Cockerel on a stick - a recipe from the USSR. Remember how you made caramel on a stick at home? To do this, it was necessary to take a slightly crumpled cap from a sour cream jar or from a bottle of milk, melt sugar in a large spoon with a long handle over a gas stove until it turns brown and blistered. Then it was necessary to pour the mass into the lid and, until it thickened, put a match with a broken off head at one end into sugar. And wait. When the candy on a stick has cooled and hardened, you need to tear off the foil. You can eat. Tasty! The lucky ones had molds for making lollipops, consisting of two halves fastened together, heavy as cast iron.
The sweets turned out scary, but quite edible.
You could also buy poisonous red or green lollipops in the form of cockerels, horses, bears from the hands of gypsies at the bazaar. Mothers often refused to take these sweets from the unwashed hands of people of unknown origin. Neither pleading nor tears helped.
Then lollipops appeared. This miracle quickly weaned us from making homemade caramel on a stick. Butit suddenly turned out that gypsy mud lollipops, compared to imported sweets, are just an environmentally friendly product, despite the terrible color and unwashed hands of the manufacturers. A bright and intricate imported candy on a stick turned out to be a warehouse of all the elements of the periodic table, even those that are not yet known to science. Doctors began to shout on all television and radio channels about the "benefit" of overseas sweets, and the children began to become covered with a diathesis crust and suffer from allergies that no medicine could take. The joke with the colored language was no longer pleasing to the mothers.
