Mama's Old Fashioned Divinity

Name: Mama's Old Fashioned Divinity
Ingredients: Divinity is a southern confection that like so many other old southern confections is just about becoming extinct as a homemade candy. It's an airy, sweet and yummy candy that is a little temperamental and at times difficult to make. My mother has ma; 3 cups sugar; 1/2 cup light corn syrup; 1/2 cup water; 1/4 tsp. salt; 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla; 3 egg whites; 1 tsp. baking powder; 1 pkg. unflavored Knox gelatin (this will help guarantee they set up and won't affect the taste at all); pecan halves or maraschino cherries
