Salfwater taffy

Here's a basic recipe for flavored saltwater taffy that you can customize with your preferred flavors:

Ingredients:
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 cup light corn syrup
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon flavoring extract (e.g., vanilla, peppermint, lemon, etc.)
- Food coloring (optional)
- Powdered sugar, for dusting

Instructions:
1. Grease a large baking sheet or marble slab with butter or oil and set aside.
2. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar and cornstarch. Stir in the corn syrup, water, butter, and salt.
3. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil.
4. Continue cooking, without stirring, until a candy thermometer reads 260°F (hard-ball stage).
5. Remove from heat and stir in the flavoring extract and food coloring, if using.
6. Pour the hot mixture onto the greased baking sheet or marble slab.
7. Let it cool slightly until you can handle it comfortably, but it's still warm enough to work with.
8. Butter your hands or wear gloves to protect against the heat, then pull and stretch the taffy until it becomes lighter in color and firm but still pliable.
9. Pull the taffy into long ropes and cut into bite-sized pieces with kitchen scissors.
10. Wrap each piece in wax paper or parchment paper and twist the ends to seal.
11. Allow the saltwater taffy to cool completely before enjoying. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Feel free to experiment with different flavorings and colors to create a variety of saltwater taffy flavors for your candy business!
