300 g
light corn syrup
120 g
water
60 ml
food coloring
5 ml
sanding sugar

Instructions
Prepare the grapes
Wash the grapes, remove them from the stems, and dry them very thoroughly so the candy coating will stick.
Cook the candy syrup
Combine the sugar, corn syrup, and water in a pot and cook until the mixture reaches the hard-crack stage.
Color and coat
Remove the syrup from the heat, stir in food coloring if using, then quickly dip or drizzle over the grapes and transfer them to parchment to set.
Storage
Store in a single layer in an airtight container with parchment between layers. Best eaten the same day for the crispiest shell.
Notes
• Best served cold for maximum crunch.
• Use seedless grapes for the easiest eating experience.
