Method
- In a large saucepan, combine sugar, orange juice, and agar agar powder. Stir well and if needed, add a few drops of food coloring.
- Stir the mixture CONSTANTLY and cook on medium-high heat until it comes to a rolling boil. Then lower the heat to medium-low and continue until the boiling mixture is thick, for about 4-5 minutes.
- Pour the mixture into a 10x10-inch rimmed pan lined with parchment paper. Distribute the mixture evenly in the pan and chill for two hours in the fridge.
- Cover about 1/2 inch at one of the edges with parchment paper and sprinkle powdered sugar on top of the rest to create a white swirl effect.
- Dip a sharp knife in warm water and use it to loosen the jelly around the edges, then cut it into two blocks by running the knife across the middle.
- Roll each piece tightly into a log, careful not to get any powdered sugar on the end where the paper was. Use the end to stick the roll together tightly.
- Cut the orange candy roll into 1/2-inch pieces and serve.
