I make hard candy in batches and I always have used lorann oils to flavor all of the candy I make. I also do chocolates and I have gotten amazing compliments for my peppermint dark chocolate
Hi and thank you so much for watching. I always cool my candy at room temperature. I typically don’t make it in the summer months as the humidity makes it tricky to keep from being tacky. Keep it in a cool dry area for best results. 🙋🏻♀
Excellent video thank you! I’m about to make my first batch today! Quick question…if I wanted to make a more chewy candy, what temperature should I use? Appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!
Thank you so much for watching. I am not sure!? I have never made it like that, I am not sure it wouldn’t turn to mush however, I would try the “soft boil” version on your thermometer and try a little experiment! 🙋🏻♀
Hi, thank you for your comment. I used regular food coloring that is used for baking however, I know there are safer dyes on the market now. I would check out LorAnn Oils online (they do not pay me, I just like the company and products)and see their options. It’s candy making season here so I will be doing the same! 🙋🏻♀
As long as you keep it in an air tight container away from moisture you can store it for months! Moisture will be your candy’s nemesis! Thank you for watching! 😊
@@howtocooktocope7558 thank you so much!!! I made your recipe today and I'm so happy with the way they turned out. First time making candy and I thought I would mess it up but your instructions were so clear and helpful that I felt like a pro candy maker. Thank you so much for sharing your recipe 😊
I have made hard candy many times with corn syrup and I never brush down the pot, I was told that corn syrup keeps the candy from forming crystals, and so far I have never had crystals.
I rarely have an issue either. I believe this advice was originally given (not by me) for people just starting out, to be aware of sugar crystals or boiling too hard and fast. I make candy without that step as well 😊 Thank you for your comment!
Today I made a batch of hard candy smaller than this recipe...1 cup sugar, 1/2 cup corn syrup and 1/4 cup water...I only added 1/2 teaspoon of the Lorann pepermint oil, I was afraid to add the full teaspoon since it says it is so much stronger...but now I wish I had used the full teaspoon...the flavor is great, but not as strong as I would have liked (and yes, I did wait til the boiling action had stopped before adding the oil)...so I would like to say that in my case it was not as strong as it says. The flavor is fantastic, next time I will make it stronger.
Hi there - I am wondering if you have any tips for keeping my hard candy mixture liquid while pouring into my molds. I have 75 cavities that I need to fill but by the 55 cavity, my mixture gets too solid and does is not able to pour. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I get about 60 bears (bear mold) or 45 and a few suckers from a small batch. I wish I had a better answer but I just had to practice to be fast 😂. I have heard people say you can reheat it but I wouldn’t advise it as it could and probably would compromise the flavor. Practice makes almost perfect 🤭 Are you making a small or large batch?
I've seen someone divide their batch, pour the first half from a silicone bowl and place the second half still in the pot onto a heated pancake griddle to slow the cooling process. I have not personally tried this so I can't attest to the success but this seemed like it was his standard practice. I imagine you'd still need to work quickly. I do plan on keeping my eyes peeled for a cheap griddle at the flea markets. I suppose any other small warming appliance would work. Just keep safety in mind if you have young helpers.
okay.... sooo wish I had watched this before i made my first batch of candy, which was just about 15 minutes ago....but now I know the tips and tricks...thank you
I have made cough drops with honey and the consistency is not the same however, I intend on posting some healthier alternatives in the coming year so stay tuned, I will see what I can do! Thank you so much for your comment.
Coating a wood toothpick with cinnamon oil and/or various quality mint oils can be a wonderful experience to your taste buds with practically no. sugars. 🙏🌹❤️
Walmart sold cinnamon peppermint together like starlight mints but very strong during the holidays years ago but I can no longer find them. Any idea how to make my own the ones that are sold aren’t strong enough. Thanks
Thank you for your comment, I just looked those up because they sound amazing but I have never heard of that blend! I do not know how but I am now curious! I found the ones you were referring to online… www.walmart.com/ip/Peppermint-Starlight-Mints-1-pound-Peppermint-Star-Light-Starlite-Hard-Candy/102661513?athcpid=102661513&athpgid=AthenaItempage&athcgid=null&athznid=si&athieid=v0&athstid=CS004&athguid=imzSoO3pPqAFaeWPXBRTsio0lBRW1wkBGCw9&athancid=null&athena=true
Thanks for your reply but they aren’t the same. These were the right amount of peppermint and cinnamon I even contacted Walmart with no response from them. I have tried many different candies and none were the same.Thanks for trying to help..
I sent the above comment earlier this year and found out that Brach’s was the one that made the candy that Walmart sold and stopped making it in 2011. Im going to experiment with these flavors.
I have used 2 drams if I felt the flavor wasn’t strong enough for this size batch, so far that has only been one flavor. I use LorAnn Oils for that reason, their flavors are pretty potent. It wouldn’t hurt if you did though. 😊 I would only caution you if you are using hot cinnamon oil, that might hurt! 😱
Many people suggest it however, I never use spray or oil and my candies come out perfect. As long as you let it cool completely they should pop right out.
Have you got any advice on stopping it being too sticky when putting in packets? I made a small batch of lollies today and even after dusting them with icing sugar they still seems to make a mess. They’re for my friends wedding favours 😅
Hi Helen! I experience this situation in high humidity, If I make hard candy/boiled sweets/lollies in summer I crank my air conditioning up because humidity is sugars nemesis. In the U.S. some lightly dust their candy in corn starch. Another reason for sticky candy is if it isn’t cooked long enough. I’m not sure where you are located however, if it’s humid I can just about bet that is your culprit. I have read that you can cook your candy for an additional 2 degrees higher to make up for the humidity outside. I have not tried this myself so I cannot vouch for it personally but wish you luck if you give it another whirl. 💕
@@howtocooktocope7558 thank you for this! I’m in the UK, the weather isn’t the best at the moment but can get quite humid at home through the day, I didn’t actually think of that! I’ll give another batch a whirl today and cook it a little longer too. Pray this works 👏
@@howtocooktocope7558 cornstarch will work, you can also sand them in sugar, if you want a sour patch type taste sand them in a mixture of citric acid and sugar
Well I suppose it depends on your definition of boring. Citric acid makes the candy sour, I am not a fan of sour candy but my husband loves it. If you want sour candy you can easily toss these in citric acid and sugar afterwards!
I can’t believe I missed that important information! My apologies. Hard crack is between 300 and 310 Fahrenheit, I never go beyond 305 or my candy starts to have a bit of a burnt flavor.
I never have luck with extract in candy, I always use oil for a much stronger kick! I really appreciate your feedback. LorAnn has a great lemon oil! (I am not paid by them 😆)
i followed this recipe meticulously, and my candy has a touch of a bitterness to it. 2 batches have had this that i have tried. is this normal? is it from the syrup?
Bitterness can occur when your sugar burns. I keep my stove on medium low but everyone’s stove is different of course. I also make my candy in a heavy bottom pan because the heat disperses more evenly. I’m sorry your candy didn’t turn out this time. Please let me know if you try again.
Hard candies is a way better alternative than hard smoking. I have long been addicted to cigarettes. And soon I’ll be taking up skateboarding. And thus, to avoid huffing and puffing in between tricks, hard as it may be, I might have to quit smoking altogether. I was told smoking impedes athletic performance. I’m hoping your candies can help me.
@@howtocooktocope7558 Thank you very much! So it’s a choice for me between smoking and skating. At first I considered vaping but my friends tell me that vaping is just as bad and eating candies is an even better cessation alternative. Plus, it gives a dose of extra carbohydrates for an energy boost. ( in skateboarding for me) I’m pretty sure you tried it too! Am I right? Anyhow, congratulations on your awesome patience and determination to quit smoking! Job well done ! Thanks for sharing the candies.
Thanks for this wonderful video! I ordered an oz of LorAnn’s cherry oil. How do you measure a dram? Have you ever tried using a sugar free sweetener such as erythritol or xylitol for those with sugar restrictions? I would love to have a recipe for that! 🙏
1/16 of an ounce is how it is defined. 🧐 As for using substitute sweeteners, I have not yet ventured however, my lifestyle should incorporate some alternatives! Thank you for your comment. 💗
Are you cooking to cope with pain also? That's exactly how I came across hard candies and this video. I hope all is well. Edit: I just read your channel description so I understand now. I hope that you can find as many fun distractions as there are pains. I completely understand.
Oh no! Do you mind me asking what flavoring you used for your candy? I give my candy a really good stir before pouring as well to make sure it’s thoroughly incorporated. Please let me know!
@@howtocooktocope7558 I used cinnamon, but this is the first time I made it and I don't think I stirred it enough. I was kind of nervous because I kept hearing how potent the steam would be, so I made a quick stir and poured real quick lol!
@@rhondafurrow2712 Cinnamon oil mist can burn for sure! I always put my extractor fan on with cinnamon. I would bet that’s what happened. I really hope you give it another try. I want to celebrate your success!
@@howtocooktocope7558 I am going to try watermelon flavor either tonight or tomorrow, I will be sure to stir more this time lol! Thanks for your feedback and I will let you know how it goes.
@How to Cook to Cope Ok, so I tried the watermelon and it came out pretty good except the flavor wasn't there. I mean, there was a hint of watermelon flavor but not very strong at all, It was throughout the candy not just on the outside like the cinnamon was so I stirred it up correctly this time! Do you find that some of the flavors are weaker than others?
I wanted a buttermint flavor so i used 1 dram btl of butterscotch and 1/2 peppermint and yuk! lol it was to minty. Oh well, i made 2nd batch, threw the first in and added another butterscotch dram btl. I'll leave the flavoring experiments to Lorann.
I’m so sorry your candy burned. Perhaps your stove runs a little warmer and you may want to try turning the heat down a bit. You also want to make sure your thermometer is working properly as I had one that was off and kept ruining my candy batches. Please let me know how your next batch turns out. 🙏🏻
I just made bowel licorice and winter green. The flavor is very weak. I followed the directions, the oil has not expired. Any thoughts? Is 2 drams OK? I can't find anything on the lorann site.
