Skim off foam with handled metal strainer to help with clarity. Monitor temperature using candy thermometer. At 280F degrees, coloring can be added. Cook until mixture reaches 320F degrees and remove from heat. Set saucepan into a cold water pan to stop cooking process. When syrup stops bubbling, gently stir in flavoring. Cover for two minutes.
