Candy apples

On show she says
two cups sugar one cup water one cup karo 250 temp cook with candy thermometer stir until boiling two ounces cinamon candy' red foo coloring dip in coconut crushed peanuts candy corn chocolate covered sunflowers dip in hot carmel then candy

I read 1/2 c water in directions so I did that but no Cinamon candy

Ingredients
Cooking spray
2 cups sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
One 2-ounce box cinnamon candy
- Few drops of red food coloring
Chopped peanuts
Shredded coconut
Assorted candies
2 firm apples, such as Jonathan or Fuji
- 2 firm Granny Smith Apples
- Popsicle sticks
Toothpicks
> Directions
Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking
spray. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, bring the sugar, 1/2 cup water and corn syrup to a
boil. Cook to 250 degrees F, or until the syrup spins a thread when poured
from the edge of a cooking spoon. Pour in the candy pieces and continue
cooking to 285 degrees F. Remove from the heat and add the food coloring to  achieve the desired shade of red.
Put the chopped nuts, coconut and candies in shallow bowls. Set aside.
Wash the apples thoroughly. Remove the stems from the apples and insert a  popsicle stick into the center of the bottom of each apple.
Dip the apples quickly in the candy mixture, twisting as you dip to cover the entire apple. Roll the apples in the assorted toppings, coating the bottom half of each apple. Place on the greased cookie sheet and allow the coating to cool and harden. Remove the popsicle sticks and use an apple slicer or a sharp serrated knife to cut the apples into slices. Place a  toothpick in each slice.
