Making homemade candies can be intimidating, but this is actually a quite simple method for making sweet, giftable treats. Follow these straightforward instructions and you’ll have sugary, jellied fruit squares in no time.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Puree the thawed frozen strawberries in a blender, then strain into a wide saucepan. Stir in the sugar and boil, stirring occasionally, until a candy thermometer registers 223 degrees F, 30 minutes to 1 hour. Reduce the heat to low and cook 3 more minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the liquid pectin.
  2. Pour the strawberry mixture into a foil-lined 8-inch square baking dish and refrigerate until firm. Cut into squares, then toss in sugar to coat.
