John, Use a palm sander if you have one to vibrate the thin piece of plywood to get food to move.. it works good.. lol.. dont use sandpaper... just use the vibration on the plywood.. good luck.
I watched this on Saturday and bought the stuff Sunday and made Strawberry cheesecake bites- froze them and they have now been in my freeze dryer for about 15 hours! They are almost done- checking their weight every 2 hours now with only a couple gm loss every couple hours. I can’t wait to let my family try some! I DID already! The are AMAZING! I made banana pudding bites too: they finished a bit faster than the cheese cake bites, but I’ll just take them all out at the same time. I made 2 trays of each using the harvest right green silicone mold. Perfect size!! Thank you John for such wonderful ideas!!
Instead of water, try using white grape juice or unsweetened apple juice. It will enhance the flavor instead of weakening the flavor the way water would. Those of us who do a lot of canning use this method when water is called for. Kind of the same way we use broth/stock when canning veggies and meat, and for the same reasons. Water dilutes the taste. These look amazing, I don't have a freeze dryer yet, but I think just frozen these would be an amazing treat. Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us. I can't wait to order myself some silicone molds and make some treats. I just found your channel this morning and love all I have watched and have become a new subscriber. Blessings to you always ~SuzyJC-in-Pataskala-Ohio/USA_09.15.2022~
I made these and to say they came out amazing, is an understatement! My only issue is the no-bake cheesecake is now no where to be found. 🥺 I wish I bought more, when I had the opportunity!
Ok, I'm catching up on your videos today. :) I love seeing how you learned some good techniques. We'll try these in our backlog. Our machine came a week or so ago. We have a few test loads and lots of lessons learned.
I'm watching and wondering why you are letting your machine beep so long.... oops, that is MY machine beeping 😂😂😂 Can't wait to make these yummy treats!
@@JohnInBibs - The lemon juice is a wonderful idea. The lemon pie filling isn't lemony enough for me and lemon juice would be great. Either that or make up some lemon curd and use that. Lemon curd is what is used to make Lemon Meringue Pie.
I put the link for the wrappers in the description below the video, Amazon. Sorry I don't remember on the bags I shop around. packfreshusa.com discountmylarbags.com are a couple of my favorite.
Suggest with the plunger complete depressed, you put your empty tip into your lemon pie filling and pull the plunger back. The suction will pull the filling into your syringe, with no messy spooning it in and it running out of the tip.
@@JohnInBibs Oh so there is no internal gasket then. Awe, too bad, it would have been so easy. I’d be looking for one I could rig in there, LOL. I’m a never say die type person, where there is a will there is a way. Thank you for your videos.
So all of this were make using the Philadelphia cheesecake filling. When you were doing the cherry ones I thought I heard you say cream cheese, but I think it’s cheesecake filling right
John, is adding more lemon to make up for the water dilution really necessary when the Freeze Dryer takes out all the water. The flavor would be stronger in the first place because the water is gone. Or, does the added flavoring enhance the flavor after Freeze Drying it, or is it too much?
These were a process that I spent a lot of time creating. I believe the watering down took away too much flavor so adding that flavor back was just the trick. btw the lemon was my favorite!
LOL, If I remember correctly I misspoke and said cream cheese and meant to say Philadelphia Cheese Cake Filling (it is normally found near the Philadelphia Cream Cheese)

You really out did yourself, I think only someone who actually seen all the work that went into it would appreciate your efforts. Well done.

That is fantastic, I hope your family LOVES them!
John, you must have the patience of a saont! WOW!
I love your videos and creativity!
OMG...the amount of time and patience that is involved in these gifts is amazing...I hope you get your jars back. :)
Lol I am keeping for myself.
They have squeeze bottles at Wal mart that looks like it would work better than the syringe. Try the cooking section. They are about $1.00.
Those look absolutely stunning!! Yum!
I love this whole idea!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you

My kid is now asking to make these! They look soooo yummy.
Thank You

Oh those look so good! I’m so gonna have to make them! Great ideas!
I actually love this idea! Praying that I'll be able to get a FD soon!!
Thank you I will pray with you!
@@JohnInBibs Thank you :(
I'm watching and wondering why you are letting your machine beep so long.... oops, that is MY machine beeping 😂😂😂
Can't wait to make these yummy treats!
Well yum that sounds tasty!
LOVE this! I will definitely try this one!
Hope you like it!
Hey John, this looks fantastic. I wonder if thinning the lemon pie filling with lemon juice instead would prevent the loss of flavor?
Don't know, I didn't try that! The lemon was my favorite
Maybe half lemon juice, half water. Don't wanna get it too tart or too bland. Good idea though.

I love your videos so much I watch some of them several times. Where did you get the candy wrappers and the mylar bags from?
I put the link for the wrappers in the description below the video, Amazon. Sorry I don't remember on the bags I shop around. packfreshusa.com discountmylarbags.com are a couple of my favorite.
If you just use that and suck the liquid into it. You don't have to spoon fill it. Love your videos
Suggest with the plunger complete depressed, you put your empty tip into your lemon pie filling and pull the plunger back. The suction will pull the filling into your syringe, with no messy spooning it in and it running out of the tip.
Nice idea and of course it seems obvious to do it that way. Unfortunately a piping syringe has absolutely no suction power.

Amazing idea thank you for sharing
Thank you! 😊
Great video again John, really appreciate you!!!
Thanks!
yum!!!
I think I will make these they look so good. Also sent you a friend request on face book.
Thanks, these were kinda fun to make as well
John how do you come up with all this good stuff?
So all of this were make using the Philadelphia cheesecake filling. When you were doing the cherry ones I thought I heard you say cream cheese, but I think it’s cheesecake filling right
correct
Looks tasty and pretty. How long did they take in the freeze dryer?
I run all my loads 40+ hours.
@@JohnInBibs Thanks.

Where do you find the lucky leaf preamium pie filling?
Where did you get the wrappers? And what is the trade name of them? Also did you freeze dry in the mold or dump out the frozen and then freeze dry?
Wish you tell us how long it took in the FD.. Thanks 😊
John, i need your help. Could you PM about Mylar bags and stuff.
I'll do my best. Don't know how to pm on youtube but I am on facebook if you have it you can message me here: facebook.com/john.meyer.7982/
Where did you get those wrappers?
what did you use to package them in the foil?
I wrapped them by hand.
@@JohnInBibs but did u just buy candy foil or ??
@@wendylyndes1120 yes, I put a link in the description above for the stuff I used
Hey John what was in the cream cheese
LOL, If I remember correctly I misspoke and said cream cheese and meant to say Philadelphia Cheese Cake Filling (it is normally found near the Philadelphia Cream Cheese)
Where do you get the pretty wrappers?
