Dissolve ground saffron in 3 tablespoons of boiling water and set aside (click for How to Use Saffron).

Place sugar, honey and oil in a saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat until sugar melts and turns golden, stirring occasionally (avoid too much stirring).

Add saffron and sesame seeds. Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking while stirring occasionally (do not let it darken too much).

Drop a small amount of the mixture on a greased aluminum foil or on a parchment paper. If it quickly solidifies, turn the heat to low.

Using a teaspoon, drop small portions of the mixture on the greased aluminum foil (or parchment paper), make sure to leave enough space between them.

Allow to cool. Then separate the candies from the aluminum foil using a knife.
