Directions
1
Start off by draining and drying your pineapple slices.
2
Put the pineapple slices on parchment paper and stick them in the freezer until you're ready to dip them in candy.
3
Add two cups of sugar to a pot.
4
Add a quarter cup of corn syrup to the pot.
5
Add a half a cup of water to the pot.
6
Let the mixture come to a boil over a medium to medium-high heat.
7
Once your mixture begins to boil, add a candy thermometer.
8
Heat until the mixture reaches 300 degrees Fahrenheit (hard crack stage).
9
Once at 300 degrees, turn off the heat and remove the pot from the heat.
10
Add white food coloring to make the mixture opaque.
11
Add neon yellow food coloring for color.
12
Add peach flavoring.
13
Mix the candy mixture thoroughly.
14
Take a pineapple slice, dip it in the candy, let it drip, and place it on a pan with parchment paper.
15
Continue dipping all pineapple slices.
16
Once all pineapples are dipped, go back to the first one, flip it, dip it again, let it drip, and place it on the pan.
17
Optionally, drizzle additional candy over the pineapples while they are still wet.

2 cups sugar
0.25 cup corn syrup
0.5 cup water
white food coloring
neon yellow food coloring
peach flavoring

parchment paper
baking sheet

Tips
Do not stir the candy mixture once it's on the heat, as the heat will mix it itself.
If you don't care for the candy to be opaque, you can skip adding white food coloring.
You don't have to add any food coloring if you don't like to.
You can drizzle while they are still drizzling.
