Grammarnazi1, I think your analogy is flawed. The ingredients involved in making these lollipops are just as readily-edible and composed of the exact same chemical compound as the finished product; but the same is not the case when it comes to the raw ingredients needed for making cookies. If this post demonstrated how to make homemade lollipops from corn syrup, water, flavoring, and energy in the form of heat, then such a method would be comparable to homemaking cookies.
