Incredibly helpful! so many how to videos on this topic make the assumption that you have experience with this and just give you a recipe. Very simplistic instructions... Perfect!
I think this video was brilliant, best one I've seen. You very clearly explained how to make the toffee and helped me make an (almost!) perfect croquembouche. Thanks
Hi there. There's no need to put anything on the ladle before you add the caramel. As long as the ladle isn't hot, like you've run it under a hot tap, the ladle will be colder than the caramel. This means that the caramel will set as soon as it touches the ladle, and it won't stick. I hope that this helps and thanks for the comment. The Amateur Chef.
Thank you! Yours is a lot easier to make than some others. Other people say use caster sugar to pan and add water etc..... so much harder. Thanks again 🙏🏻
Nice video ,not quite understand why there're a few negative comments. I do have a question though which is why some ppl add a bit water to make this? what's the difference? thanks
I think it was great. People, why so picky?! You want a "Professional" video then go pay for it. This video is here as a free guide. There's no subtitles, it's not a grainy video, it's in english, and it covered alot. So the volume is a little off...turn your volume down. The video is exactly what it was suppose to be...a tutorial. I subscribed ~ Thanks.
Thanks so much for this video. I got it in my head to make simple sugar shapes to decorate a cheesecake with, but it's been so long since my pastry course I wasn't at all confident about it. I had you video playing as I worked and they came out beautifully. Thanks again.
Thank you! It's very helpful. I tried to do it before by boil sugar, glucose syrup and a little bit of water but it turned out so hard like a rock candy. Now I know how to do sugar decorations! Thank you
i can never be bothered to read all the comments.............no time either, i want to go in the kitchen and try this out., i have no doubt my efforts will look like yours, but i know i will have fun trying it out..................so THANK YOU VERY MUCH for showing me how to do it!!! have a great day your self, cos i think i will..............siggi
I LOVE this video. How fun and fantastic. Just one thing......I HAVE AND HATE MY DARN EXPENSIVE ELECTRIC RANGE. I live in Florida where most homes were built to accommodate electric. WHAT A MISTAKE. I can never get the results that I want without gas, and as I cook a lot, it is so exasperating! I will, however, try this for mY next deserts. THANK you so much for this!
I can suggest idea on that we can uses paper cups in two different sizes in dimeneson one of can big size can we full of sugar syrup and the small one you can deep in fix with paper cup then after some few seconds cuts the paper cup can really comes out like sugar glass
I was thinking the same thing, but as long as you aren't rushing there isn't too much danger of that. A bowl will usually have some sort of foot on the bottom that would show up in your sugar and is also usually bigger. But if you want a bigger one then a bowl would defiantly work.
just a tip , a heavy bottom stainless pot works much better , its common among chefs and pastry chefs that you never stir melting sugar you will increase the risk of it crystallizing
Hy, I want to ask something about caramel decoration. How can i keep it? If i put the cake with this decorations, in refrigerator, they are metls, if i keep it in kitchen they are ok. You know how i maintain decorations "unmelted"? Thanks.
Thank you soo much, I've been trying to figure out how to do this for years, and just couldn't quite unterstand how to do it, but after watching this video it really helped me :) Thank you, this video get 5 star from me :D

Thanks for this ace video. Love spun sugar and its so much fun! I watch master her and always see them do it but now I know how to from your video cheers
thought you are not supposed to use a wooden spoon?Shouldn't you use a silicone spatula? Was told this so as to not get impurities in the ismomalt from the wood.

Great and wonderful art and artist. I like to try it and I hope that I would do it successfully

Another video suggested putting a light film of vegetable oil on the ladle when making the nest
What an original come-back.
Can I make that but mini size using a think stick because i want to use that as a decoration for my sablé au chocolat glaçage

The Amateur Chef , I like all of your videos!
How should these be stored before placement and how long in advance can they be made? Thanks!
just a tip , a heavy bottom stainless pot works much better , its common among chefs and pastry chefs that you never stir melting sugar you will increase the risk of it crystallizing
Literally every video I have watched so far, they stir the damn sugar lol :/
Does it stick to the wooden spoon if you use it instead of the steel thingy?
I love how he is relatable xD "at least that's what we are trying to go for" Keep at it dude. Thank you for this video.
Thank you so much Sir.. amazing tips
Hy, I want to ask something about caramel decoration. How can i keep it?
If i put the cake with this decorations, in refrigerator, they are
metls, if i keep it in kitchen they are ok. You know how i maintain
decorations "unmelted"? Thanks.
Thanks Gregory, I really appreciate it and I'm glad you like the video!
is there any way to make the sugar spirals to strengthen so that they can handdle a chocolate cone with mousse in it?
that spiral is so beautiful
I can’t wait to try this. Thank you for this culinary lesson.
can you use wax paper instead of the non grease sheet?
Thank you soo much, I've been trying to figure out how to do this for years, and just couldn't quite unterstand how to do it, but after watching this video it really helped me :) Thank you, this video get 5 star from me :D
After you make these how long before you shouldn't eat them?
What a kind of paper you used

Nice chef
is it a powder sugar??
How to make sugar glass from simple ingredients?
what does that do?
Why is this in my recommendations? After 7 years
Ikr
Almost 8 years now
Thanks for showing this, it really helped me👍
U think taking a bowl upside down would work great to...like the tortilla bowls
very amazing amaurte chef
I think if you add water it wont go as brown, it stays more clear because it takes longer to melt. He melted it very quickly and so it caramelized.
great thankyou very much,its nice to see how its done without the fuss!!
is this sugar SUCROSE or sugar ISOMALT?
is it a powder sugar?? or a normal sugar
normal sugar
Great video, well done
I just love your Range, I want one, one day.
Thank you for givin me aloooot of useful tips! :) thanks for makin it easier. Great chef!

@TheAmateurChefUTube Great video! I'm hoping to see more helpful videos on how to make different garnishing pieces for cakes and desserts! Thumbs up for you!
I tried this...but the small nest like structure always melts after a few minutes...the thick decorations stay..
Hey!! good video ;)
one thing, try don't use a spoon when you're working with caramel, if you move it too fast the caramel wont work.
Soooo nice, thanks to share Your talents....!!
Que didactico me gustaria en español
nice idea for beginner learner like me 😁👍💕
what type of sugar
very nice video ! thanks
I don't understand this ; are you basically just doing random decorations or are they actually going to be used for decorations
Thank you greatly, Such a wonderful tutorial, really! I found this just in time for holiday dinners too.
Great tutorial. I'm so ready to make some posh desserts! :)
