1.Combine sugar, 1 cup of water,
cream of tartar, and rose food
flavoring in a small saucepan and
bring to a boil.

 2.In a separate bowl, combine cornstarch with remaining water, mix completely, and slowly stir into sugar mixture.

3.Boil over medium-low heat for 20-30 minutes, until the mixture reaches "
Firm-ball stage," or 245ºF (120ºC)
on a candy thermometer.

4. Apply non-stick cooking spray to a form (ice cube trays will do nicely), shallow pie pan, or jelly-roll pan. Pour the hot mixture into the pan or form
 and allow to set. When cool, release from form or cut into cubes as
applicable and roll each piece in powdered sugar, granulated sugar, or coconut. Store at room temperature in airtight container.
