Hi all,

I've gotten into making my own hard candy lately. It's been great, but one thing I've noticed is that after the lollipops cool, they have a kind of sticky film that doesn't go away. Jolly Ranchers and other commercial candy doesn't seem to have this problem.

I've not yet found or a good way to wrap the candy. I tried a kind of ziplock-bag-type plastic wrapper and the candy stuck to it really bad. Would cellophane get rid of stickyness? Could it be humidity at work? Or why's it doing this, anyways?

Thanks.
