The Kandiman

Recently, Steven the Kandiman came to school to show us how to make lollipops.

First we had to wash our hands.

These are the ingredients to make lollipops.

Steven boiled sugar, glucose and a little water until it was 104 C hot. 

Steven talked about the flavours and colours that we could add to our lollipops.

Steven added the raspberry flavour.

Then he poured the mixture on to his special tray.

The mixture is very hot.

Next, Steven added some colour.  He added green and red.

The mixture is still very hot.

Steven mixed the lollipop mixture carefully.

To make the pink, he pulled the mixture over a hook.

Then, he added the red and green mixture.

Steven has twisted the three colours together and pulled them into a long shape.  Then, he cuts them.

 Steven shows us how to make the lollipop shape.



 Now it's our turn to make one...

this is the best part!

With the left over mixture, Steven cut it up for us to try. 

Yum!

We agree that this is the best part!

Thank you Steven for showing us how to make lollipops!
