- Day 2
- 1-1/4 cup sugar

- 2 cup sugar
- Repeat process from day 2.
- Day 4
- 1 cup sugar
- Repeat process from days 2 and 3.
Directions
After day 4 remove fruit from syrup. Blot and dehydrate for a delicious fruit candy. Glaceed fruit takes 1/4 the time to dehydrate due to the high sugar content.
Bring the syrup to a boil, skim and pour into hot sterilized canning jars or bottles with a snapping lid with a rubber ring. Makes a great X-mas present with some homemade pancake or waffle mix for X-mas morning breakfast!
