Snickers Freeze Dried Candy | Candy Mode

[@kfitz3741]

Girl you are a Godsend! Thank you sooo very much for the walk through with all the details! It’s incredibly hard to find videos like yours and I am really wanting to learn. Most people totally omit the settings and won’t respond to questions 😟. So now, and with your help, I’m about to make some grandkids REALLY happy! God bless you and many thanks!

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Thank you SoilSista, sometimes I have to remember to slow down and show exactly what I'm doing. I'm so glad this video was able to help you. Thank you for watching we appreciate you 🩵

Amazing video. Snickers are my husbands favorite candy and he is going to flip out when he eats one that is freeze dried. Thank you for sharing.

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Beautiful ❤️

I have one ordered from Amazon. There was a little boutique in our very small town ,selling freeze dried candy this past summer and they charged an arm and a leg for it. Once I found out how easy it is to make and how low cost it actually is to make , I decided to just get a freeze dryer and make it myself. I'm gonna make a bunch and send it to school with my son to hand out to his friends for free periodically. This summer I'm gonna try to get our local pool to allow me to sell it at the concession stand and I'm only gonna charge the kids a dollar per bag. We were paying 10 dollars for a bag with maybe 10 gummy worms , which moat kids can't afford where I live. Thanks for the video. I'm so excited to make snickers now ❤

I considered extending dry time while I slept, I ran into an issue where I had a heater issue due to extended dry times. The Harvest right tech told me not to have excessive dry times because the heater will switch on and off and possibly wear out the mechanical switch faster than normal. The machine will hold whatever your processing once it’s complete, it won’t run the heater excessively and now I know why!

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Oh ok, that's good to know I'm always worried I'll ruin my batch if it finishes during the night and have to sit. Thank you for sharing that with us we appreciate you ❣️

[@josephcriddle1991]

Ya but it refeezes your product after a certain amount if idle time which puts moisture back in your product

[@mechellemsrealdarrough5498]

I just love your presentation. Makes me want to buy the machine myself. I’m seeing more n more people buy n sell these♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Thanks for watching SoilSista we appreciate you 🩵

[@JaneDoe42011]

If I were a parent I'd get a freeze dryer just so I could fool my kids. I'd give them 1/3 of a mini snickers and they'd think they hit the jackpot because it's so big. Win for the parent, win for the kid.

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Exactly 🤣 such a great fun trick... Thank you for watching SoilSista ❤️

[@stevensims8922]

You pop that in your mouth and what I see is pure joy! :) Thanks for the idea.

[@Alaskan.Preparedness]

I just stumbled on your channel and subscribed immediately! Thank you so much for the detailed instructions! I just bought a freeze dryer and am still a wee bit intimidated by it but I'm gonna go watch all your videos now! ❤

[@UNBIASEDLLC]

I like the step by step instructions the machine gives.

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Love that part , thanks for watching SoilSista ❤️

[@Psalm.146]

I've never seen powdered Snickers in the store before. 🤯 That sounds AWESOME!!! 🤩

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Ha! I've never tried it but I can now 🤣

[@paigebenson6689]

my adhd makes it impossible for me to pay attention to anything over 30 secs basically. I was worried at the length of this video, but I dont know I felt like she would be a good one to watch. Love her haha I subscribed right away.

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Ha! I totally appreciate you ❤️

Good God's glorious Thrilling Thursday morning SoilFamily!! 🤗

Congrats on 10k🎉🎉🎉🎉. How did I miss that?? Woohoo! 50k around the corner❤❤❤

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

🥳🥳

[@The-Grateful-Hippie]

I can't wait to try the freeze dried Snickers😂🎉 Ive been freeze drying for awhile now but I've never done candy. I don't cut my parchment down, i just fold the excess underneath. As for putting the Snickers back in the freezer why not just let it sit in the machine awhile after the cycle ends and the heaters turn off.

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

It's so good!

[@christinadelsoldato3791]

I absolutely LOVE your videos and your energy! So so helpful! I do have a silly question… did you warm the trays or select no?

[@LayneBurn33]

Ur directions where amazing going to try it now. Thank u.

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

[@mrs.lazydayzahead]

Awesome Sherrie! I am making these today!!

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

These are my absolute favorite Ms Lisa! I powder them and sprinkle on homemade ice cream 😋

[@mrs.lazydayzahead]

@@BlacksTropicalHomestead although for some reason mine did not blow up as much as yours did.??…. Go figure….

[@tfallinbbq]

We have a freeze dryer and I am learning so much about candy. Just freeze dried Milk Duds cause I can’t eat them otherwise. So so delicious. Will try snickers and jolly ranchers next. Thank you

[@shaffergirl1732]

New subscriber here. The BEST tutorial for freeze drying that I’ve seen! Thank you for your hard work and for sharing. If you were my neighbor I’d totally want to be your friend. I’m off to the store for snickers! Much love ❤️

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Aww... Thanks beautiful SoilSista! We welcome you to our amazing SoilFamily. I'm here if you have any questions! Thanks for watching we love and appreciate you 🩵

[@PHExpatPrepper]

Nice.. I may try this too.. thanks

[@cherylb.9766]

I love it! Thanks for sharing!

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

You are so welcome!

[@DisabledandPrepping]

I've seen other freeze-drying videos from other channels. But I've never seen somebody show it while it's freeze-drying. I really love the sped up version of watching it freeze dry that was pretty cool. I would love to get a freeze dryer. Unfortunately, on disability, I just don't have the money. But I can totally see how it would save me money. Because I could freeze dry leftovers and not have to worry about it. But it's just the initial cost of purchasing a freeze dryer.

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Thanks for watching SoilFamily ❤️

Hey Queen. This is an awesome idea. TFS

[@homesteadmoon]

1. Your dimples are everything Queen☺ Love the vid, happily subscribed! After waiting over a decade to get one I have one I got as store display just a month now, so grateful & love learning cool tips like this. 2. Do you recommend a mylar bag w/window that has no heavy plastic smell onto candy?I have wallaby brand w/o window they are great but hope to get some cute ones w/window.

[@TripleThreatFirearmsDefenseInc]

Give me Bobby piece 😂😂. They look so delicious. Yes indeed it’s a total game changer. One day I will get me one. 😊

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Ha! Thanks for watching SoilSista ❤️

[@grandacres427]

Tah Daaaaah! thank you SO much for demonstating the crunch factor😅 it was all I could think about while you were prepping - "wondering what that chew sensation must be like" 😂😂😂 Now I can RE-replay so I can pay attention to the process - 😂tfs Ms Sherrie

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Ha... Thanks for watching SoilSista we appreciate you ❤️

[@josephcriddle1991]

I bought a French fry scooper for picking up my product. I have a large and an extra large

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Good idea

[@pescatariangardener]

😋 yummy nice tip. I'd probably put mine in a smoothie

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Great choice 🙌🏾

[@Hick-A-BillyLLC]

Yum! Looks good!

♥️🙌🏾♥️

[@TXPeter]

"You could put these on lay-away" --- now that is some old school sh*t right there! You just took me back 'bout 40yrs momma! LOL. Love them snickers, and we definitely gonna try that. We did skittles and gummy bears, both pretty damn good too!

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

They are delicious 😋

Love your video and instruction. Well done!

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Thank you!

[@billieb]

Do you warm your trays? Also, do they keep ok with no o2 absorber? Thanks for the vid.

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Yes they do keep good without o2 and I do not warm trays

[@billieb]

@@BlacksTropicalHomestead Now I am confused. You warm trays for marshmellows and snickers? What about jollies?

[@njddickerson5411]

Thank you that step by set very nice I see all these other ones saying you can't do these well shit they are wrong THANK YOU AGAIN

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

❤️❤️

[@FunkyDgoofy_YT]

Please tell me the name of the scissors you use on the jolly ranchers. I love them. and where can I get a pair?

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Quail scissors they came from Amazon

[@tonyanichols7074]

Girl I love it thank you! My question is what do you have in those beautiful bottles on the counter next to your work area? I am new to freeze drying and you make it exciting thank you

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Hello beautiful SoilSista, the drinks are blue butterfly pea tea (blue) and lemonade (purple) I make them with the herbs we grow. Thanks for watching we appreciate you

[@SonniesGardenPA]

I love snickers!

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

They are delicious 😋

[@psloop]

Hi, have you shipped any out to anyone and if so, how did the chocolate layer do? And melting and or complaints?

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

We've never had any issues

[@garymurdock6398]

Hello. Nice video. I have been wondering could you do snickers. I am currently trying to get into the business myself. If you don’t mind I would like to ask you a couple of questions. Like what do you do for your stickers? I am in the process of needing to add labels and such.

[@josephcriddle1991]

Milk duds are good also

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

😋😋

[@rexhavoc2982]

If the Snickers were dry, they picked up moisture from the freezer. If they were in the bag first ,they would stay dry while freezing. Maybe it's no big deal, I will try it and see. What will you charge for a bag of 14 pieces? Try Salt Water Taffy cut in half. Thanks.

[@iamstickfigure]

Did you do any pre-warming of these when candy mode started? My understanding is that pre-warming is usually required for them to puff up effectively, but I didn't see that step

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Warming of the trays? My trays do warm for one minute

[@iamstickfigure]

@@BlacksTropicalHomestead Ah. That is very helpful! The newer machines default to a pre-warm of 5 minutes, but it's adjustable up to an hour. Though I've never gone past a 15 minute pre-warm personally. But I'll keep in mind that a 1 minute pre-warm will probably be fine most of the time 🙂Thank you so much! I loved the video ❤

[@wannabe181]

Do you use oxygen absorbers or moisture absorbers for snickers?

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

I don't

[@verdiehamilton9697]

Hi Sherrie, of course I didn't have a chance to see this live but I enjoyed it anyway and I hope I can get a freeze dried machine because I love sweet, oh I finally see me Mullein Plants coming up, love ❤️ ❤️ you and Bobby' s videos, Verdie

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Good job soil! Mullein is beautiful and so beneficial. Clam that Freeze Dryer SoilSista 🙏🏽

[@lorenjudkins8197]

So we do have to put initial freeze -10 for these

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

It does not need an initial freeze I just never change mines...

[@andreapenovich2872]

Did you heat trays

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

No

[@renaeo10]

Have you tried to freeze dry Rolos candy? We would love a tutorial on these. We tried a batch and had a big mess! :)

[@BlacksTropicalHomestead]

Not yet!
