Multi layered/flavored jawbreaker

Creating a multi-layered and multi-flavored jawbreaker can be a fun and delicious project! Here's a detailed recipe to guide you through the process:

**Ingredients:**

*For the Jawbreaker Layers:*

- Granulated sugar
- Corn syrup
- Water
- Food coloring (various colors)
- Flavor extracts or oils (various flavors such as cherry, lemon, lime, orange, grape, etc.)
- Citric acid (optional, for sourness)

*Equipment:*

- Candy thermometer
- Small saucepans
- Heat-resistant spoons or spatulas
- Jawbreaker molds or spherical molds
- Parchment paper or silicone mats

**Instructions:**

1. **Prepare the Jawbreaker Layers:**

- In separate small saucepans, combine equal parts granulated sugar, corn syrup, and water. For example, you might use 1 cup of each ingredient for each flavor.
- Place each saucepan over medium heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Then, insert a candy thermometer into each saucepan.
- Cook the sugar syrup mixture, without stirring, until it reaches the hard crack stage on the candy thermometer (around 300°F or 150°C).
- Once the desired temperature is reached, remove the saucepan from heat and carefully stir in a few drops of food coloring and flavor extract or oil corresponding to the desired flavor and color for each layer. Add citric acid for a sour flavor if desired.
- Pour the flavored syrup into jawbreaker molds or spherical molds, filling them to the desired thickness for each layer. You can pour one layer at a time, allowing each layer to cool and harden before adding the next layer.
- If you don't have molds, you can also pour the syrup onto parchment paper or silicone mats to form flat discs. Allow the discs to cool slightly before shaping them into balls by hand.

2. **Layering and Shaping:**

- Once the first layer has cooled and hardened slightly, pour or place the next layer on top. Repeat this process for each layer, alternating colors and flavors as desired.
- If using spherical molds, rotate them periodically to ensure even coating and layering.
- If shaping by hand, work quickly to layer the syrup before it hardens completely, and smooth out any seams or rough edges between layers.

3. **Finishing Touches:**

- Once all layers are added and the jawbreaker is fully formed, allow it to cool and harden completely at room temperature. This may take several hours or overnight.
- Once fully hardened, remove the jawbreaker from the molds or parchment paper/silicone mats.
- If desired, you can polish the jawbreaker by gently rubbing it with a clean, dry cloth to remove any residue and give it a shiny appearance.

4. **Enjoying the Jawbreaker:**

- Once the jawbreaker is fully cooled and polished, it's ready to enjoy!
- To eat the jawbreaker, simply suck or lick on it like any other hard candy. As you work your way through the layers, you'll experience a variety of flavors and colors with each lick.
- Store any uneaten jawbreaker in an airtight container at room temperature to keep it fresh.

Creating a multi-layered and multi-flavored jawbreaker is a fun and creative candy-making project that allows you to experiment with different flavors and colors. Enjoy the process and the delicious results!
