Citric Acid, 3.4 oz.

An organic fruit acid incorporated into hard candies and creams, citric acid serves to elevate the flavor profile of all LorAnn fruit extracts. The recommended usage stands at 1/8 teaspoon per 2 cups of sugar. For hard candy and other cooked confections, introduce citric acid once the hot syrup has cooled below 265º F.

Create a delightful sweet and sour coating for completed hard candy and lollipops by blending 1 teaspoon of citric acid with 1 cup of granulated sugar. Adjust the citric acid quantity as desired for a zestier flavor.

Beyond its culinary applications, citric acid is also employed as a key ingredient to instill a fizzy quality in bath fizzies (bath bombs).
