Wash and pat dry the strawberries and pineapple slices. Ensure they are completely dry to avoid the candy mixture from seizing.
Create the Candy Coating:
In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, and water. Stir gently to combine.
Heat the mixture over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Stop stirring as the mixture heats to prevent crystallization.
Allow the mixture to reach 300°F (hard-crack stage) on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, if desired.
Dip the Fruits:
Using a fork or skewer, quickly dip each fruit slice into the candy mixture, ensuring an even coat. Work swiftly, as the candy mixture hardens quickly.
Place the coated fruits on a parchment-lined surface to cool and harden.
Serve and Enjoy:
Once set, arrange the candy-coated strawberries and pineapple slices in a serving container.
Enjoy immediately for the best crunch, or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 day.
💡 Pro Tip: Sprinkle a touch of sea salt over the candy coating for a gourmet twist, balancing the sweetness with a hint of saltiness.
