[@carolvillanueva3728]

Receiving a gift that Karen has wrapped makes you feel special because they're always so beautiful! It was nice to see Karen. Thank you! Happy Holidays to you all! 😊

[@josiahkeen98]

Karen needs some tweezer type tools to help with her decorating so the gloves stop bouncing her baubles away .gorgeous wrapping

[@angiesargent949]

It’s the little details that make it the best candy in the world from making it to packaging it! Thank you all so much Merry Christmas ❤

Dude this time last year my wife and I had just landed in Syracuse and her mom picked us up. We spent Christmas in DeRuyter where they live. I've always asked my mother in law to pick me up some Hercules candy (fruit and friendly is my jam) in years past whenever she needs to ship us something (we are in NC) she'd throw in some candy - at my request of course. Well, I don't know my way around the area so I had no idea where we were driving to when we left the airport. And then boom! we were in your parking lot. I was shocked. I've been watching you guys for years. We went in, bought a bunch of stuff, beanies, candy, a bunch of other stuff. I spotted Steve and called his name and he came and shook my hand and talked for a bit. I swear it was like meeting a celebrity. To me, it was meeting a celebrity. Then your mom came to say hey and gave me some branded stuff you guys have. She could tell I was a fan. I have been a candy junkie for my entire 38 years and it really showed that day. Man that was an awesome day. I fangirled out so hard it was a little embarrassing but I wouldn't change it. You guys are awesome. Thank you for the videos, knowledge, honest opinions, and fantastic candy. You've got a customer for life in me - all due to KZbin believe it or not.

[@susanaustin6353]

Kudos to Karen for her beautiful Christmas tree wrapping!

[@BuuWaterloo]

Thank you to Karen for teaching me how to tie a ribbon that easily and beautifully. And I love when Julia loves something, she gets all dancey and happy.

[@HerculesCandy]

She's very picky, so when Julia likes something you know it's good!

[@chrisb7558]

karen is a wiz at decorating the candy i would be honored to have that one

[@HerculesCandy]

She sure is!

[@hopegold883]

I can’t believe all the detail! Unless Aunty Karen works for free, those things must cost $50 each

[@brittbritt92]

@@hopegold883$15.99

[@EeroMyrsky]

It's amazing to see how much hands-on work goes into making all these. Really makes you appreciate them that much more.

[@Beatngu23]

I could listen to and watch Karen make things all day. Her gentle voice is so soothing!

[@mdunn4555]

Merry Christmas Karen you deserve a holiday break. Blessing to all of the Hercules Family and have a Happy New Years.

[@HerculesCandy]

Luckily she's got a break coming up!

[@lexiepie22]

with my OCD and Anxiety i could not watch the peanut butter xmas tree part and thats why i clicked on the video in the first place LOL :D

[@Meow_F]

Karen should make ASMR videos, her voice is fantastic and id love to see her decorate more stuff like that tree!!

[@BMarie774]

I love how Karen whispers while doing it. It’s so precious and calming lol

[@thisthatandtheother2226]

Karen is so creative with the packaging!! And I have missed her "tie it tight, like you are choking someone" lol

[@teijaflink2226]

It's extra funny because she seems so sweet.

[@sharonglazier2552]

It has been a long time since I heard Karen say "TIE IT LIKE YOUR CHOCKING SOMEONE". Merry Christmas everyone.

[@HerculesCandy]

It's not christmas without it!

[@claremccrory42]

Love to Karen - loved her fight with the peanut butter. She has good grace ❤😅

[@IdahoPohTaToh]

You should use a piping bag to put the Peanut Butter in the tree. Love watching your video and seeing behind the scenes! Merry Christmas! 🎄

[@jmarkley767]

Thank You Craig for seeing the chocolates from the beginning through the end! I have loved that since at the house!!🏠 🍫😊

[@ozarkfox69]

Merry Christmas everyone at Hercules Candy this is one of my very first posts. I love Karen so much the meticulous care and love she gives to each and every package she wraps. It’s so good to see her again and to see all of you all wishing you a very merry Christmas from the Ozarks of Southwest Missouri.

[@kaylagreen6775]

What a sweetie Karen putting in all that time for that little treat!!

[@LoveAcrossAmerica]

15:43 "You gotta tie it tight." How tight? "Like you're choking somebody" 😂😅

[@ShellyS2060]

OMG, somehow watching Craig pick out chips made me feel proud and old all at the same time. I really enjoy this channel and appreciate the content. Merry Christmas youse guys

[@HerculesCandy]

Thanks so much!

[@JenniferCagle75]

Yay Karen!!!! Best candy wrapper with the funniest catch phrase... Do it tight like you're choking somebody. 🤣

[@HerculesCandy]

I don't know of many other candy makes with such violent catch phrases 🤣

[@suizooie2922]

My goodness, Karen ages backwards! She is a talented beauty!

[@pattiwhaley1067]

I'm so happy to see the Miss beautiful karen it made me whole Christmas Holiday 🧑‍🎄🌲☃️🦌

[@JP-bn2kj]

@Hercules Candy Karen it's so nice to see you! I understand you don't care to be on camera, but just watching your hands work and hearing your sweet voice is wonderful. Merry Christmas 🎄 Lastly, I don't know what @Hercules Candy charges for the chips & choc chips, but it can't be enough. The amount of time that you put into handcrafted items is absolutely amazing. ❤❤

[@JP-bn2kj]

Karen: Tie it tight "LIKE YOU'RE CHOKING SOMEBODY" 🤣 Gotta love her!

[@MsLexagirl]

Wrap it like “you’re choking somebody”. Hahahahaha love you guys!!

[@SithMami]

Wow-those things take forever to make. Worth it! They're so pretty.

[@catherinerandall1966]

Karen's tree was just too gorgeous! Only what waits inside would have me me rip into it!

[@MelindaR412]

You should put the peanut butter in a piping bag to fill the trees with.

[@wileecoyote6607]

I grew up on a Canadian dairy farm but we no longer milk. I’d love to open a pizza joint. Dream. But I love cing this video n all ur work.

[@justcallmesuzzie]

I am totally amazed at the love and care that goes into each and every chocolate covered chips and that chocolate tree stuffed with peanut butter. It is AMAZING!

[@HerculesCandy]

Thank you so much!

[@crazyboyphilly1269]

Love coming home from making candy all day to watch yall make candy!

[@RisingTidesAC]

Craig, I know the words aren't elegant, but the best compliment I can give you is that you are just a genuinely a good, honest and polite son, brother and man! Merry Christmas and a very Happy and Healthy New Year to you and to your wonderful family! Also, I wish the same to your awesome employees, especially Julia! Yeah I like Julia!

[@HerculesCandy]

[@jmarkley767]

[@Lifeisbeautifulngrand]

Merry Christmas Karen I’ve missed your expert wrapping

[@HerHomeschoolHomestead]

I appreciate all the effort they put into their company. So wonderful!

[@Fritz0616]

So I was watching your video from almost 7 yrs ago on how yo make your chocolate covered cherries as this is a favorite of my elderly dads and I wanted to make it for him and didn’t know how..anyhow..as I’m watching the video I heard the son say you are located in Syracuse, Ny ..it immediately clicked that my brother in law use to bring the ribbon candy from his families owned store when he came to visit us which we live 3-1/2 hr away..I just went to your online store and read the history and sure enough you are my late brother in laws relatives his name was Brian Andrianos ..I don’t think he knew you had a YT channel because he never mentioned it to us..

[@andrea6421]

Wow! Gorgeous candy wrapping 👍🏻😊

[@HerculesCandy]

Thank you 🤗

[@linzertube]

You all do a wonderful job!!! Thank you and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!🎉❤

[@mzmerryweather]

This channel is always deliciously fun to watch!

[@carolcurtis2220]

Lovely to see Karen. Merry Christmas to you all.🎄🎅

[@KatieJoMikell]

That was hysterical with the static electricity peanut butter! Gorgeous wrapping Karen!

[@TriggerFinger1987]

The only Karen in the world everybody loves.

[@KatieJoMikell]

I watched this video when you first put it up 11 months ago and I ordered those peanut butter Christmas trees and they are so delicious. I highly recommend them! Thank you baker Karen!

[@LadyLuck262]

Would love one of those filled with Carmel!❤

[@PhantomDrums917]

Dashes off to place an order. Woohoo!!!! Very nice!

[@BMarie774]

Ugh, I love watching these but they give me such a sweet tooth! Every year for over half a decade now I’ve said “one day I’ll buy myself Hercules candy”. First it was a personal issue, then Covid, then a direct hit from hurricane Ian, now I’m dealing with a disability. But I’ll say it again. One day I’ll buy myself Hercules candy for Christmas! Hopefully next year! I look forward to these Christmas themed videos every year. Then again, all the holidays are fun to watch.

[@cassidybradley5197]

KAREN!!! So excited to see her! She’s incredible! ❤️🎄

[@alykatlovesmusic9219]

I would love to see a video of them packing the assorted candies/ packing and shipping!! I find that part is also very satisfying!!! Love your videos!!

[@ippaku]

Commenting to support the family the channel and all the wonderful employees. Be well be you

[@cremebrulee4759]

Merry Christmas 🎄!!

[@crocheting-around-the-planet]

Yeh, I haven’t missed HC when they up-loaded 🤎…(time zone is 5 hours difference) I’m in Yorkshire UK…🍫🍭 Get the right crisps Craig!😆 Sending 🍭 😊🤍

[@HerculesCandy]

Haha thanks for making us part of your nighttime routine!

[@90DayGoals1]

I've bought this before, as well as the heart ones at Valentines Day, and i can confirm. They are delicious!! 10 out of 10!

[@maryfeiten884]

Merry Christmas from Milwaukee! Love you guys!

[@HerculesCandy]

Merry christmas to you too! Also I love milwaukee haha

[@melissalove2463]

I’m spewing I can’t get those peanut butter filled Xmas tree’s ( as I live in Australia) , I would grab quite a few of them for presents & 10 for me to eat ! 💞🤤💞

[@daneekaplan4284]

I just started Scentbird two months ago. So far I love it.

[@thatgirlinokc3975]

You got your peanut butter in my chocolate! You got your chocolate in my peanut butter! 😂 the edit is making my day!

[@HerculesCandy]

We're here for ya!

[@shirleydesrochers3319]

Have you tried putting the peanut butter in a piping bag for the trees?

[@larrybridgers1823]

Your not pinching the chips Craig you know how mom gets the chips. You did it all wrong. Lmfao savage Craig.

[@jonsafford2567]

I believe the chocolate shaker pin needs to have a spring on it. I saw one on KZbin and it had a spring on the pin.

[@brandanbaird]

Craig: look it’s the static Me at home: it’s the hot glue string Craig: the ornament won’t stick because of the static Me at home: ITS THE HOT GLUE STRING!

[@patriciajustice5716]

I think it would be good to make the peanut butter like the center of a resse cup. And that string of beads was doing that cause of a glue hair, not static.

[@grimthanatos7350]

This video was a real christmas treat. It had lots of the best candy in it - the eye candy better known as Craig. Merry xmas to all you happy candy makers, thanks for bringing sweet joy to people in these videos and live streams. it's hard not to be happy when seeing candy being made :)

[@wendywyll5032]

Glue gun strings are it's own phenomenon. Worse than dealing with that "Angel Hair" stuff they used to put on Christmas trees long ago LOL

[@kimbain6019]

KAREN!!! Where you been,girl? I know I’m not the only one who’s been missing you. Merry Christmas! ❤

[@lobke666]

wrapping the Christmas tree is truly a great work of art ❤

[@JustMeeee2]

I can't wait to taste yalls chocolates! Thank you so much for the video and the 55% off!

[@anatoliagolden-hall4553]

Companies like your’s are what America is all about 😊

[@sharonlomas3720]

Loved watching Karen getting the peanut butter off, I can imagine doing that myself, so funny.

[@ChrissyRizzo]

13:38 with a knife from the pencil jar. Yuck!

[@sjochim9934]

Karen is the best!! I want to buy a Christmas tree just because of her. ❤

[@eruis3139]

karen's a treasure💗

[@JoseongKaTsinoyTV]

Its been a while did not watch your videos Hercules Candy,,,im glad that Karen still working in your company.

[@gaill7908]

Something about touching all the glue then the chocolate and the PB….dont want to be packing up bits of glue in there lol

[@carolann3318]

Don’t imagine you get too many of those trees bagged in a day.

[@nicoleneuman24]

I LOVE KAREN!!!

[@prettyprincess7793]

Just got an ad for reeses peanut butter trees lol They are not fancy and yum like Hercules candy!

[@muttzzeemoon4601]

How tight? Karen "like you're choking someone" LMFAO 🤣

[@kaatz60]

All I want for Christmas is 2 bags of “fluffernutter” ribbon candy! I was born in RI and I survived on fluffernutter sandwiches (peanut butter and marshmallow fluff). Have you guys ever thought of doing a jelly and fluff ribbon? I’d make that as a sandwich too.

[@myshadowstalksme]

Karen with the peanut butter tree pretty much sums up my day lol

[@vincentlafleche8203]

Hmm I wonder if using a piping bag (like for cake frosting) for the peanut butter filling would be easier and possibly cleaner. Lol my engineering mind wants to optimize all the packaging steps... The presentations you do is really pretty and clean. You guys are obviously proud of the work you do.

[@yourtravelswithbruce]

Karen just makes me smile!!!

[@nicolescags9330]

"Tie it like you're choking someone " Karen!!! 😂😂😂😂

[@paullebel3967]

Karen is the best of Santa's elfs❤

[@marisawoods]

What a sweet, sweet family you all are! ❤ Pun intended 😊

[@Sandy-zj2or]

i haven't viewed your videos for a long while, all I can say is.... Bring back MAX!!!

[@marilynsowards8489]

I just love watching Karen decorate! My very favorite!

[@marymcnabb1179]

Try a paint brush to patch up the chocolate on those chips. It might be easier.

[@carolynb9324]

Freeze the bottom with the peanut butter and the break it up. 19:46
