I remember watching your Mum and Dad working in the basement together on their own, endless hour of stirring sugar. Now look at the flourishing business and all the staff to help them create their wonderful confectionery concoctions! Some days you can't make your sweets,, sorry candy, quickly enough before you sell out. Its wonderful to see a thriving business like Hercules Candy. I love watching you all, big gentle hugs from Manchester England xxxxx

Hi there! I just purchased something today, after watching you guys for nearly 8 years now. x.x What a wild ride it's been for you folks, and I am SO excited to finally taste the things I've been watching you make for so long! I did have a question though. I notice when you make creams you and you separate the tails / leftover tidbits from the corn starch you guys I think toss em? Have you ever considered using the tidbits to make a bark? It seems like a tidbits bark might actually taste really good! But, I have no personal candymaking knowledge and there might be a good reason to chuck all that. But! Hey, I'd totally eat a chocolate bark with various flavored confetti colored tidbits in it. Maybe toss in a pretzel for stability. ...man I'm making myself hungry and your stuff isn't here yet ! :( lol

"truffle" is just hardened gnache. if it got even harder than this, you can actually pick it up and roll it like a dough, then roll it in nuts, or whatever. gnache is a lot of fun to play with. while still warm, pour it over your cakes for a silky-shiny finish. chocolate candies are the easiest to make at home. any and all kinds... you know what's better inside chocolate than just straight up peanut butter? mix some powdered sugar into the peanut butter for a crumbly reeses-type filling. or mix vanilla chocolate into the peanut butter, for a smoother reeses-tasting type filling.
