   Cook together sugar and water until it makes a soft ball when a little is
   dropped into cold water. Add pink cake coloring to the syrup, then add
   coconut to the syrup, and cook until it becomes thick. Pour onto a buttered
   platter ( 9" X 13"). As the candy begins to cool slightly, cut into
