To be fair, people watching these types of videos probably already have some idea on how it's done. There are SO MANY of these types of videos on KZfaq. And most of this is "just watch the video and find out" type stuff (like how amber candy becomes white).

Came here to say this when I recognized the song "Fernando." 😂

You know I really thought it was going to be easy and fun. This may have been one of the more difficult things and I'm still not completely happy with how it came out, but it came out. And it came out before mother's Day

@@LoftyPursuits I never in this world would have thought it would be _easy_ to work that many appropriate palindromes in! I salute your efforts, and even though it doesn't match your aspirations to perfection, it's pretty darned good.

A master of the craft wouldn't have to worry about if the M is upside down because they weren't paying attention. A master would also have evenly shaped rods of candy to break.

Cool, I never knew that ! I will have to tell my grandsons. They love Weird Al.And pelandromes.

I always like Super Trouper. But I have used one, (Stage follow spot.) steve

Another thing you've never had is a proper grammar lesson. A period or 2 would go a long way.

Yesssss I TOTALLY agree

My grandson has a couple T shirts that say that. And a large photo of a cat in a taco !! Blessings from California. 🌮 🐈

Ah yes, Ken russell. A very good yoyo champ. And apparently a good politician in miami. He just left office a few months ago.

Hey, an Attorney Woo reference!

Since brexit we've been unable to ship to the uk. That may actually be changing soon so please keep your eyes open. We got approved for a new system just today and it will probably be a few weeks before we see if it can work or not.

If something doesn't let you do what you want, it's probably because it can't do it.

Why? That's such a basic flavor for hard candy and far over done.

@@Dyanosis who makes a vanilla hard candy?? People have different likes and dislikes. I like vanilla. Cherry is just as basic as a flavor. People like different things

If you were an internet expert as you claim to be, you would know that malic acid, due to its low melting point, is a terrible acid to use with hard candy. That candy is literally 310 degrees F. Even when it "cools", it still wouldn't be cool enough to add in the malic acid. Therefore, you need an acid that is more sturdy/has a higher melting point so it doesn't do more harm than good. It's like figuring out when to add milk to a dish - if you add it while the dish is hot, your milk can curdle. But if you add it later (or add it before you heat everything up) then it'll incorporate better.

Brexit. Sorry

@@LoftyPursuitsI hate brexit... I don't even know what it was... I suppose it was a mess. I guess its going to be harder to get hold of some of your sweets then. Its fine.

Yeah. It couldve been like the fear of long words. Perfectly fitting

palindrome (n.) "line that reads the same backward and forward," 1620s, from Greek palindromos "a recurrence," literally "a running back," from palin "again, back" (from PIE *kwle-i-, from root *kwel- (1) "move round," with notion of "revolving;" see cycle (n.)) + dromos "a running" (see dromedary). Related: Palindromic. It's a massive waste of potential when people try to make something it's not.

Good Etymology, still could be more.

No need for a science channel. He literally explains it in the simplest form in the video. As the candy stretches, it incorporates and traps air inside, which causes it to turn white. After they remove it from the hook, you can see how much more "airy" the candy looks. This same technique, because of the effect of air, is how you can turn red into pink, blue into cyan, etc.

@@Dyanosis Yes he explains that every time he does it but as I said the color change starts on the very first stretch, before any air is folded in. Further the candy develops chatoyance as it stretches' which doesn't seem to be explained by air.

Salon alaikum have are you calling me candy

What swings? The swings to actually break the candy rope? Why would he need a lot of weight? The candy, when it gets pulled like that, is very brittle and breaks pretty easily.

The spoons are made of wood.

@@LoftyPursuits thats actually awesome, probably some generational flavor 😁

@@seadffsa it has too ends, a thin one that can stir tiny amounts of food coloring in and a big one for large areas. The traditional tool is a tongue depressor or a new, clean Popsicle stick. Do many people ask that we have a "spoons are made of wood" short coming out. In our anniversary loot box we gave away wooden spoon engraved with that quote

@@LoftyPursuits thats really cool, cant wait to see
