Description
For this method, you’ll be melting the candies in the oven without using molds. It’s so easy that you can do it in a few simple steps.
Ingredients
Scale
- Jolly Rancher Candies
Other Kitchen tools you will need:
- 4-Inch lollipop sticks
- Parchment paper
- Baking sheet
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 275 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Line the baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unwrap the Jolly Ranchers and place two or three candies side by side, as close as possible. This makes one lollipop. Let the kids do this so they can choose their own color combinations. As the candies melt, they will form one lollipop and melt to the side so leave enough space in between candies to ensure the lollies don’t stick to each other then they melt.
- Place in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes, but check at the fifth minute to ensure they don’t fully melt into liquid form.
- Remove from the oven and quickly push the lollipop sticks into the melted Jolly Ranchers. Make sure to roll the sticks gently to completely cover them with the melted candy.
- Put back in the oven for another minute just to ensure the sticks are completely covered.
- Let the lollies rest at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes before removing them from the parchment paper.
