Steps:
- Squeeze lemons until you get 1 cup of fresh juice.
- Combine lemon juice and sugar and stir to dissolve.
- Boil mixture until thick and syrupy-about 20-30 minutes, stirring regularly. Test the syrup by dropping a small bit into cold water-if it crystallizes and becomes brittle, it's ready!
- Spray down a mini muffin tin or silicone mold with cooking spray and add heated mixture to the tin/mold. Fill each mini muffin cup less than halfway full, or fill small silicone molds about ¾ full. (I used a cooking syringe to help transfer my syrup into the silicone molds.)
- Transfer filled molds to the fridge to cool until hardened, ~1-2 hours.
- Pop out and enjoy!
- Yields 30 homemade lemon drop hard candies.

Candy can be made by cooks of all skill levels, as long as they don't mind standing and stirring for what can seem like an eternity (but is really only 20 to 30 minutes).

Steps:
- Butter an 8-by-8-inch baking dish. Dissolve the gelatin in 1/2 cup water for 5 minutes. Combine 2 cups sugar and 1/2 cup water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir constantly and wash down the sides of the pan several times with a pastry brush that has been dipped in cold water to prevent crystallization.
- Add the gelatin and continue boiling and stirring until it thickens, 15 minutes.
- Add the lemon juice and orange zest and boil for 5 more minutes. Stir in the food coloring. Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and let set up for about 1 hour.
- Put the remaining sugar in a shallow bowl. Butter a large chef's knife and your fingers. Cut the lemon gel into 1/2-inch squares and coat with the sugar.

Steps:
- Lightly spray candy molds or miniature muffin cups with cooking spray.
- In large bowl, sprinkle gelatin on 1/2 cup cold water; set aside.
- In small saucepan, heat 3/4 cup water and 2 cups sugar to boiling over high heat. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered 5 minutes until sugar is dissolved and mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat; carefully add to gelatin mixture, stirring until gelatin is dissolved.
- Divide mixture into 4 small bowls (or more, depending on how many colors/flavors you want). Tint each bowl with 4 to 5 drops food color, then stir in 1/2 teaspoon extract. Carefully spoon mixture into molds. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight until set.
- Carefully remove gumdrops from molds, using a butter knife as needed to coax gumdrops from molds. Roll gumdrops in sugar; place on waxed paper. Let stand at room temperature 24 hours to crystallize slightly. Store tightly covered at room temperature.

- Combine the gelatin, monkfruit, lemon juice, and water in a small saucepan over low heat. Heat, while whisking, to dissolve the gelatin and combine the ingredients. They will form a thick paste. Heat until the mixture is warm and pourable.
- Transfer the mixture to a measuring cup or bowl with a pour spout, then quickly pour it into the silicone gummy molds.
- Transfer the molds to the refrigerator to cool and solidify the gummy snacks, about 1 hour. Pop the gummy snacks out of the molds and enjoy!
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. I like to store mine in the fridge because I enjoy eating them cold.
