Jujubes Candies

Description

Jujubes Candies..my childhood candies, i love still to have this candy, these candy r chewy n colourful n tasty..Juices like lemon , orange n  strawberry can goes with this candy, here I used lemon juice to give flavour to my candy..
Ingredients
1 cup Sugar
Butter to grease
¼ cup Water
Food colours ( red, green else as u wish)
Sugar for outer cover
25 nos Gelatin sheets r else 25 gms
¼ cup Lemon juice(can decrease r increase as per taste)

Instructions

Gelatin papers r transparent sheets which will give the chewy aspects to the candies, here its available as thin sheets..gelatin may also available as powders..they must be in essence r flour sections..can find them in any departmental shops..

Add Water, sugar, gelatin papers together in a heavy bottomed pan, heat them n stir them continously until they mix together, break the gelatin papers into small pieces r else cut them with a scissor to small pieces while adding, will make easy to mix well to the sugar syrup..once everything is cooked n mixed well add lemon juice n stir it for a few minutes..now divide the syrup in 2 pan( can divide them to many proportions, this will helps to give different colours to the candy, as i used two food colours, i did in two pans) add the flood colour (as ur choice)to the syrup.. Grease two flat plates n pour the 2 coloured syrups n let them cool atleast for 5 hours..After 5 hours cut them to any shapes as u required n roll them in sugar n let them cool for one more hour..

Jujubes candies r ready to chew..Kids will enjoy while cutting the jujubes…Ask them to participate with u n they will be very excite to give the shapes to jujubes as they wish.

Notes

Can use very well orange juice instead of lemon juice..sugar can be decreased or increased as per taste..

    I am planning t o make these, I could not get Gelatin sheets, but I bought gelatin Mix. The contents in the package says it already has sugar. Is that the same or is there a different gelatin mix.
