Christmas Hard Candy - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 c. granulated sugar
1/2 c. water
1/2 c. Karo light corn syrup
4 flavors (such as oil of peppermint, cloves, cinnamon, wintergreen, etc.)
4 shades food coloring

Preparation

To make this candy, you will first need a large slab of marble on which to pour the hot candy.
Possibly a large cookie sheet would suffice, but I've always used marble.
You will also need several pairs of scissors and at least 3 additional people to help cut the candy before it sets up.
