 1 ¼ cups sugar
- ½ cup water
- ¾ cup corn syrup
- dash of vanilla extract
- lollipop sticks
- melted dark chocolate
Instructions
To make the lion lollipops:
- Using a toothpick and some melted dark chocolate, draw on the lion’s eye, nose and mouth.
- Wet a paper towel and moisten the area around the face of the bear-shaped Green Tea Lollipops. Gently attach some cotton candy all around the perimeter of the bear’s face, to create the lion’s mane.
To make the tiger lollipops:
- Pour the sugar, water, corn syrup and vanilla extract into a pot, and set it to medium heat. Stir with a rubber spatula until everything is melted and combined.
- Then increase the heat to high, and attach a candy thermometer to the pot. Heat the sugar until it reaches 310F, stirring occasionally.
- Fill a bear-shaped silicone mold halfway with the candy mixture. Using a pair of tweezers, stick some shards of coffee lollipops into the melted candy to resemble the stripes of a tiger. Work quickly before the candy sets, but be careful not to burn yourself. Once all of the stripes are in place, pour in the remaining melted candy.
- Then stick one lollipop stick into each shape, holding the stick in place until the candy fully sets. This will take around 15-20 minutes. Then gently unmold the lollipops from the mold.
- Using a toothpick and some melted dark chocolate, draw on the tiger’s eye, nose and mouth.
