Tie Dye Hard Candy Never Gets Old!

[@markriley24]

When the horrific news shows gets too much to bear with all the upheaval in the world I watch you all make candy and I just chill out and think maybe we'll be alright!

[@HerculesCandy]

We are happy to be your sweet oasis of calm ☺️

[@siouxsusskind5567]

I agree. Watching candy being made brings me joy!

[@thatgirlinokc3975]

Watching hard candy get made never gets old. So much measuring, molding and mixing 😋

[@sandyhartman2310]

Always enjoyable to watch candy made by “Hercules Candy”!

[@fortisimo2]

I bought my husband some hard candies for Valentine's day. We loved them so much we had to buy more before the month was over. This time we added one of the most delicious things I've ever had in my life, chocolate covered pecan brittle. If anyone wonders if the candy is good, it's beyond good.

[@splashypuddle]

Your personalities show in the way you mix the candy on the table. Steve is very calm, quiet, moves methodically & slowly. While Terry is scrapping very fast, loud noises with the paddles on the table & moving all over. Cooper is in between them somewhere.😂 They really put themselves & their love into everything they do.😊

[@sharoneddy3097]

I love the twisted pieces , Brain. It looks more tie dyed.

[@wildflower1397]

Yes! The twisting was awesome. Tie dye definitely needs a more random look than just stripes.

[@Taylor.Wiseman]

Cooper is such an awesome addition to the team!

[@Uniquelyyours1]

When Steve was putting the colors down I noticed that something didn't look right and then Terry confirmed my suspicions, lol. Where's the purple:) The candy looked yummy. Everyone did a great job. Thanks, Hercules crew, for all you do:) Really fun vidya.

[@juliebaker6969]

Seemed like purple was just bound and determined NOT to be in the candy.🤭

[@interpolagent9]

Your channel popped up as a suggestion awhile back. I love this content. The candy, the people, the process. Pure awesomeness.

[@HerculesCandy]

Thank you!

For anyone wondering. Cream of Tartar is a levening agent that acts fast and is a by product from wine production. Where as Baking Soad, also a levening agent, works slowly as you bake/heat. Baking powder is a mixture of the two so you get the best of both worlds.

[@slc1161]

In this case, cream of tartar is used to prevent the sugar from crystallizing, thereby allowing the candy to be able to be bent and molded rather than cracking. Because of this, it also contributes to the sheen of the candy as it is worked.

[@crichards037]

It's still kinda weird not having Max as a part of the shop anymore, but Cooper and Brian are doing so well and are quickly becoming a wonderful addition to the team!

[@fountainofjewelz1844]

Agreed, it's not the same vibe that I fell in love with. I hold out hope that he comes back some day.

[@laurenloeffler7502]

what happened to max:(

[@doratakacs794]

yeah where did max go?

[@crichards037]

Max decided a few months ago that he wanted to try something new, so he left Hercules Candy. It was on good terms, but that's about all we know as he is a very private person and didn't want to make a big deal about it.

[@mikeylikey710]

I was wondering what felt so different

[@jennymcdonald4174]

Have y'all made a rainbow candy where the flavors coordinate the colors? That would be pretty neat.

[@Sweep_The_Leg_Johnny]

love this! I made donuts for 18 or so years, mostly in a mom & pop local shop. It was much the same vibe as this place. Experimenting with flavors, small crew. Hard work, but rewarding!

[@melissashaw3583]

Man I love watching you all making candy. Thank you for sharing. It's relaxing in a way. Maybe not for you but for me it is. LOL

[@MarySmith-dh4ly]

Love the videos. I received my first order this past week. Got the cotton candy hard candy...Soooo GOOD!! Got some chocolates too. 8 oz..gone in 2 days. The chocolate is so good.

[@Thetimecapsuletx]

This reminds me of working in hot glass but you can use your hands. Beautiful candy!

[@oliviaannejohnson9689]

I love this channel it has inspired me to start drawing my own art

[@HerculesCandy]

That's so great to hear!

[@pandacrafts1332]

We always love watching you all making candy 🍬 ❤ keep it up. And ship some to the UK for us guys please 👍👍❤🐼❤

[@donnapalmeri9573]

AWESOME how this candy is made!! I need to run out and buy some ASAP!!😊

[@jaymespenner3441]

all that Herculean effort lifting the sugar and corn syrup, helps make you guys make amazing candy ;)

[@DreamDancer82]

I like the part where he was pulling the candy before it went into the cutter. Those were very pretty. I love watching the behind the scenes of candy companies. I think it's a fascinating proces. EDIT: I'm in love with the candy bunny! Have you ever made a kitten?

[@desertdragonworksaz]

I'm enjoying some lovely cranberry bubbles while watching! I've ordered SO much candy from you guys lately! LOL. Would love to buy a bunny, if you ever make them available.

[@wanderwomen6574]

What can't Cooper do'??? Nice job as usual. Yum tie dye flavor.

[@expause6182]

Hello from Delaware! Watching this while actively waiting for my order to come tomorrow!

[@yukili384]

The candy animals look so cute! The candy looks so pretty, all of them!

[@elizabethadams5699]

Glad I ordered strawberry banana candy last weekend. It doesn’t hang around long. I just put in an order for tie died hard candy.

[@rmirmn1777]

I work at a bakery - there's 3 morning bakers and 2 day bakers. The morning bakers start at 12pm, 1am, and 3am and we open at 6am.

[@nicolestosko9792]

Amazing. Always amazing your work all hard workers every single one on you.

[@nancystocker357]

This is so fascinating! The colors are pretty

[@paolanieves5752]

I think if y’all try to twist the candy while you pull it it will give it a nice design. Like so the lines aren’t so straight, like you do with candy cane

[@paolanieves5752]

Would look nice with the tie dye

[@callmeizzy9785]

A Lofty Pursuits mug! One of only two places I miss from my 16 years in Tallahassee!

[@LoneWombat2126]

It looks better and much brighter with the white in there too. 🤩😋

[@Rhythm973]

They were blessed to have Cooper as the next in line

[@voiddiver1]

Just placed an order for 2 bags! And some potato chip bark! First time buying after watching for over 2 years

[@mariewilson2344]

Do you guys "cut" the candy anymore or do you just "crimp" it?? I love watching you all cut the candy and the ones with the designs in the center are so pretty!!! Keep up the great work!!!

[@millercreativestrategiesll8863]

We look forward to stopping by in late April

[@HerculesCandy]

We'll be here!

You guys should use a batch like to make it into a spiral circle to make large suckers. 🍭

🍉DUCKY!!!🍉Love watching candy being made...AND ALL THINGS TYE-DYED😁 🙋🏻‍♀️I need a tshirt like the vibrance of the one Steve in wearing in the catalogue AND an apron!!!😉👍🏻

[@user-Carrie3601]

Thanks for the video Scott

[@VoIcanoman]

No citric acid? That seems like a major oversight (unless it was added and not filmed?). No tropical punch is complete without a bit of a sour edge, as many of the possible tropical fruits in question (e.g. mango, orange, passion fruit, pineapple) all have notable citric acid (especially pineapple, which can have up to 8X the citric acid present in oranges).

[@davidvinson4681]

Looks wonderful enjoyed

[@reaper_6six6]

It’s a rainbow not tie die. There are ways around mixing it to make a tie die. Roll smaller pieces and stand them up but stack them around in a circle formation.

[@Sharknado451]

Ohh I soo can't wait for this tie dye flavored hard candy to come here

[@katherinekinnaird4408]

The end piece animals for giveaway is a great idea. Thank you all.

[@craigmiesterable]

I guess it was a 'Coop (coup) de grace' to the bulb ending of the candy block to make the candy rabbit haha

[@giacomanrocker]

make Hercules candy great again... oh wait it has always been great.. well make it even greatter

[@GrandmaLoves2Scuba]

I spotted two orange and zero purple immediately. It was bugging me so badly, until they caught it, lol.

[@kimicatcyprowski1781]

Love the video it is kind of we're not seeing Max there but everyone is doing an amazing job I would like to know where Max is working now just kind of wondering if I do miss him

[@miltoncallan1471]

The candy looks delicious, when it's in focus. Seems like every 3 or 4 seconds it goes out of focus.

I learned the colors Roygbiv to , the silly things we remember from first grade 🤣 so long ago for me !

40 years ago and I still remember this, Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain. (Taught in English schools).

have you guys tried laying the colors out in layers and rolling them up in a spiral before covering in white??

[@juliebaker6969]

Wow, purple just did NOT want to be in that CANDY, DID it?

[@HerculesCandy]

😂

[@damnhandles]

I wonder if there's a way they could actually make the color pattern look like a tie dye pattern. Like configure the stripes a different way or something. Or do layers of color all the way around the big white center. Who knows. Definitely not me lol.

[@nadenecooper6076]

It’s sooo cool!

[@celiajean7093]

Would love to try your candy but shipping is way too expensive coming north of the 49th. 😥

[@heathercouse7479]

Why do you guys have to keep turning the bigger side of the candy will it melt or get hard if you don't flip it?

[@HerculesCandy]

Yes! The side away from the candy will get cold, and it will start to lose its shape, so a couple of reasons

[@kellyoconnor9773]

I want to see a no gloves challenge please 😂 I want to open a candy store and name it sugar diabetes 😂

[@christinestreitcs]

Look good

[@juliehoffman92]

Good stuff😻

[@robjenstreet]

So why doesn’t the white and the other colors not mix when you put them Together, if you can’t put the colors together?

[@rock-afire-fan]

what is the shape of the candy called? what type of cutter is used?

[@WolfgangHood8404FMF]

when will this be available online?

[@maddie_cow_tree]

What if you made some coconut hard candy and colored it white?

[@almossy9071]

stainless steel backing on the wall and put a small table under the hook so if you drop its okay?

[@xcarolynx2002]

I have never noticed if you guys have cushioned mats down around the cooling table and where the counter is that you make the hard candy at to make it easier on your joints?

[@HerculesCandy]

Yes! It helps our backs, feet and joints, highly recommend!

[@oksooners]

Is there a way to get free shipping?? 20$ 10$ worth of candy is wild.

[@noneyabusinessbiihh3462]

What is that ball of stuff you put in it at the beginning??

at some point it starts to look like fruity strip gum to me. Does that still exist?

[@Kaytie_Alexis]

the one with the Zebra on the wrapper?

[@marshagonzales593]

Yes I found the tie dye candy video

[@carolo987]

great bunnies -- very creative. I still miss seeing Max but Coop is growing more into his candy making. What is his background -- has he made candy somewhere else before? He's really learned the candy pulling etc. Needs a bit more strength. What happened to Joe as well?? I have basically been away taking care of my mother since last summer. She died in January -- 94 years old. Her condo is emptied out now and up for sale. I'm back home and catching up on my favourite youtubers.

[@byronmurphy1977]

Joe got a job nearer to his home. Sorry for your loss and welcome back. Coop had no previous candy making experience. You may have also noticed that Dylan has left (for his dream job on social media). Byron Murphy Channel Moderator.
