Every time a bug would hit the windshield on long trips my dad would say "he'll never have the guts to do that again" Longest running dad joke in our family.
I'm moving to Albany next month since my husband is being relocated there. Instead of looking for a new place to live I instantly checked to see if I would be close to your shop. Who has their priorities in check? This gal! :) and Happy Mother's Day to the funniest mom on youtube! Much love!
Started watching this channel a few days ago while I was sick and I think I've watched every video now lol. Love your dad, you guys have a great family. Think I'll be ordering some turtles soon! Tell your mom Happy Mothers Day from Chicago ❤️
I've watched every SINGLE UA-cam video that Hercules Candy has posted. It's been YEARS (I don't have cable) since I've had to wait for a new episode/video to "air" LOL. Notifications are now: ON.
We have a home treat business, and you all remind me of ourselves -- the funny, senseless conversations that just happen naturally as we are all in the kitchen working hard.
I ordered a half pound each of milk and dark chocolate turtles, to see which I like more. I can't make up my mind. I think you should start selling boxes of mixed - might I suggest in 10 lb. size?
Belatedly, but trick I do at home for the caramel pouring is a good large glass measuring cup, lightly cooking sprayed to keep things from getting sticky. Also, spray a spoon and that was my funnel and stick. Works really well. If it's cold out, give the measuring cup a bit of a warm up in the microwave to prolong caramel gooeyness.
Watching your turtle videos got me in the mood to make some for this past Christmas. I have a place here that sells those 5 pound blocks of caramel, my microwave has a caramel melting setting. I am hooked! So yummy and friends and family that I shared them with really enjoyed them! Thanks!
This IS the textbook. Timing is a great because this week I’m making turtles. Until now I wasn’t sure how much caramel to drop or even how to lay out the pecans. I’m glad this olden days video came across my stream. 👍🏻
our endcards have been updated, also the link to our website is in the description of all of our videos. Now feel free to spend a whole paycheck or two, we don't judge!
Whew. That smile. And your dad is a riot. Used to live in Buffalo...moved back home to Louisiana. Before these videos, you guys were NYs best kept candy secret LOL
no pecans or chocolate , just give me that dubbel boiler full of caramel! 😂😂😂 did I just said no chocolate?! Guess I did hahaha there is a first time for everything. 😂
My favorite dad joke that I have retold for my own kids as we pass a cemetery, "How many people do you think are dead there"? I would be like, I don't know maybe 500? My dad, "All of them"! lol
Craig I just watched a video of your Dad making peanut brittle. Your Mom (Terry) has the most amazing voice. She could easily have done voice work for narration in video, documentary, movie, etc. It looks like really hard work. I was sort of sad to hear that you nor your sisters were going to continue the family business. I guess we all need to do our own thing. Your probably going to be making movies in a few years and too important to talk to any of us.💖
speaking of the the three stooges!!!! JK. We had to stop watching them...our girls....well, the one thought she was Moe and her sisters were Curly and Larry. funny to watch, but her sisters didn't think it was so funny😂😂😂😂. Turtles look great!
Oh my good word!!! Are you serious?? As soon as you start delivering to 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦, I am definitely ordering those!! Caramel and pecans!!....🤤🤤🤤🤤...snack of champions AND they debuted on my birthday!!! Thank you so much for the honour!!!.....❤️💕❤️💕❤️
Craig do you have any videos of you making any candy or chocolate? it would be cool to see you on camera instead of behind it! have your parents teach you or something
i have a little trick for you. Dip the very bottom of your ladle in the liquid you transfer and it won't drip for a few seconds giving you the time to transfer without a mess ( a cook trick for sauces and soups ).
I love you guys making candy I love to watch you guys it's so cool I'm starting to get UA-cam videos to I use a treadle sewing machine it's pretty cool that's what I learned on when I was a little girl and I love it now I have my own treadle sewing machine it is a singer made in the early 1800s and I'm not giving it up for anything the only person is going to give you this my daughter and I'm going to teach her how to use it she wants to learn
do you guys get down time? here in NZ it's heading into winter, while you are heading into summer! I'm imagining you slow down in summer. hope you guys get a break...although I'm enjoying hanging out in your basement with you :-P
Hercules Candy good thing or bad thing? When will you take a vacation? I definitely appreciate what you guys do. Watching you guys is like pawn stars or something. Except candy is better than pawn shop stuff. Is the dude recording dads son? And max is a close family friend? Damn that's like a dream job tho. Obviously it's a commitment tho. But you guys make people happy. So you deserve to be happy.
Every time a bug would hit the windshield on long trips my dad would say "he'll never have the guts to do that again" Longest running dad joke in our family.
That's a good one, I'm sorry but I love bad jokes.
moemanda .......ours too.
Hahaha Thats excellent !!
Lolololol. My Dad would would say,
“What do you Think was the last thing to cross that bugs mind? His butt!”
Lol

BluGirl hehehe
BluGirl we can do the second part! 😆
Tyler Cochran Ha Ha 😆 I'm sure I've been called way worse things in my lifetime lol
@The Prodigy I anoint thee, "wheeeeeeew" !!!!
How very turtley of you.
I'm moving to Albany next month since my husband is being relocated there. Instead of looking for a new place to live I instantly checked to see if I would be close to your shop. Who has their priorities in check? This gal! :) and Happy Mother's Day to the funniest mom on youtube! Much love!
I think I would have done the same
After a marathon session of watching Hercules Candy videos I've decided that you and your folks have way too much fun!!
Don't ever quit!!!
So who else wants to know what Max said??? lol
%$#%^&&^%^*(((&^$
beth1412001 i do
beth1412001 he said"fuck im high"
He's said F@ckin turtles again
Sherry Hurd me
Max is as hot as that double boiler
HOTTER!!! ❤
I'm really enjoying all the videos Craig has been putting up. I love this families humor. ❤
Eileen Gray thanks so much!
There is something so mezmorizing about watching the candy be made. Love the humor too! Good videos!
Started watching this channel a few days ago while I was sick and I think I've watched every video now lol. Love your dad, you guys have a great family. Think I'll be ordering some turtles soon! Tell your mom Happy Mothers Day from Chicago ❤️
Why do I feel like the 2 men that make the turtles are hostages?
What a blessing to do what you love for a living
I've watched every SINGLE UA-cam video that Hercules Candy has posted. It's been YEARS (I don't have cable) since I've had to wait for a new episode/video to "air" LOL. Notifications are now: ON.
C-Dog. HAHAHA SEA DOG
Your Daddy uses what's on hand and he gets the job done that's all that matters .....it always looks beautifully editable in the end 💕💗
Oh man! Now I wonder what Max was saying not to put in the video!
I love that you document this stuff for future generations! And present sugar addicts 🤤
We have a home treat business, and you all remind me of ourselves -- the funny, senseless conversations that just happen naturally as we are all in the kitchen working hard.
I ordered a half pound each of milk and dark chocolate turtles, to see which I like more. I can't make up my mind. I think you should start selling boxes of mixed - might I suggest in 10 lb. size?
Is there such a thing as a white chocolate turtle?
Kevin Donohue 10lbs. 😂 and no we don't have a demand for it
You have no idea how many 10 lb. boxes I could eat... :)
I don't understand why people like white chocolate. I mean it's chocolate...but barely. Dark chocolate turtle is my dream candy.
Kevin Donohue I know you're fat😂
I enjoyed this, the banter, the candy making, can see the love put into the candy. :D Thanks for sharing.
How long does it take to clean everything up before you go upstairs for the night? Your whole family is hilarious. Thanks for the entertainment.
Barbara Cooper we're always cleaning up as we go throughout the day so we just clean up the table we're working at when we close up for the night

I enjoy watching your videos so much. They are so satisfying! Having Max is a plus!
Why do I love this channel so much
Lololo your family even watches the same stuff my family does!! Love it
I’ve ordered these twice and they make the best❤❤❤❤❤
Watching your turtle videos got me in the mood to make some for this past Christmas. I have a place here that sells those 5 pound blocks of caramel, my microwave has a caramel melting setting. I am hooked! So yummy and friends and family that I shared them with really enjoyed them! Thanks!
I love Dads dead pan way. Never excited, never bothered, just keeps on moving forwards.
This IS the textbook. Timing is a great because this week I’m making turtles. Until now I wasn’t sure how much caramel to drop or even how to lay out the pecans. I’m glad this olden days video came across my stream. 👍🏻
What did Max say? Tell him he can't have secrets with us! Lol😅
The "Shop" dropdown list should link to your store! So I can spend my paycheck on chocolate :P
our endcards have been updated, also the link to our website is in the description of all of our videos. Now feel free to spend a whole paycheck or two, we don't judge!
Whew. That smile. And your dad is a riot. Used to live in Buffalo...moved back home to Louisiana. Before these videos, you guys were NYs best kept candy secret LOL
no pecans or chocolate , just give me that dubbel boiler full of caramel! 😂😂😂 did I just said no chocolate?! Guess I did hahaha there is a first time for everything. 😂
No Chocolate... SACRILEDGE lol
Max is absolutely handsome! His demeanor is on point! Keep doin you Max
Immeadiately had to watch nature watch after this to see what all the fuss was about. Amazing! Thanks for enticing me with your referencing
My favorite dad joke that I have retold for my own kids as we pass a cemetery, "How many people do you think are dead there"? I would be like, I don't know maybe 500? My dad, "All of them"! lol
I actually just tried to order these and y'all are all sold out! I'll wait patiently until you make more 🙂
I love watching you make candy
Yum!!! I'm going to need to order some of these next!!
Emily Pascarella they're very popular!
I love the haircut Quick Steve!!
Will Hercules Candy continue with the next generation?
Diane Sullivan not with me or my siblings but I'm sure we'll pass it on to somebody
How do your parents feel about that?
Hercules Candy how many siblings are there?
siblings are Craig his twin sister Kara *cara* and then another sister who's name I've forgotten
Diane, Max is basically a son and he's learning the trade so...
Craig I just watched a video of your Dad making peanut brittle. Your Mom (Terry) has the most amazing voice. She could easily have done voice work for narration in video, documentary, movie, etc.
It looks like really hard work. I was sort of sad to hear that you nor your sisters were going to continue the family business. I guess we all need to do our own thing. Your probably going to be making movies in a few years and too important to talk to any of us.💖
speaking of the the three stooges!!!! JK. We had to stop watching them...our girls....well, the one thought she was Moe and her sisters were Curly and Larry. funny to watch, but her sisters didn't think it was so funny😂😂😂😂. Turtles look great!
but the burning question is: is this the new turtle method staying?
rosie4queen probably since we have to make more now than we ever used to
I love the sense of humor. Awesome
"Well this is weird.... don't put this in the video but.. PSYCH!" hahahahaha
Literally love your videos!
I just want bubble tea straw and that caramel
Hello from Burlington Vermont! Love your channel!
Hello from East Syracuse NY, and thank you!
Hi from Edinburgh in Scotland. You guys are amazing I’m loving the videos so much. Lovely family xx
Oh my good word!!! Are you serious?? As soon as you start delivering to 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦, I am definitely ordering those!! Caramel and pecans!!....🤤🤤🤤🤤...snack of champions AND they debuted on my birthday!!! Thank you so much for the honour!!!.....❤️💕❤️💕❤️
“Oh a weisenheimmer”. “Why I oughta”
Your dad's laugh kills me.
This s supposed to be a small batch?
Thank you so much. I love watching these.
It was a double batch...
Craig do you have any videos of you making any candy or chocolate? it would be cool to see you on camera instead of behind it! have your parents teach you or something
purplejade01 we did a livestream on the no Egg craig channel where I was cutting caramel
I just ordered some of those and sea salt caramels and can't wait till they arrive!
YUM! YUM! EAT 'EM UP!!!
i have a little trick for you. Dip the very bottom of your ladle in the liquid you transfer and it won't drip for a few seconds giving you the time to transfer without a mess ( a cook trick for sauces and soups ).
You guys are too cute, this video just made my day!
Yeah, turtles thank you
You are just being mean and tormenting us with the turtle making! I wanted to see them being covered. :D
they do spread but that just gives you a more thin layer of caramel. I make these at Christmas but I would like to find a good place to buy them.
This candy is my weakness!
My foot massage has something to say about that
Yay! I've only been asking for Turtles for like ever lol
One question, what made you guys want to start making chocolate and candy?
It's been in our family since 1910
the question is what did max say
Is there anything such as a heatproof piping bag? Seems that would give you more control. Love me some turtles!
Steve: www.amazon.com/Fat-Daddios-13-Inch-Silicone-Pastry/dp/B004M6KKAI
was there ever an update of how well this new method worked?
Hey Craig, I've noticed an audio interference when you're around that area, near the marble table
2017 talking about 3 stooges and vhs?!?! what dimension is this?
So much for the diet I started yesterday... Those look amazing!
The three stooges...the original improv. I love it!
I love you guys making candy I love to watch you guys it's so cool I'm starting to get UA-cam videos to I use a treadle sewing machine it's pretty cool that's what I learned on when I was a little girl and I love it now I have my own treadle sewing machine it is a singer made in the early 1800s and I'm not giving it up for anything the only person is going to give you this my daughter and I'm going to teach her how to use it she wants to learn
Here's a dad joke: Your mother asked me the other day where I got so much candy. I told her I always have a few Twix up my sleeve.
How do you make your caramel
I have a question. Are your tables heated so the chocolate and everything stays warm while you're working with it.
No momdre? I demand momdre in this video... 😝
Favorite Dad joke, birthdays are good for you, the more you have the longer you live. 🤣
Yet more evidence that quantity conversation is not better than quality.
The best Dad joke in our family,
A house walks into a bar.
and the barman says.
Why the long face!
Elizabeth Van Der Syde *horse
Hercules Candy LOL
You guys are an awesome family. Where in the north is this candy being made?
He said : I just farted
this video got me to place a order. cant wait to try them
Y'all need to watch Mystery science theater 3000
How long would it take to ship to Maryland or Washington DC
Looks delish, but wish you would show the end product!
The. Aztec calendar only has 20 days per month.
do you guys get down time? here in NZ it's heading into winter, while you are heading into summer! I'm imagining you slow down in summer. hope you guys get a break...although I'm enjoying hanging out in your basement with you :-P
Louisa Vevers mom usually takes 2-3 days off in the summer and dad usually works 6 days a week in the summer
Hercules Candy good thing or bad thing? When will you take a vacation? I definitely appreciate what you guys do. Watching you guys is like pawn stars or something. Except candy is better than pawn shop stuff. Is the dude recording dads son? And max is a close family friend? Damn that's like a dream job tho. Obviously it's a commitment tho. But you guys make people happy. So you deserve to be happy.
I had a teacher once in High School that said URL as “earl”. I guess she didn’t realise that it was an abbreviation.
Just noticed the names on the chocolate vats - Lucy and Ethel. LOL!
Why is there a fence around the cemetery........... people are dying to get in hahahaha that's my favorite one n gets em every time
stacie McTeague my dad used to say, look ,the dead centre of town
Is that caramel bought in bulk?
0:50 So what was weird that you couldn't put in this video? :)
Both Mom and Dad got their hair cut...
I think you should use a sheet pan, put the nuts on in one layer then put the caramel on top.
Try a 1 or 2 quart pot to fill your funnel.
Steve is one handsome silver fox! Bowchickawowow
Caramel, Pecans and chocolate its like Christmas morning!! lol
Wow! I LOVE Red Green!!!
Did you all ever use plastic bottles to put the chocolate or the carmel on the turtles.
Where does Craig work?
Max looks a little zoned out in this video..Those mounds (2) took him the whole video to do 😂
