I think max had the right idea. Have each colour as a cylinder and arrange them like numbers on a clock/spokes on a wheel, so each colour will have an outside facing area, then as you form it you can spin it, twist it and squash it about to move the colours around.

Yes, I think the flattening and curling is not good - the color in the middle might not see the light of day. Rolling them as you say sounds like it makes more sense. The first way works if they make it like Greg does, but they're not making it like Greg does, they're making flat candies. Edit: Oh, sounds like second batch they figured it out! Edit2: Nooooooooooo!

I think that flattening color layers is good idea, but you should not fold them exactly on themselves. Instead always put the next one about 2 inches to the left from the previous layer (like stairs) and then roll it from the right to the left. That way there will be about the same of each color on the outside of the cylinder.

Max had the right idea with the color cylinders and spokes, as well as his color theory... TECHNICALLY, if you have 3 colors and actually split them by 1/4, the 3 colors get halves, the other 3 colors get 1/4 of each of the other colors. Much more even.

Does anyone else sometimes watch the old Basement Era videos just to be like, "Man, look how far theyve come."

You could mix some white in there. Tie dyed things usually have white left untouched by the colour.

Hey guys! I'm a really new fan from the Philippines and I'm very likely going to go to New York this winter! And guess what's almost definitely going into the itinerary? That's right, visiting you guys. I'm so stoked about it. You guys inspired me to start making my own candy (since ordering yours definitely would not make the trip but I really wish I could!) and it's helped me get out of the worst of my depression after losing my job. Full disclosure, my mom is terminally ill and her treatments make nausea and dizziness a common thing for her. By way of you guys, I learnt how to make hard candy and what ho! It helped ease her nausea so much that she can actually leave her room more than once a week now! Definitely wouldn't have known that if I hadn't clicked on your videos and I'm so grateful for it. So yeah, that's all I wanted to say. I desperately hope the trip comes through, it'd be amazing to actually try your confections for real. 💛

Max had a great idea with the cylinders :) But you should divide the colours into 4 equal pieces. Keep 2 for the original colour, and and mix the other two. That way you get the same size :)

Glad you took Max's idea to lighten and added extra yellow, and love that Steve twisted it ... Prettier! Would love it twisted then rolled into a circle for an All-Day-Sucker ... even better if sweet and soured. Of course BIG PROPS to Terry's idea of the die in the first place. I Just Love the teamwork in these experiments! Best ingenuity is through collaborations.

I actually kind of prefer the first one because I really like those heavy almost metallic colours. But it does look less like multicoloured tie dye.

My 5 month old LOVED watching the candy mixing at the end of the video. With all those bright colors moving around, he was getting super excited and kicking like crazy :D

Why am I watching candy making instead of studying for my oncoming uni exam? These videos are a drug.

It's almost like you know what you are doing.

Thanks for recording dylan good to know videos are still available when Craig isnt xx

It's great to watch Max really gaining confidence & skill. I notice that when he's on the hook, QuickSteve doesn't hover over the process anymore like when Max first started...I'm sure out if concern that he might drop it (it looks very tricky & is probably WAY harder than he makes it look)! His increased initiative & ability to work independently must be such a huge help!

I swear Max has to be my favorite person in the world! Love the videos!

☮❤🧡💛💚💙💜 As Steve is forming it I can only think of "SuperelasticBubblePlastic"... That blue color was beautiful!

The primary colours you should use are actually yellow, magenta and cyan. The purple gets muddied out a bit when you use just red and blue. Using cyan, magenta and yellow will make the colours pop a lot more and match better and you won't get that "peas and carrots" effect. Definitely the spokes wheel idea will give you the best display of colours, since you use the clamp and you don't just chop the candy like other places do to show the inside :)

Candy people!!!! This reminds me of growing bio at my great grandfather's candy factory around my grandpa, uncle's, aunts and cousins. The banter of candy folks is priceless. My family did chocolate candies mostly, coatings, and chocolate wafers. I'm gonna share this with my uncle right now!

I hope I can have a relationship like pops and momma Hercules. Absolutely love watching these videos.

My expert candy make from youtube comment expertise tells me it would be nicer with more yellow or a better color mix, Max had a point when he was talking about the division of colors I think.

For equal division of colors each should. be divided into 1/4 using 1/4 to mix leaving 2/4 for primary colors...

You guys never fail to brighten up my day, I love your jokes, and passion for candy. THANKS!

So cool! Thanks Dylan loved the banter and jokes. You guys are the best! Like that you are a candy factory family.

I don't know why but it's not Christmas yet but you get me in the Christmas spirit and all fuzzy inside and fun and happy

I love when Terry talks "Sweet Nothings" and Steve gets all sidetracked! This was really fun watching you guys work out the kinks on something new. Loved the "Go Orange" blue and orange pieces.

How does this channel not have 1 million subs already? Watching them have fun making their candies is awesome. They all make it look so easy. 😎👍👊

Terry always looks like a deer in the headlights when she’s caught doing something. 🤣🤣

Making my morning with a brand new video of my favorite family and yes max you are family.

The bubbling colors are great. You wear lots of tie dye until you make it, then everyone is in the beautiful maroon. Fun stuff.

Why doesn’t Terry have a tie dye shirt on while she is making tie dye candy?! 🥺😂

Nice work! I love the relationship between you and lofty. I've ordered from both of you and was not disappointed!

Love that y’all work together as a team. I’m no candy expert, but, I was wondering, what if once you have the colors stacked then halving it long ways and then stacking it again that way you have double the colors going through before you pull it out on the canvas? Thank y’all for the videos!! I throughly enjoy watching. They really do lift my spirits. I am chronically ill and y’all bring some sunshine in my life on bad days. Thank you!

The whole time I was like "please listen to max. Split them in half and then one half in half again".

Beautiful! Definitely think some white in there would make the colors stand out more, but it still looks so fun and bright.

Task: Mix the colors. Terry: *Kneading* Max: *Pulling* Steve: “Look at the stripes!”

Gorgeous Candy! The only issue I see was losing a lot of the primary colors. Diving them in thirds and then combining them made the secondary colors twice the mass. Maybe slightly smaller sectioning next time? Either way I want to order it. 🤤

@lethiapage4767

The way to get same amount of each color is split the batch into thirds for red blue yellow. Then divide each primary color in half...so you have 6 halves. Set aside one each as primary. For the other 3 halves split again and pair off each piece with the other two colors for green orange purple. Now you have 6 colors in same sized amounts

Thanks Dylan for the footage , its was really interesting. You have a slightly different style to Craig but it's all good.

With my color theory history, the way you layered the candy on the first batch (with purple and yellow side by side) tends to make brownish colors..... I was screaming NOOOOO as Terry was layering them. Either separate with white, or need to put color families together. Red should touch purple on one side and orange on the other, etc. Enjoying watching!

If you stagger the colors like cards of a deck when you slide then across the table then all colors should show on the outside once rolled more evenly

you should have added white, to add more tie dye effect, ti looks like rainbow candy
