I finally ordered some chocolate and fruity candy from y'all last week! I was super nervous that it would be melted/broken even though I added the cold pack. Everything was great! The packing was wonderful and even though the cold pack was room temp by the time I was able to grab the package, everything was intact. The chocolate is so delicoous and creamy + the covered potato chips are amazing! I can't wait to order more from you guys!

Peach jam - never tasted that! But the other evening I had a pound of strawberries left - now I have two glasses of strawberry jam, and it is good too!

I was so sad that Max left, but I love Cooper and Greg 😊

that raspberry color when pulled looked like a raspberry sorbet. absolutely fantastic

I love your videos! The banter between the staff is fun and watching the process is so interesting. I'm on the notification list for your spice hard candy and the Autumn mix. I haven't been able to find the spice-flavored hard candies in years and they are my favorite. I've subscribed to your channel and will place an order soon. (I'd much rather buy from you than purchase candy from a conglomerate.). I plan to buy candy from you for upcoming birthdays and holidays. If I hadn't caught one of you videos I would never have known about you. I'm glad I did. 😄

Colors are gorgeous

That turtle is precious!

What a good teaching moment on the hook! Good job!

There is just something so mesmerizing about watching candy making.

I love watching my Hercules candies videos! I have been watching you guys for several years now and I am never disappointed. The new guys are great today they are making Peach melba! Rock on dudes love your tattoos.

Love the discussion about Buffalo! Come out and see us in Western NY!

We have choc limes boiled sweets in UK so if the choc ones go down well it could be a consideration to add the lime to it so it’s half n half like the peach Melba. Just a thought :)

Gosh this channel is just comfort food for my brain, it's so peaceful and relaxing but also funny and informative. Reminds me of my grandfather's sugar bush where they make maple syrup. It's just nice to see people who really like their jobs doing something that brings so much joy.

I love your videos! It's fascinating to watch them being made. I've bookmarked your website and requested notification when you make a batch of spice flavored hard candy. It's always been my favorite flavor and I haven't found it anywhere else. You are going to be my holiday go to site for shopping starting in October or November. Keep the videos coming! 😄

U should try Ispahan, a french invented flavour commonly used for macaron. Raspberry, rose and lychee. peach would probably work in a twist too.

Definitely want to see a video of a company trip to the Falls or somewhere!!!

Peach Melba was made for an Australian opera singer Dame Nelly Melba and she lived outside of Melbourne by an Australian chef

I like how Cooper goes HAMMER! And suddenly Mjolnir flies in haha

Yesss new Hercules video!!!!

The reason the hard candy lasts so long is the flavors are so vibrant your sweet tooth is satisfied quickly. You don't need to eat more. 😋

I actually ordered the fruit and friendly before the video came out! It arrived on Thursday, but I haven't opened it yet!

is there a reason you dont spread them in a linear fashion as you make the different flavors, seems they would mix easier and quicker than the different piles of flavors?

Since the peach Melba is a vanilla ice cream dessert - trying the beach Melba with cheesecake might be pretty close! Great vid! I love your stuff - all of it ☺️

It’s a good thing that ‘Quick Steve’ leaves other trained staff to do the job he did regularly when I first started watching u guys way back when in the house basement…. I love those video’s in the house 🏠 Love from me in UK 🍬🤍🍭

Yeah, otherwise we wouldn't be able to make the hard candy as often as we do!

Melba toast was also created for Nellie Melba. She apparently dieted often

Max never got control like these guys.

I never see citric acid being added. Do you guys not use it or is it mixed in with the flavorings?

I really enjoyed the video that you guys do I love watching all the sweet stuff that you guys make eventually when things get better it's me and my family and when I have the money I'm going to buy some candy but right now I can't because we are in the process of moving. looking forward to the next video and see what you guys make next

You guys should definitely visit Niagara Falls. Stay the night any day during the week or weekend and see the fireworks they blow off and yes the light up both sides of the falls. It's absolutely beautiful. I live in a small city between Buffalo and Niagara falls.

Definitely gotta try some Hercules candy. Can’t wait to get some.

What kind of gloves do you use when working with hot hard candy?

I imagine the pitch meeting in the office going like this: - "Let's make some yoghurt!" - "Dude! We are making candy, remember?" - "So let's make some candy flavored yoghurt!" - "Still not working." - "How about yoghurt flavored candy?" - "Great idea!!"

Lights are on the Canada side. Worth the trip. Great candy making guys….

Do those gloves leave fabric particles in the candy? I've always wondered this.

should include a sweet cream flavor as well for proper.

when i first saw the colors my first thought was strawberry lemonade or something

On a peach candy making think y'all should start peach rings 😂😂😂

Something I've wanted to know for a while, why does the coloring sizzle when its put on the candy?

That's the water in the food coloring boiling out when it touches the hot candy, which is a good thing because if there is any water left behind you'll end up with a sticky end product.

I would like to know when the peach and raspberry is coming.

There is a peach Melba drink, too. 😊

i live an hour south of buffalo and you guys are on the opposite side of the state from me i wish your shop was on the way to the falls

I've been to Niagara Falls at night its breath taking, something everyone needs to Experience Atleast once.

So, if you’d taken off a small amount of the unflavoured, uncoloured candy half and added vanilla, before adding the peach and yellow to the larger amount, along with the raspberry half, you’d have the full spectrum of peach Melba taste sensation in one candy.

So I guess the comment about the dessert sounding Australian wasn't entirely off, since it's named after an Australian.

Have you guys made a "Cocktail" mix? Margarita, pina colada, screwdriver, that kind of thing.

🤩 love this idea, now if you made one side cheesecake. ie raspberry cheesecake with peach 🍑. OMG and leave the peach partially pulled on the hook so it’s the colour of the outside of the peach. Oh send me a whole batch.

Shouldn't there be a white vanilla stripe for the ice cream?

I'm diabetic....watching this channel is sheer torture,but I can't help myself I am addicted 😅

Love this video. Another French dessert is Creme brulee. It consists of cooked cream and a crust of caramelised brown sugar. You could even go for the look: vanilla flavored whit candy with a topping of brown caramel candy. Pull that into stripes and cut it for hard candy. Or make candy canes for Christmas out of it. We usually eat it at Christmas since it is time consuming to boil the cream to the right consistence and it is also a high calory dessert.

I curiously watch the candy pulling; what happens when the hammer hits the hook?

Steve needs to give Greg a few more lessons in grabbing corn syrup. He hadn’t been able to master it without getting his hands sticky. He needs to be a little quicker with the release.

Truth be told. This is like my 40th video. And these peach raspberry ones finally got me. Just spent $50 on the website 😂😂😂

I know it's a dumb question, but the spoons you use to mix flavor or colors into the hot candy once in the table are they plastic or wooden? If plastic doesn't it melt a little into the mix? I ask as I am allergic to plastic and would like to place an order but I tend to be extra careful. Thank you.
