I attempted to make lollipops for the first and last time. I do not recommend cooking sugar to 320 degrees with two small children under foot. It was stressful and messy! I will, however, try this project again with some melted chocolates, since it is far easier. We used this idea from Martha Stewart to make heart-shaped “petals” for our flowers, which my five-year-old cut. I used the lollipop recipe from Martha Stewart as well, which can be found here.
