Candy Corn

Of all my childhood memories, this would have to be the sweetest. My Mum used to make this for me for my birthday parties and it was always a huge hit. Now, I enjoy making it for my kids. It also makes a great gift packaged up in some coloured paper with nice ribbon.

Ingredients

• 8 -10  cups  popped popcorn (I find air popped is best)

1. Mix all ingredients in a large pot. I use a stock pot.
