Growing up I had an Aunt and Cousin that use to make these a good bit. Was sort of "Their Project" to do together especially around the holidays. I was so envious of them but fortunately they usually made enough to share when I would visit. Haven't thought about making these in years. Might be a good project for the grandkids one day.

I was trying to do that in all the other videos I watched to try and help lol.

[@inthekitchenwithmatt]

You are very welcome!! Have fun making it! If you are doing it for a Science experiment, I recommend doing a few variations. You could also put some in complete dark, like in a pantry, and then others put on the window sil in the direct light. And maybe another jar with candy in it in at normal house light. So you can see how light plays a role if any. Maybe try one with a stick and another with a string and see how the crystals grow. Lots of fun things you can do in the name of science with this.

A restaurant that we would go to growing up would use rock candy as stirrers in their cocktails including their old fashioned cocktails. I am one of 3 kids to our ‘rents.

For the ones that stick to the jar and cannot come out... take them and put them into a hot water bath (hot tap water) with the water coming up to about an inch from the top and in about 5 minutes they will slide right out. Yes you will have a huge jar shaped candy but you can chip it down to a smaller size.

[@inthekitchenwithmatt]

Yep! That is exactly what I do. :)

Hi. I remember Rock Candy from my childhood-in about 1955. Since then I did not see it around. Now I am over 70 y.o. and by a chance I was shopping in Chinese grocery and they had Rock Candy. I bought it and found, that the sugar is a lot less sweet then if you just take in the crystal form from grocery. And I am wondering if the change it the sweetness is caused by it's crystaline form or if the Chinese add something to the sugar to make it crystalize better or faster and as a secondary effect the sugar is less sweet.

[@inthekitchenwithmatt]

Hello!! No that is correct, rock candy has a milder sweetness than the table sugar it is made from. Because it is made from water diluted sugar. :)

I also have a question when I tried it seems all the crystals are at the bottom of the jar instead of the stick anyway to prevent that is it because the stick was to close to the Bottom of the jar?

[@inthekitchenwithmatt]

@@Emily_urgle hi there Leah, yeah that can happen a lot. Yes, make sure they stick isn't too close to the bottom. Also, make sure you heat the jar up first with hot water before adding the mixture to it. Rock candy while easy to make can be a bit finicky.

Hello Matt, thanks for sharing. I do have a question, can I insert more than one stick in same jar at the same time? Secondly, can I reuse the colored sugar mix after 7 days of forming the first rock candy?

[@inthekitchenwithmatt]

Hi there, no you can't, they will grow together and stick, unless the jar is really wide and the sticks are at least 2 inches apart. You can reused the sugar liquid, however you will need to heat it in again and add an additional cup of sugar to make up for the sugar that grew, because what is leftover isn't very concentrated. If that makes sense?

Hi Matt, enjoyed the video. Will be making with my son. One question: for the 3 cup sugar/1 cup water mixture, how much flavoring should I add? I’m using LorAnn super strength flavors. I tried to scroll through the comments to see if this had been asked before, but didn’t see that it had. Thanks so much!

[@inthekitchenwithmatt]

Awesome! Glad you liked the video and are going to try it out. I recommend using 1/2 to 1 tsp of flavoring to start. Once the liquid cools down a bit and before you pour it into the mason jar, glass, cup etc. You can take a spoon and taste a bit of it. If it isn't strong enough add another 1/4 tsp or so. That super strength stuff goes a long way.
