Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a tarter flavor than frozen cranberries, which will give your candy a more intense flavor.
  • Cook the cranberries until they burst. This will help to release their pectin, which will give your candy a firm texture.
  • Use a candy thermometer. This will help you to ensure that the candy is cooked to the correct temperature, which is 235 degrees Fahrenheit (113 degrees Celsius).
  • Stir the candy constantly while it is cooking. This will help to prevent it from scorching.
  • Let the candy cool completely before cutting it. This will help to prevent it from sticking to the knife.

Conclusion:

Cranberry Jello Candy is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up fresh cranberries, and it is also a fun and festive way to celebrate the holidays. So next time you are looking for a sweet and tangy treat, give Cranberry Jello Candy a try.
