+Trill tho A nicer compliment I have never heard. Baby's love me, but I never knew my voice alone could calm them.

Lofty Pursuits she is watching this now . I can actually rest it's amazing!!

+Trill tho You made my day.

issa kween congratulations on the baby

Congratulations! Those first couple months are hell. I hope you're sleeping better now. I wish I had known about this channel when my kiddos were infants, it would have gotten me through a lot of sleepless nights.

Yah me too. But i still want a intact tongue. Hot candy

Emily You are not alone

no

Your brain tricks u into thinking that it is a big piece of Taffy :-D

Emily nope lol

Me too.

same

Elizabeth Toner same

+Morgan Eastick Just for the USA sadly. I need to update the site. The international shipping is still fairly new to us.

Ah damn. Still buying some anyway

they do custom orders. dooo eeettttt!

I do love what we do.

Me too!

+Larry Bundy Jr Taffy pullers were not invented, they were born. I have a staff of them. You'd have a hook, or failing that two people pulling taffy from each other making taffy with hands that had been buttered for better roasting against the hot candy. Cutting on the other hand was done with the Knife, scissors or a Kiss Knocker or measured guillotine cutter (That looks a lot like a giant cigar cutter) We have these two tools in our shop, but we don't use them.

+O2BSoLucky we just make hard candies at this point. I love the contact of modern technology like KZfaq and Victorian candy making. It makes me smile.

Rasta fire*

Unicorn droppings.

one video ... I'll never live it down. the other 20 or so I think I did a better job with ;)

+Lofty Pursuits Haha been watching the odd video of yours for the past few days and this is the first time I noticed it. It's ok, I forgive you.

+Lofty Pursuits the logo and camera angles I think could be improved.... Otherwise GREAT JOB

bearly! its so distracting!

+prissylou1217 I agree, it was a test. I only put the web site in the first 5 and last 5 seconds of most of the videos. But in those videos I have gotten dozens of posts asking where to buy the candy. I have the "i" link in the corner, text and speech at the end of the video, and the website at the start and end. Still I get tons of questions about where these candies are available. This was sort of a test to see if this solved the issue. I do agree, I think I over did it. Look at our other videos and see how I've done it in the past, and read the comments. I never thought I had to be as obvious as I clearly have to be. :)

Sorry for liking to see the candy change colors when they pull it. It's definitely in the way. It covers their hands more than once while they are handling the candy.

+Raven Bug same i got very annoyed by the logo

Yep....

Satanface Hyena when she is pulling the candy it's literally covering the hook lol

Al Sheepshorts watermarks don't have to be opaque. That's why it's called a WATERmark, it's supposed to be somewhat transparent.

anamsolano222 same thing

ii ll, I love your profile picture!

all the sugar can be reused in candy making!

+Rucha I'm pretty sure it can't. If you try to melt that down again, it won't come out the same way. They sell the leftovers the way they are

sorry, cool

+Big Time Butter Baron It can be.

For the table, if you are making coffee candy you should of course use a coffee table. Glass is a terrible surface, you need to use a think table of steel. As for our recipes ... well there are some secrets we need to keep. :)

We bag them and sell them in the store under the name Unicorn Droppings. we are thinking of starting to sell these on-line.

+Karen Kurby Preference, mostly how hot the candy is. The twists moves the heat around more to even out the temperature faster.

+Naoki Mimi I should have said that :) They are the same kind of coffee that they make Kaluah out of.

+Lofty Pursuits Nice! Kahlua is super good.

+Naoki Mimi I'd love to get these, what's kaluah?

+susan blue Kaluah is coffee flavored liquor. Its very sweet and creamy. But its alcohol too, so beware that if you drank a lot of it, you will get drunk. When I was a little kid, I did not know that and I found a bottle of it in my parents cabinet and me and my sister started drinking it and it was so good that we kept drinking it and we got drunk!

That’s not him in there, that’s why.

We've been working on that. I'm not sure that we can deal with certification for organic.

id also really like to see you guys use the old equipment

+Jessica Guo We're going to post a video on our 1800's Humbug cutter shortly.

cant wait

oh, that is very good. I never thought to calculate it out like that.

Lofty Pursuits some more back of the napkin calculation reveals that since the final candy is say ~1/2in in diameter and there are three hundred sextillion strand in there each strand in the final candy is about 10^-13in across, or about the same size as a single electron! that is mighty tiny.

I used to do specious math in college. I am glad you still do.

white food coloring is titanium oxide... not something I want to eat. pulling also traps air bubbles and provides more surface area for flavor transfer. The candy is not here just for looks, but tastes better when it is pulled.

+Lofty Pursuits sent my email:)

+Matthew Dieck product is there, last one, no photo.

AH, Thank you! I didn't see them. So sorry for wasting your time! Your videos are always fascinating, btw. Thank you for sharing this process with those of us who can't make it down to Florida just yet.

+Luv2dance902 Temp of the candy. The heating table is quite uncomfortable to touch with your bare hands, but you don't really touch it directly making the candy. The gloves make it tolerable, but its hot enough that not everyone can do this work. No hotter than what a fry cook deals with, but then again, not everyone can take the heat of a fryer.

+shivani patel Yes you can. Http://www.pd.net . We look forward to hearing from you.

+Lofty Pursuits Oh man! Can't wait to get candy for the holidays!

Carlos Gomez I felt it was sort of assumed. Each image matches it's flavor.

We sell it in the store under the name "Unicorn Droppings"

Mary Udomah they literally said it in the video tho...

Leia Phillip Moriarty Yeah, I know. I wrote it before they said so. Woopse.

+Katelynn Seballos Absolutely.

I think it's called a stove

+Insight Phantom cool

+Insight Phantom are u being sarcastic or is that what they actually melt the sugar on?
