3 c. sugar
3/4 c. water
3/4 c. light corn syrup
1 (3 oz.) pkg. apricot flavored gelatin
2 egg whites

Combine sugar, water and corn syrup in a 3 quart saucepan; cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until sugar dissolves. Cook over high heat, without stirring, until mixture reaches hard ball stage, 260 degrees.

Combine gelatin and egg whites (at room temperature) in a large mixing bowl; beat until stiff peaks form. Pour hot sugar mixture in a very thin stream over egg whites while beating constantly at high speed of an electric mixer. Continue beating 5 to 10 minutes until mixture holds its shape.

Quickly drop mixture by heaping teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper; cool. Yield: 6 dozen. NOTE: May substitute different flavored gelatin such as orange, strawberry, cherry for different color and flavor.
