Hey Matt, thanks. I need this for my science fair!!!!
You are welcome!! Let me know how it goes. :) :)
@Charlotte Black what? Lmao
Blackpink in your area 😂❤

@Saniyah Steber Cool!
I’m gonna try this over the weekend! Looks delicious
Good luck!
Amazing!! I was originally looking for geode macaron recipes, but everyone seems to order their sugar crystals online and I really want to make my own. Thank you for this!!
You are very welcome, Rocio! :)
Rock candy is a childhood favor!!! Haha I love how you added the disclaimer at the end, as a kid I always wanted to make them 😆 Great video!
Thank you! Yeah I loved it growing up as well.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt You two are so cute together, please do a collab!
@@inthekitchenwithmatt if it sticks to the bottom you can set the container in hot water until you can get it unstuck
hi Matt it would drive me crazy to make one of these cuz im not a patient parson
lol :)
Lol XD!!!
The Twin Manokits haha 😆
This is me I am not patient 😆
It grows kinda fast on the 2nd day mine was looking pretty big
Growing up I had an Aunt and Cousin that use to make these a good bit. Was sort of "Their Project" to do together especially around the holidays. I was so envious of them but fortunately they usually made enough to share when I would visit. Haven't thought about making these in years. Might be a good project for the grandkids one day.
That is awesome J. Yes might just be a good project to do with the grandkids! :)
Excellent job Matt..thx for sharing..they look great👏👍
Thank you! :)
Great job! Love the information!
I am trying to do a side job of making candy! Not sure of what kind of candy yet!? I will try different kinds! Thanks for the advice!!!!🍭🍬🍫🍡
Thank you so much Sharon!! Go for it! A side job making candy would be awesome! :) :)
Hey mat I wanted to make this for so long and they turned out great your videos are so well explain so I just described to you, nice video!
Thank you! Glad you made them and were successful! :) :)
im so glad i found this! i had a recipe but i had now idea what things should look like this will help tons! i never realized how much work went into these lil suckers
Glad you found it too! :) Yeah, they take a bit of work and time, haha.
Awesome! My kid will definitely love this 💯 Thanks Matt! Keep it up!😊
Thank you!! You are welcome!
I've never had rock candy in my entire life so far, so I'm super exited to try this

You are welcome! :)
Looks great!
Thank you!
Thank you Matt i really need this for my little sisters brithday!♥♥
You are very welcome! :)
Thanks matt it cool😍
You are very welcome! :)
Thanks for this i was craving rock candy for Weeks and I couldn’t find it anywhere
You are very welcome!
I am excited to make this myself
Awesome!
thanks vary helpful
You are welcome!
Thank you so much! I've tried watching many videos for good instructions on how to make this candy, but none had the measurements or were helpful. Great for my science project I'm cramming that's due in a week... Also amazing how you reply back to everyone in the comments. I was trying to do that in all the other videos I watched to try and help lol.
You are very welcome!! Have fun making it! If you are doing it for a Science experiment, I recommend doing a few variations. You could also put some in complete dark, like in a pantry, and then others put on the window sil in the direct light. And maybe another jar with candy in it in at normal house light. So you can see how light plays a role if any. Maybe try one with a stick and another with a string and see how the crystals grow. Lots of fun things you can do in the name of science with this.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt Oh wow you've got all the ideas! I wouldn't have though of all that. I need to buy some more sugar and go ahead and do that. Thank you so much for the help!
@@ardengrey7 You are welcome! Have fun, and let me know how it goes.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt I will!
@@inthekitchenwithmatt hey sorry I forgot to tell you how it went, but it went really well! I got a 91 just because I didn't have variables listed
I made it it taates amaizing
Glad you made it!! :)
I tried it its great!
Awesome!! Glad you tried it.
Can’t wait to do this with my kiddo this weekend!
Awesome! Have fun!
Thanks, now I will get an A+ on science, it was an assignment
So awesome! You are welcome. :) :)
Did you get a A+
MOOSA GHANSH yesss siirrr

@@cocotoco9716 i’m a bit late too respond but i got a f lol
Matt - Matt - Matt You are hitting my sweet tooth right and left - waiting for the next candy to explode in the mouth. Thanks for the recipe !
hahaha Jim! Thanks! Glad you liked it. You are very welcome.
Ty Matt this will hopefully help with my friends candy/sweets business
You are welcome!!
Thanks for sharing this recipe! I’m trying to learn some new candies to make for Easter this year. I may have to try this. Thank you for teaching me something new! I make cooking videos too! It’s a pleasure to learn from other talented creators like you! I hope we can learn more from each other!
You are welcome!
yes this definitely reminds me of being a kid. esp on school field trips, we end up at that gift shop and rock candy was always the most affordable.
Awesome!!
Omg yeah!! My first time was at the zoo in kindergarten and we got rock candy from the little store.
hi matt thank you so much for this video! i was wondering, can you put more than one skewer in the sugar solution? or will affect the growth of the candy?
hi there! You are very welcome. It depends on how large of a container you use. If you use like a large pot you can space them out, but in the jars or glasses like I showed in the video, then no, that is too close together. :) Good luck, let me know how it turns out.
thank you so much !
@@nadiya4011 You are welcome!
Hey how do you make a large qty? Can we reuse the mixture for another rock candy?
Hello! You can reheat the liquid and reuse it. :) :)
@@inthekitchenwithmatt hello matt I was using your way but is their any way it can work faster
@@laithmoustafa6938 Hello, no, not really, every way is pretty much like this. You can't rush it.
The longer you cook the liquid the faster they work I boil mine for 15 mins , takes 1-2 days! The more water evaporates, faster working time! I hope I explained that right! Enjoy!!
Thanks very good video!
You are welcome!
Lovely
Thank you!!
Thank you so much, this turned out amazing! And I'm normally horrible at making candy/cakes 😂
You are very welcome! So glad your experiment worked! These types of food science projects/recipes don't always turn out correctly the first time, but happy you were successful.
Hey，Matt，I was just wondering can you put it in the fridge to fast the proces？
Hi Li, no, don't put it in the fridge, it needs to be at room temperature. :)
Can it be covered?
@@SSCShortChannel the top of the jar/container you mean? yes you can put a covering over it, to prevent bugs and such from possibly getting in there.
Thanks so much this really helped
You are very welcome! :) Glad it was helpful.
Very cool! Awesome! I love it!!
Thank you!
walter white
Jesse, let's cook!
why is he checking if the water was wet tho 😶
He mentioned the stick😂😂
I mean he ment the stick not the water😂😂😂
Thanks matt that was for my grandmother I miss her so much
You are welcome! :)
Thankyou Matt it's so beutifull..and I'll show to my grandchild....
You are very welcome! :)
is it funny that I'm watching this for school during the pandemic.
No funny at all! :) :) Great way to spend your time, haha.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt Yeah it was supposed to be a experiment, but my mom said no because she didnt want to waste sugar -_- and then get sick for eating too much sugar :{
@@scarycarey1736 Ahh, sorry to hear that! :)
@@inthekitchenwithmatt yeah :{
Jokes on you I’m watching this in school
For the ones that stick to the jar and cannot come out... take them and put them into a hot water bath (hot tap water) with the water coming up to about an inch from the top and in about 5 minutes they will slide right out. Yes you will have a huge jar shaped candy but you can chip it down to a smaller size.
Yep! That is exactly what I do. :)
I really liked it,your way of explaining is good
Thank you!!
Thank u so much for this recipe!
My beauty will be really happy)
You are welcome!
Thank you! Im making this as a favor and decoration for my daughters 12th birthday...Godzilla themed

Very neat thank you!!! I laughed hysterically when you said 5-7 "DAYS". Lol, I just knew you were going to say minutes or hours even. 🤣 I will still make. But so glad I watched in its entirety first.
Thank you! Yeah unfortunately you can't rush the science of this. It just takes a long time for the crystals to grow properly. :) Glad you watched the whole thing!
Thaks
You are welcome!

The at looks 😋yum
Thanks!
Wow
Thanks!
Thank you so much! I am doing this while sick at home.
You are very welcome! :) I hope you get better soon!
@@inthekitchenwithmatt can you reuse the liquid?
@@mockeyfan4244 You can! But you need to add one more cup of sugar to it when you reheat it, to make up for the sugar that was used to make the crystals, otherwise, it won't be diluted enough. You can also use the liquid in other things like as a base for drinks, it is essentially a simple syrup.
@@inthekitchenwithmatt Thanks!
@@mockeyfan4244 You are welcome!
Finally I can cure my cravings everyday
Awesome!!
THANKYOU I have been meaning to try this perfect recipe
You are welcome! :)
I also have a question when I tried it seems all the crystals are at the bottom of the jar instead of the stick anyway to prevent that is it because the stick was to close to the Bottom of the jar?
@@Emily_urgle hi there Leah, yeah that can happen a lot. Yes, make sure they stick isn't too close to the bottom. Also, make sure you heat the jar up first with hot water before adding the mixture to it. Rock candy while easy to make can be a bit finicky. But you were successful in getting sugar crystals to grow, which means part of the experiment worked! :)
Ok thank you
@@Emily_urgle You are welcome!
Matt your the best
Thanks!
thank u for the video ...
You are welcome! :)
Wow❤
Thanks!
Omg i tried this is so works cx
So glad you tried it and liked it!
Amezingggg.... 🥰
Thank you!
Woow nice
Thanks!!
Wow👏
Thank you!
Funny anecdote I feel you may enjoy: found this video because my husband didn't think rock candy grows so I had to prove it. He's mind blown currently XD.
Thank you for making this video. He's said multiple times that we're absolutely making rock candy now and I'll take any excuse for rock candy XD.
hahaha, that is awesome! Have fun and let me know how it turns out.
You are so awesome. Thanks you for sharing this video. Ready made is so expensive and I make a lot of teats your video has saved me a lot of money.
2 questions..... Can I add white food coloring to make my colors pop more and can white only be used?
Thank you so much, Shalonte! I have never tried white food coloring, only the classic colors. I imagine that color would be fine.
Hey Matt! Thanks, I needed this for my Science Project. (In Which Environment Does Rock Candy Grow Best?)
You are welcome!! I am not sure, but I assume a dryer environment works better than one with lots of humidity, but I don't know for sure. It grows great here in Phoenix, AZ which is hot and dry climate.
I love rock candy
Same!
Think you 😀😀😀😀😀😀
You are welcome!
