Sugar 1 cup
Corn Syrup 3/4 cup
Water 1/2 cup
Butter 2 tablespoons
Magic Dust A sprinkle
Extract Flavoring 1 teaspoon
Food Coloring A few drops

Take note
Be careful not to overheat the mixture, as it can burn your fingers and ruin the taffy-making fun! Also, remember to keep out of reach from any real trolls, they love sweets too much.

1

Mix the Ingredients

In a large saucepan, combine 1 cup of sugar, 3/4 cup of corn syrup, 1/2 cup of water, 2 tablespoons of butter, and a sprinkle of colorful magic dust. Stir everything together over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture comes to a boil.

2

Cook the Mixture

Attach a candy thermometer to the side of the saucepan and continue boiling the mixture, stirring occasionally, until it reaches 260°F (127°C). This will take about 20 minutes. Don't let the trolls distract you with their funny antics!

3

Add Flavor and Color

Once the mixture reaches the desired temperature, remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully stir in 1 teaspoon of your favorite extract flavoring and a few drops of food coloring. Choose flavors and colors that complement your troll's mood!

4

Let It Cool

Pour the hot taffy mixture into a greased baking dish or onto a marble slab. Let it cool for a few minutes until you can handle it without burning your fingers. This is the perfect time to practice your troll dance moves!

5

Pull and Stretch

Grease your hands with butter, then grab the cooled taffy and start pulling and stretching it. Fold it over itself repeatedly, like folding a paper fan, to incorporate air. This will give your taffy a chewy texture that trolls love!

6

Shape the Taffy

Once the taffy becomes less sticky and more firm, you can shape it into small balls, long ropes, or whatever shapes your troll imagination desires. Feel free to add more magic dust for an extra sprinkle of mischief!

7

Wrap it Up!

Wrap each piece of taffy in wax paper, twisting the ends to seal the treasure inside. This will keep your taffy fresh and ready for your next troll adventure!
