I have work at 6am with no business being on your channel this late BUT i love watching your work!!! You're so informative and these treats are beautiful Ro!!!🙌🙌👑
Ro , your creativity and talent is off-the-charts!! Can’t wait to make these. Haven’t attempted the 411 yet, but I’m going to give it a go. Thank you!! ❤
Thank you for this video🙏🏼. I seen your post on Instagram & I was so excited to try these! Your videos have helped me so much with candi dipping. Thank you❤🤗
Hii girl hope you doing good but I just can’t stop failing to make candied grapes/ pineapples. I’m making candied grapes, and my candy thermometer was stuck at 280 degrees for a long time and its cap exploded? 😭 Anyways when it reached 300 I removed it and added in Anna Clark’s bright white food coloring gel, as soon as I added that the mixture began to get sticky and after I added Betty cookers red gel food coloring, I was only able to dip 3 grapes before the whole thing crystallized and I tried dipping my frozen pineapples before the grapes but they just wouldn’t stick to the mixture for some reason? I would dip it in and nothing would stick. I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong please help me girl idk if it’s my gel food colorings or what 🙏 I use the same flavorings as you use and the same candy thermometer.
I do this exact procedure and my grapes Sf pineapples come out great! But some times, when I pull them out of the freezer, they look like they’ve been melting. I make sure it’s not humid in the house and I put the fruit straight into the fridge after dipping. What could I possibly be doing wrong? Dipping at the wrong temp maybe? I hate that the jolly rancher dust looks wet.
Wow this is amazing Thankyou so much for this, I was just taking the entire fruit roll up and slapping it over on top and just folding it on the back lol this looks so much better! 😂
Do you reheat the mixture while dipping? Everytime I make these my pineapples start defrosting before I can get done and the candy won't stick. I've had to thrown them back in the freezer for a minute and keep my mixture warm while I waited it's a pain in the ass.
Hi! I have a question! I made the cracked pineapples using your 411 recipe as well as the grapes. The grapes held up and tasted better than the pineapples. I froze them overnight before using and kept in the freezer in an airtight container but it started to break down and the pineapple was soggy , what did i do wrong?
When you remove your pineapples from the freezer, they will not last no longer than a couple hours so when you serve this particular dessert, they should be ate within the time they are served because they will start breaking down within 24 hours. There’s no other way to dip pineapples sauce because they were tear off into the candy mixture so you have to freeze down in order to get The candy coating on them now what I prefer is that when you do the pineapples you can coat them with the candy topping and they will last longer but if you’re only dipping them in a solid color and you remove them from the freezer, they will begin to break down in melt because of the pineapples will start to come to room temperature And I’m sure everyone have that experience because water/juice breaks down sugar.
Any time❤️ the shelflife of these pineapples both ways are very short, and I explain in a few of my Kandi fruit videos that when you’re dipping candy, fruit know that it’s a fresh fruit that’s dip in a hot mixture, and they don’t last no longer than 24 to 48 hours by placing them in the freezer you’re keeping the candy coated for just a short period of time because when it comes to room temperature, it will start to break down so when given to the customer they need to enjoy it within the 24 hour. Now if it has a candy coating like the crush candy, or if it’s wrapped in the fruit roll up, it’s a better chance that they will last up to a week or two and that’s with them being fully covered and I like those better than just plain, and nothing coded on top so I prefer the coding because they last longer
I’ve been trying to do the pineapples and grapes but my problem is they become to sticky and the candy melts away after a few hours. How do I prefect that and fix it?
I have a question so I follow ur recipe the 2 1 1 and after 1 minute my mixture starts to get hard I only is 2 drops of the gel color and a lil bit of white 😩 I don’t know how to keep it from gettin hard without having to keep reheating it
I would like to say I love all your work, ❤ I have a question, I was wondering wath would you charge for your candy pineapple, ? I love all of your videos, keep up the beautiful work ❤ thank you for all the tips
They’re not meant to leave out for a long period time. You have to have your packaging, ready and package them to go in the freezer. If they stay out for a couple hours they will begin to break down.
Hi Ro, I I have tried this twice and I can get the candy over half the pineapples but I cant get the other half covered. What advice can you provide? Thank you I LOVE your videos.
So there is another pineapple video on my channel where I’m dipping one side of the pineapples and then the other side if you check out that video that will be another technique that you can do
Can we have a conversation in regard to preserving once you freeze do you advise customers to leave out for so long then eat or eat them frozen? Do you ever store in fridge and I am learning best is to freeze and they last a week but if a customer puts in fridge how long do you advised before they are bad??
I recommend that once a customer receives this particular treat. If they’re not ready to enjoy them they should place them in the freezer placing them in the refrigerator will potentially cause them to break down. If a customer is ready to enjoy them and they do not like to eat them frozen then they should take them out 10 to 15 minutes to enjoy them
No you don’t but if it’s hot and humid in the house you may want to put them in the freezer until you wrap the next one but I didn’t have to keep them in the freezer while I wrap mines
For your gas stove I will cook it between five and six. Just make sure it’s not too high. Where is burning too fast just make sure you’re using a candy thermometer and it reaches 300°
Yes absolutely you’ll just have to cut part of it off because if you use the full long strip, it’ll overlap and you wanted to be even. But because I did this video a while back, I got videos already done showing that way. I just got around to uploading them. I had a death in the family and I hadn’t had a chance to upload my videos so you’ll be seeing them coming, so stay tune.
That does play a factor and make sure you’re not cooking your mixture too fast and also check your candy thermometer because if the mixture is too brown, like dark brown and you add color, it won’t come out as vibrant as the color you’re looking for
Hi honey! I have a huge upcoming order for a graduation party with 200 chocolate covered strawberries and chocolate bark and I’m having the hardest time with my pricing. I don’t want to be charging to less and not make a profit but I’m also scared to charge too much Could you please PM me your tips and advice I’d greatly appreciate it! ❣️

Beautiful amazing desserts!
Ro , your creativity and talent is off-the-charts!! Can’t wait to make these. Haven’t attempted the 411 yet, but I’m going to give it a go. Thank you!! ❤
Hey Ro! Have you ever wrapped the pineapple with the fruit roll up after it was frozen and just dipped it in a clear mixture with a flavor? Slap👏🏽
Yes I have! I’m addicted!!! Both ways are GREAT!!!❤️☺️
What kind of clear mixture ?
Can we get a video of this method?
@@Bee-Kind-BakerI think her original clear dipping mix without the coloring & flavoring. Or maybe with the flavoring.
@@JLA830 , thank you

Hi! I have a question! I made the cracked pineapples using your 411 recipe as well as the grapes. The grapes held up and tasted better than the pineapples. I froze them overnight before using and kept in the freezer in an airtight container but it started to break down and the pineapple was soggy , what did i do wrong?
Didn’t let it boil long enough
Did u dry them ?
@@IAMDIANNAMARIE that could’ve been it i didn’t properly get all the juice out of them !
@@IAMDIANNAMARIE i did the 411 recipe at 250 degrees i added the flavor then took off at 300 but i could’ve let it cook too fast as well!

🙋🏾♀️Ro! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
can I make candy without corn syrup? To hard to find corn syrup in here
Hello! I was wondering what type of pan exactly that is and where I can buy it! Beautiful work!
What is this called? Looks delish
I’ve been trying to do the pineapples and grapes but my problem is they become to sticky and the candy melts away after a few hours. How do I prefect that and fix it?
I have a question so I follow ur recipe the 2 1 1 and after 1 minute my mixture starts to get hard I only is 2 drops of the gel color and a lil bit of white 😩 I don’t know how to keep it from gettin hard without having to keep reheating it
You may be using the wrong brand food coloring that could be causing your mixture to seize quickly
love this video!!!! do you offer classes?
Thank you!❤️ yes, I do at this time I don’t have any classes scheduled.
@@YourSweetConnection your welcome well i be tuned in for those classes
Hey Ro where did you get the pot ?
I would like to say I love all your work, ❤ I have a question, I was wondering wath would you charge for your candy pineapple, ? I love all of your videos, keep up the beautiful work ❤ thank you for all the tips
Heyy lovely!! Do you have any halloween candied fruit ideas or suggestions on what to sell for halloween
Hey. Can you wrap the pineapples first then freeze them & dip them?
Please how do you keep them from melting? When I get ready to package them the candy is already coming off.
They’re not meant to leave out for a long period time. You have to have your packaging, ready and package them to go in the freezer. If they stay out for a couple hours they will begin to break down.
How long will these last in the freezer? And the candy grapes ?
What if I don’t have white coloring can I do it with just the color and thank you so much for sharing. This really helped me.
Yes you can! But the color won’t be as vibrant when you don’t use the white coloring it’ll be more transparent
Ohhh makes sense perfect thank you again queen ❤
u should make an ASMR video of u eating ur candied fruits (candied grapes, pineapples, etc.)
Hi Ro, I I have tried this twice and I can get the candy over half the pineapples but I cant get the other half covered. What advice can you provide? Thank you I LOVE your videos.
So there is another pineapple video on my channel where I’m dipping one side of the pineapples and then the other side if you check out that video that will be another technique that you can do

I have a question after you dip them in the candy do you put them back in the fridge before wrapping them in candy or you do it all in one sitting ?
I do it in all one setting, but if it’s taking me a little longer, I’ll put them back in the freezer
You don’t have to keep in freezer while you’re wrapping one?
No you don’t but if it’s hot and humid in the house you may want to put them in the freezer until you wrap the next one but I didn’t have to keep them in the freezer while I wrap mines
Question Ro how much you charge for the candy pineapples?
It really depends. I sell them in sets of three or individually and I’m normally charging $4.50 for one pineapple and that’s only in my market.
Wry creative
Do you have a cannabis infused version?
I have a gas stove and my mixture never comes out right, what temp should I use for the gas stove?
For your gas stove I will cook it between five and six. Just make sure it’s not too high. Where is burning too fast just make sure you’re using a candy thermometer and it reaches 300°
Love the ideas with the pineapples. How would you sale the in packs of three at what price?
Hi Ro, how long can they be kept in the freezer?
Hello, they can be kept in the freezer up to a week I wouldn’t give them no longer than that
Will it work if you cut the strips long ways? Instead of the way you did it.
Yes absolutely you’ll just have to cut part of it off because if you use the full long strip, it’ll overlap and you wanted to be even. But because I did this video a while back, I got videos already done showing that way. I just got around to uploading them. I had a death in the family and I hadn’t had a chance to upload my videos so you’ll be seeing them coming, so stay tune.
@@YourSweetConnection my condolences 🙏🏾 and I will be looking forward to seeing your next video. Thanks for sharing!
Please create a video for storing the final product
What is the size of your pot please
I been struggling with my colors. I think it’s because my mixer is too brown sometimes
That does play a factor and make sure you’re not cooking your mixture too fast and also check your candy thermometer because if the mixture is too brown, like dark brown and you add color, it won’t come out as vibrant as the color you’re looking for
Thanks Ro for sharing your video with us ❤❤❤
Hello I was looking into taken a class for the candy grapes
Wondering how much do you charge for them
Hey Ro why fies your candy develop candy holes after the 48 hr??????????
Hello are you still on Etsy?
And what would be you price on them if you don’t mind sharing
Hi honey! I have a huge upcoming order for a graduation party with 200 chocolate covered strawberries and chocolate bark and I’m having the hardest time with my pricing. I don’t want to be charging to less and not make a profit but I’m also scared to charge too much Could you please PM me your tips and advice I’d greatly appreciate it! ❣️
You think this technique would work with homemade fruit roll ups?
