Provided by Jessica & Nellie

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 Tbsp unflavored gelatin (I used 4 of the little packets)
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup cold water
2 Tbsp frozen orange juice concentrate
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp lemon extract
1 tsp orange extract
5-6 drops orange food coloring
12 oz melting chocolate or chocolate almond bark

Steps:

  • Soften the gelatin in cold water and set aside.
  • Combine sugar and hot water, stir until dissolved. Bring to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the gelatin mixture and slowly boil on medium-low heat for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and add the remaining ingredients.
  • Pour into well-greased molds. I've used silicone molds and mini loaf pans and the loaf pans work just as well as the silicone mold.
  • Let stand over night and then dip into melted chocolate. I also drizzled a little white chocolate on top just for fun. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh oranges, you can use frozen or canned oranges, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • To get the most juice out of your oranges, roll them on a hard surface before cutting them.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the syrup by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the syrup forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • If you want your orange sticks to be extra chewy, you can boil them for a few minutes longer than the recipe calls for.
  • Store your orange sticks in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

Orange sticks are a delicious and easy-to-make candy that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are a great way to use up leftover oranges, and they also make a great gift.
