2 c. sugar
1 c. water
3/4 c. white corn syrup

Boil ingredients to hard crack stage (300 degrees). Remove from heat. Stand back from pot and add 1/2 teaspoon red food color and 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon oil. Stir until blended. Pour quickly onto buttered cookie sheet. After cool, cracker into pieces (back of a spoon works) and shake pieces in a bag of powdered sugar. This is great at Christmas time. You can use other colors and other oils; for example: green and peppermint or spearmint. The oils can be obtained at the drug store.
