I mean my god, this would be like Monet finishing a painting before popping a back flip "tada" then walking off nonchalantly. Also I had a look on your website, a little practice and the rose is now looking insanely good.
@@dcn584 America isn't perfect. Nothing wrong with pointing out the bad things so that we can all work toward making it better. Blindly ignoring our flaws as a country is dangerous. I love America. But it can always be improved upon.
I ordered these with the rose flavoring and they were so delicious and lovely. I will be ordering more soon. It is really fun to be able to see you make these and to be treated with them in the mail even though I am in Nebraska. Thank you so much for sharing. :)
With the scraps.. it'll be cool to see a package of scrap candies in random shapes and colors .. nothing wasted and I'm sure it all tastes great.. I'd love to learn how to do this.. it looks so fun .. hard candy and lollipops are my favorite 😊
It actually makes sense that the Cherokee Rose, an invasive species, is the state flower of my home state of Georgia. It's a flower that grows well in our region and is fairly common. In a grander scale it adds to the relationship Georgia has with its Native American history. The Cherokee rose is commonly associated with the Trail of Tears, in particular the removal of the Cherokee, which began after gold was discovered in Dahlonega, Georgia. The fact that this flower associated with the removal of native peoples is itself non-native is ironic, but also reflects the relationship between the Native Americans and the government.
As a Brit my favourite candy growing up was Parma violets as a grown up rose and violet creams, my parents live on the Isle of Wight where there is a lavender farm they sell baked goods with added lavender (the scones were delicious)
I'm from the U.S. but my mother lived in England as a child, so I was fortunate to grow up enjoying a whole other world of sweets and treats: Parma Violets, Sherbet Fountains, Jelly Babies, Wine Gums, Fizzers, Fry's Turkish Delight, being among my favorites. My grandmother kept tins of Quality Street and Lucky Numbers stashed away in the cupboards of her living room end-tables, so those are also very nostalgic for me. Here in the U.S. we have these amazing things called C.Howard's Violets. They are square-shaped, pressed sweets that are (most commonly) sold in a small, purple foil pack and billed as 'mints' (though the violet one's have no mint to them and are strictly a Parma violet flavor). I would highly recommend them to anyone who likes Parma Violets. I order them by the box (12 packs of 15 'mints') from Amazon.
The candy is gorgeous! This video also answers a question I've been having, which was about how the uncolored candy would turn out if it wasn't pulled.
Lol Greg.. love your humour!! We loveeeee the long videos.. if you have to "fill" in time with your soothing voice, please recite away!! This is a beautiful piece of rock candy... just beautiful...
Loved the poetry! It made me think of The Little Prince where the rose symbolizes love and how unique and precious it is even with a million roses out there, YOUR rose is extraordinarily special to you, you have to protect it and take care of it.
These are so beautiful! I love watching you make the "rock" ( what we call the sticks in the UK) When I was small, and on holiday at the seaside, we would spend hours watching the rock makers pull the sticks of rock. I loved it! You bring back lots of happy childhood memories, thank you :-) Off to vote for you now and maybe be day I will visit you in person.
No link for the voting. As for the talking, Greg, you just have one of those calm easy flowing voices, it doesnt matter what you say, because we arent listening we are being molded into a calmness.
Lofty Pursuits do you still make this candy.? Or do you only make them in a specific day or month. And do yall ship candy to TX and would i have to pay for the shipping fee or no.
I have a deep family history with candy in Germany. Although I never knew till last week I’ve been watching the lofty pursuits channel fore awhile and I would love to visit Florida very soon to see your candy because I’m in love with the art of image candy making. Keep up the good work!
These are gorgeous! I can't wait for the floral flavored candies. Floral flavors especially lavender are my absolute favorite. Never seen anyone make it in candy form. I'll have to buy them all.
@7:20 was such a beautiful moment, the soft music in the background, beautiful poetry, watching a master at his craft...so peaceful and serene on a Sunday afternoon
I always come back to this video when watching picture candy being made because this is my all time favorite design. Looks like a rose suspended in glass. I am sure the rose flavoring would taste nice too.
I finally managed to get a pack of these this past week and they're honestly the most delicious rose flavored candy I've ever had! You guys did a fantastic job with this rose candy, I can't wait to order then again 😊🌹💗
I got a bag of these (rose flavored!) for my 77 year-old mother, and had her watch the video first. She loved both! Also got the sunflower candy - she loves sunflowers. I ordered late for Mother’s Day like a dork because I completely spaced on the date, and you guys shipped AMAZINGLY fast. I just wanted to say THANK YOU for being awesome, and for making such wonderful treats for everyone. 😄❤️
When I made birds from clay I made many roses just like this. Very nice! I’ve never seen candy roses like this. I actually thought it was a rose in resin first. Excellent!!! ❤️🥰👍
Oh My God the crystal Rose candy!!! Wife ordered some with our assortment bag and its the most unique candy I have ever had. We had roses all around the house growing up and this candy brought those fornd memories of playing in the yard back again. We may have to change next years vacation to Daytona Beach next year.
Pretty sure they do sell them, but what he's saying here is that you can't really re-shape the scraps (in this case) into adding to a new batch of the same candy
If you remelt candy a bunch of times, it burns and doesn't taste right. So once they can't use the sugar anymore, this particular store lets them cool down, if the pieces are too big, I'm pretty sure they break them up a little bit, and they put them in a small bag and sell them labelled as "unicorn droppings"
I watched the banana video first, watched like 5 videos now. Incredible. Worth a subscribe. I've saved your webpage, and I'm gonna speak to my wife about ordering some sweets
On a youtube deep dive right now and I could not imagine how that huge roll could turn into those tiny detailed candies! Such a simple concept but so cool to see it's elaboration!
but its not all hes doing. his also sending out great positive vibes and being super cheerful, talking in a nice claim tone about stuff everyone likes. even reading poems its super chill and just like this one great light sport in a dark world.
When I saw the thumbnail, I thought this was a "How It's Made" on paperweights. This is a very beautiful candy and I love flower flavored things so that would be wonderful.
I just got my order. This is delightful! And exquisitely beautiful. It tastes like a fresh sweet plant, almost like the after taste of a snap pea, with the slightest echo of rose essence. It’s amazingly delightful! I’m trying to eat it but can’t resist looking at it over and over. What a work of art!!
he said in another comment somewhere here that reheating the candy to a re-moldable state would melt the colors together, burn the citric acid, and burn off some of the flavoring. the last two things would make a second "batch" taste not nearly as well as the original. and because they actually care about the integrity and quality of their product, they won't just reuse candy to avoid waste if it means it won't be as nice to look at or (more importantly) as delicious
So glad you got in rose flavoring for this - I love rose infused tea - sure the candy will be simply amazing. *note - sadly will not be ordering as you cannot guarantee the rose flavor. Will keep checking back hoping for that ability. :(
I bought a pack of these from the website and I can honestly say these are the most delicious hard candies I've ever had! They taste just as good as they look
floral flavors rock! I eat a lot of sweets that use rose and orange blossom, being part Arab. I also learned how to make violet jelly when I was a kid. good stuff!
watching these videos has inspired me, im considering being a candy maker myself now, there are plenty vintage candy shops in my city. old sacramento is 50% candy shops and 50% knick knacks. even if i dont become one, i have a deep respect for the art after being a subscriber for a good while.
RubyLovesRocket lilac unfortunately has a very strong basic, soapy taste. I searched far and wide for a way to make it appetizing and match the scent but I have long since given up
These candies are gorgeous! 😍🌹 I've been watching your videos for awhile now and I finally got around to ordering some of your image candies! I got peach, and banana, they were amazing! Really delicious, and so cute! Keep up the amazing work! 🍌🍑💖
Having grown up with a traditional English boiled sweet makers at the bottom of my road, it's amazing to me how similar and yet different the US tradition seems to be. Do you have an equivalent of the traditional "Rhubarb and Custard" and "Sherbet Lemon" sweets (I believe both are Victorian, or near Victorian sweets)? In my experience, visiting Americans have never encountered them (and find them slightly odd) but they were such staples of my childhood I can't imagine a sweet shop without them! (Also, if you do have them, it would be really interesting to see how Sherbet Lemons are made - how ever *do* you get the powder in the center without melting it into the boiled sugar?)
@Bauhauskiddo They are lovely - they are generally lozenge or sphere shaped, with the two flavours separated (a little like a yin-yang) the rhubarb side is quite acidic, and very distinctly tastes of rhubarb while the custard side is a more vanilla/creamy sweetness. sometimes they are rolled in dusting-sugar to stop them sticking together.
Oh, wow, Canadian here, just watched your American flag candy vid, I'm impressed with the techniques Enjoy nationalism day, from a friend north of the border on our nationalism day!
Honestly . You took such a simple channel idea and turned it into such a great channel. One of the best channels on youtube. You are so different in such a good way . Amazing job !
How does the melted sugar not leak out the corners of the metal bars during cooling? it doesn't seem like there is any rubber seal or anything? Is it just too viscous and therefore cools down too much to leak through ?
you can tell by the pouring of the liquid sugar that it is quite viscous. Combine that with the cooler temperature of the metal bars and you get a hardened outer layer so you don't have to worry about leaking out. Even if it does leak out, it'll cool on the cooler surface and it's easy to reincorporate back into the rest of the liquid sugar.
Gosh. These videos are highly addictive and relaxing. Have been binge-watching for some time now. I guess people do ask to hear you talk, because you have a very pleasant voice, are intelligent and have very interesting things to say. Please keep up with the amazing work.
Thank you so much for making these videos, they help me so much with my mental health issues, by just giving me something pleasing and pleasant to watch to help take my mind off things. I love the videos; KEEP IT UP!
Exactly. It's making murhinni. But it's so much easier, it's almost like cheating! Makes me want to give him some pointers, but gaffers have to have their secrets! It would be cool to learn some of his, too. Combining the two techniques could yield the most ridiculous results.
I used to watch this channel as a kid and always wanted to try make some of this stuff. I have come back to that desire and I think I might look into it. This video would've been one of the first videos I checked out, I saw it about 4 years ago
well it's a song included in fallout 4's radio station (and fallout 3 since they're the same) but it's not exactly a fallout song per se. More just an older song they threw in.
Amazingly entertaining candy making visuals, amazing commentary, FALLOUT 4 SOUNDTRACK!!!!! Y’all are easily one of the top 5 youtube channels on the whole platform.
I showed my gf your videos and we really enjoy watching them together and it has made us want to own our own candy shop together one day! Your videos are so wholesome and we appreciate your craft. Cant wait to try some of your candies! All the best!
I'm new here. I saw the banana and though "wow, that is an incredible talent". The rose, I'm lost for words. This is almost aggressively talented at this point. I mean my god, this would be like Monet finishing a painting before popping a back flip "tada" then walking off nonchalantly. Also I had a look on your website, a little practice and the rose is now looking insanely good.
They taste good too! Rose is an amazing taste in candy!

Normally amber if you don't take care.

Lofty Pursuits what do you do with the ends of the candy when you size it down
Mike Bruno the sell the giant end pieces as "unicorn droppings" people just buy the entire piece (I think)

Kitzy A As a Swedish guy who loves rhubarb crumble with vanilla custard, that flavour of sweets sounds absolutely delightful.
@Bauhauskiddo They are lovely - they are generally lozenge or sphere shaped, with the two flavours separated (a little like a yin-yang) the rhubarb side is quite acidic, and very distinctly tastes of rhubarb while the custard side is a more vanilla/creamy sweetness. sometimes they are rolled in dusting-sugar to stop them sticking together.
@Lofty Pursuits - I shall have to ask next time I am home! (If they let me in on the secret I will post it here)
Sherbet Lemons were changed to Lemon Drops in the American version of Harry Potter because sherbet lemons don't exist here.

How does the melted sugar not leak out the corners of the metal bars during cooling? it doesn't seem like there is any rubber seal or anything? Is it just too viscous and therefore cools down too much to leak through ?
Keelan Greenwood-Hallett the metal bars are cold (im guessing?) so it solidifies the outside of the candy just a bit
Its a cooled table
you can tell by the pouring of the liquid sugar that it is quite viscous. Combine that with the cooler temperature of the metal bars and you get a hardened outer layer so you don't have to worry about leaking out. Even if it does leak out, it'll cool on the cooler surface and it's easy to reincorporate back into the rest of the liquid sugar.

Thank you so much for making these videos, they help me so much with my mental health issues, by just giving me something pleasing and pleasant to watch to help take my mind off things. I love the videos; KEEP IT UP!
Came for the candy
Stayed for the poetry
Came for both
you should sell the imperfect candy and call it the mess jar
+Sarah Walker We call it Damifno
reminds me of when I used to work with glass Millefiori - just the sweet version, that you can touch and eat ;P
Exactly. It's making murhinni. But it's so much easier, it's almost like cheating! Makes me want to give him some pointers, but gaffers have to have their secrets! It would be cool to learn some of his, too. Combining the two techniques could yield the most ridiculous results.
Loved the cover of orange colored sky in the back !
I used to watch this channel as a kid and always wanted to try make some of this stuff. I have come back to that desire and I think I might look into it. This video would've been one of the first videos I checked out, I saw it about 4 years ago
he's so cute oh my god
Its kinda like making polymer clay sticks!!
Anybody notice that the music in the background music is from Fallout 4?
Not quite but yeah
well it's a song included in fallout 4's radio station (and fallout 3 since they're the same) but it's not exactly a fallout song per se. More just an older song they threw in.
Was wondering if anyone else would notice
Amazingly entertaining candy making visuals, amazing commentary, FALLOUT 4 SOUNDTRACK!!!!! Y’all are easily one of the top 5 youtube channels on the whole platform.
I showed my gf your videos and we really enjoy watching them together and it has made us want to own our own candy shop together one day! Your videos are so wholesome and we appreciate your craft. Cant wait to try some of your candies! All the best!
