INGREDIENTS
3 3/4 cups white sugar
1 1/2 cups light corn syrup
1 cup water
1 tablespoon orange, or other flavored extract
1/2 teaspoon food coloring (optional)
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar for dusting
DIRECTIONS
In a medium saucepan, stir together the white sugar, corn syrup, and water. Cook, stirring, over medium heat until sugar dissolves, then bring to a boil. Without stirring, heat to 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads.
Remove from heat and stir in flavored extract and food coloring, if desired. Pour onto a greased cookie sheet, and dust the top with confectioners' sugar. Let cool, and break into pieces. Store in an airtight container.

HARD TACK CANDY
2 c. sugar
1 c. white syrup
1 c. water
Cook until it is 300 degrees. When you take it off the stove add food coloring, about 1/2 bottle, wintergreen or cinnamon. After it cools, add some confectionery sugar.
Years ago, we made this for the youth kids to sell at church at Christmas. We used a marble plate to break it up on.
