   Lollipops are best made on the day you wish to serve
   them.
   
   Place corn syrup, water and sugar in small saucepan,
   stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Brush
   sides of pan with a wet pastry brush to dissolve sugar
   crystals. Increase heat, cook until syrup reaches 150
   degrees C when tested with a sweets thermometer or
   until syrup reaches hard crack stage. Remove from
   heat, add a little flavouring and colouring to syrup,
   stir through. Pour spoonfuls of mixture in desired
   shapes onto foil-covered trays. Press a lollipop stick
   into each shape; allow lollipops to cool at room
   temperature.
   
   Makes about 10.
   
   Flavouring & Colouring Suggestions
   
   For one batch of syrup add 1/2 teaspoon of raspberry,
   orange, lime or lemon flavouring and 1/2 teaspoon of
   red, orange, green, or yellow colouring. Mixture can
   also be divided and flavoured and coloured, as
   desired, to create multicolored lollipops.
