Just in time for Christmas, I attempt to make a Candy Cane from scratch!
After my failures at making candy corn, I take another stab at making a candy cane, starting from sugarcane. For flavoring I use cinnamon I harvested in Mexico, and mint and wintergreen I grew and foraged plus distilled alcohol to extract the flavoring.

The chef dude looked really happy when he was cooking that candy, damn. He found a job he's very happy with.
Ken he is just high lmao
@@spoofy0760 incel
LOOK AT THAT
THatS YoR MOnEy!!!!
@@spoofy0760 hahahahahahahahahahah can't stop laughing
That chef is pretty excited about making candy XD
*passion
When a candy maker takes his craft more seriously than me a programmer
It reminds me of that video of that lady who got excited over painting with sponges
Look at that!!! Look at that!!! Look at that!! Look at how smooth it is.
means he is happy to food its called a passion
That chef is too good for this world.
edit: sorry, i noticed a typo
And his heart is like a child with pure innocence in him.
joo jett yee he does make candy for a living after all
Whole-heartedly agree-
@@metaphorgucci6175 it's amazing
M1ra IS THAT MIU
That guy was too excited making some candy canes. 😂😂😂
I want someone to love me how much that guy loves making candy
Look at that! Just look at it!
*BEAUTIFUL*
thepap 000 no love will ever be stronger the he loves candy making
thepap 000 He loves making candy a little *too* much
It’s like seeing Ainsley Harriott making his food. So passionate.
I love how excited that chef is about the candy.
3:55 that poor dog
Fuckin innit
Splashi it dipped
It ran out the gate, poor baby
my first thought was Oh My God is it okay?
Yep, I heard him wimper ;-;
Aw I love how excited the chef was, he seemed genuinely happy to teach someone.
You should add the flavoring and coloring when the candy is incredibly hot, as it'll mostly boil out the excess liquid and won't change the consistency of your candy by adding extra liquid to it.
Marce Z that’s why his red was much stickier. The excess water in the red food coloring caused the sugar to become sticky.
also having a fan blow over the product after its shaped would help
You have to put in the extracts at the start when its molten, stir it very fast so all the alcohol and water boils out and doesnt make it sticky or soft, also add the color at the start too then just stir it around to even the temperature
That's what I was thinking too.
Lofty pursuits?
Lazy House Cat yeah lol, but i also make candy so i have experience
Yeah I was like "Of course they turned gummy, you added a solvent at the last second.
Motherfucking subscribed. Every now and then UA-cam Trending actually delivers
Add the flavors while boiling because moisture makes it soft and sticky
i like that though
“Look at thaahht” that man likes his candy
Look at that! Would you just look at that! Look at it!
Andy thinking: (I've been staring at it the entire time!)
Sounds like Gordon Ramsey
I'm looking...😂
Foxx6699 just look at it!
Foxx6699 vccccc c c v. V
That chef do surely loves his job.
Sirkrodz I love u
I love how passionate he is. It's so fun to listen to
Sirkrodz he sure loves too say look at that
I want more episodes with him in them
exploding colors I love you
3:57 I really feel bad for that doggo, they be chilling then a big tower of fire appears because papa ain't no professional.
*“Broke the federal law”* ***FBI OPEN UP***
Its fun to see how much more efficient you're getting, now that you have a base of raw / first stage products.
It basically becomes little alchemy (the game) when you get to this point
Per other candy making videos, add the flavor when it’s still hot to boil off the water, which makes the candy sticky!
Yeah I learned that from lofty pursuits channel
fellow lofty pursuits addicts? Man, I wish I were in the US or had the money to have some of their candy shipped!
also, they add flavour in the pn and the colouring on the candy cooling table (Andy could've done it in the pan too, if he split it)
Im an addict of theirs too! I was so gutted because i found them a week or so after visiting Florida with my family. Being a student from the uk its highly that ill be able to go anytime soon again :(
The guy getting really excited at 10:24 was SUPER CUTE. That made my whole day.
4:02
"now that I've broken federal law..."
PUAUAHA you had me dyin man
puauaha
I don’t get it.
I appreciate that you got tips from Cody'slab again.
Yeah cody is definitely a problem solver and he should get help from him more often
Yeah, anything chemistry seems to be Cody's thing. I love his videos.
Look at it !!!! Just look at it!!!! Look at it !!!!!
Would ya look at that? Just look at it!

The colors actually remind me of the time that my parents, sisters, and I made cookies out of red and white dough. I'd honestly forgotten about it until I saw the candycanes themselves, as we did it around six or seven years ago.
Aww that chef was adorable talking about how fun making candy is awwww
As some others may have mentioned, the reason why the candy didn't set as hard crack is that there was too much water left over in the candy from when you added both the coloring and flavoring. You ideally want to add these when the candy is still hot enough to boil out all the water from the coloring and flavoring. If you check out the channel Lofty Pursuits, Greg goes over this is many of his videos.
I don't understand why you have less then half a million subs :( the effort you put in your videos is much more then probably every other channel on UA-cam.. and I don't think that there's an other channel that does the same as you! I really enjoy watching your videos and you deserve much more views!
Merry christmas from Austria :)
Sooooo true! You deserve millions of subs, but you will get there one day for sure!
NyaMoon It’s cause now people focus more on quantity over quality and since this channel doesn’t upload daily it doesn’t get the attention it deserves.
1.*Merry 2. look, we don’t care that you are from Austria. I’m Ukrainian, nobody cares
Vystri chill. No need to be rude
I never realized how difficult and labor-intensive candy-making can be! There's just as much toughness, determination, grit, and raw muscle power required by candy-makers as for mining iron or copper. Fascinating! And thanks for another wonderful video! :)
This guy should work with primitive technology.
I don’t think it quite fits these videos to use primitive technology, maybe just slightly old technology because primitives did not make candy canes and shit,
@@aturtle4499 Primitive technology is a channel
It’s happened
@@raihasiddiquee3895 idk if he's talking about the channel... But imagine how nice if he talked to him to get some tips of nice primitive stuff? Lol
yeah, in a thousand years

UA-cam is drunk... Before I replied, it said that this comment had 2 replies. It had no replies...
Coffee Man same
"Look at that!" I love when enthusiastic chefs get excited 😂
The enthusiasm the chef has makes me really happy
If he's an amateur..
*then what in the hell am i?*
You’re Mordeci
I think the reason it never quite hardened was because you added the extracts at the wrong stage. Adding them prior to pouring and boiling the extracts with the sugar might’ve removed any excess liquids in them. Either that or the sugar never quite reached the ‘hard crack’ phase temperature-wise.
slimkt Yes! He should have added the extracts when he added the red coloring (when the sugar was liquid)
slimkt exactly! You want them to almost boil off when you add the extracts and color!
Gummy Bugz true, it definitely would’ve been a challenge to manage all the different flavors and sugars at once, especially since this is his first time doing hard candy. But I think it’s a handy tip to have in the event he ever decides to give it another go. Hopefully, if he does ever try it again, he’ll be a tad less ambitious and just shoot for one flavor extract for both colors to ease the process.
slimkt if you watch the pros like the folks at Lofty Pursuits they do batches by flavor - make all the base 'white' sugar at once, then separate it and dye it right away while it's still hot so the water in the dye boils out. You don't need four different pots.
djcfrompt actually, I’m subscribed to Lofty Pursuits. And yeah, they mete it all out from one big slab, but they have special candy-making equipment like a cooling table with metal bars to separate them and a warming table to keep them malleable. This guy has a stove and limited counter space under some heat lamps (on top of just not being a professional candy maker,) so it would make sense that he’d produce his candy canes differently. However, I do agree, in that I think it’d be wise if he were making several different flavors, that he just make one flavor batch and then move onto the next, rather than trying to do all of them at once. It’d probably be a little tedious, but the end result would be better.
Normally the flavouring is added when the sugar is cooking or with the colouring, as if the water in it is not properly evaporated out the candy can be soft and sticky like yours. An absolutely great job though! You are incredible.
Some of the candy makers I’ve seen add the flavor while still in the hot form so the residual heat in the candy can boil off extra moisture.
Chef: “Now it cant be ruined now!”
Me: you sure? *burning candy in the background*
"Look at how s m o o t h it is!"
Kinda looks like you can run a methlab
Why would you make meth when you could make candy?
Random Things who says he's not
I mean, he will probably eventually do something in those lines
Gotta have a backup plan if UA-cam doesn't work out
I mean monitization is pretty rough
omg he was so proud of how smooth the candy was XD
In real life I'm a chef and you should have added the extracts right when you took the sugar off the heat, also your wanted to get to the hard crack stage in temperature which is about is in a range of about 3 degrees f so I don't believe you were quite there also I do not believe your sugar to other ingredients was right, it should be mostly sugar but beside this you had a great first attempt
Alaskan Kings cookery u sure u ain’t like 12?
I like how you always show the fails and struggles in the videos
Sofia Okorafor like that one time he slipped head first into the lake, I literally cried because wasn’t expecting for him to fall in and now I hope to see him fall in into something hehe
Finally your trending.. You deserve it man
Wow htme liked my comment.... Ive watched you for a year already :D
AnimateOut You’re*
AnimateOut you're*
D: Its actually Your.
That chef sounded perfectly eccentric - I love him.
It's always refreshing to see someone as passionate about something as that chef was.
TRENDING!!!!!!
Oh man so many likes I wasn’t prepared for this
OMFG the explosion scared the crap outta the dog. 😱😂
sweeteuthiedoll I was hoping for this comment! Lel I laughed so hard when he even took down that fence just to get away lel
Came here looking to see if any1 else noticed
This is like watching Tv. everything is perfectly planed!
The chef is the most enthusiastic person I have experienced.
"Now that I've broken Federal law..."
Hey, do you know the channel lofty pursuits they make hard and yes candy canes. They could really help since they’re trying to make there cans though fresh sugar canes
YES GO TALK TO LOFTY PURSUITS
I actually watched a bunch of their videos in preparation for attempting the candy canes myself. If we had the time and budget, I would have loved to have collaborated with them in person.
Or Hercules Candies, they make everything by hand.
I think the only issue with the candy canes was that you added the flavours too late. In the videos of lofty pursuits you can see them adding the dye pretty early, so the liquid boils off
How To Make Everything what you could do is have two different pots of sugar syrup, add the extracts midway in the boiling phase to allow some of the alcohol to burn off and get a harder result
Sugarcane juice is delicious !
You can find it in Thailand and other parts of Southeast Asia
Thank you sooo much... I've been craving Candy canes for a while... and watching videos and I was just about to make them... and you just convinced me to just go to the Dollar store and pick up a box. True they will be made from refined sugars but they are 10 for $1 and I won't eat more than one a day and I'll eat my fruits and veggies. I promise. And I won't have to fail...thanks again.
Well now that you said it you have to make Jellybeans.
coooleen BAD IDEA FOR HIM TO SAY CUZ JELLY BEANS ARE HARDDDDS
He already said that he would probably end up making hard candy so why not.
You're on trending!!! Yaaaay congrats man! You deserve it!!
You are so hardworking, I really like your videos
as a home distiller, i love you for this video.
Have you checked out the channel Lofty Pursuits? Its a candy making channel and they show all of the right equipment. You had everything but this special table to keep the candy at just the right temperature before molding it into what you want.
Jenn H YES! I was just about to comment that. It would help with the whiteness of the candy cane too
Omf his candy vids are so calming
Search up "Lofty Pursuits". This guy makes candy for a living in Flordia.
TioKilo yessssss
Flordia is my favorite continent
I love how happy the chef is. I suppose he took the saying "Find a job you love and you'll never work a day in your life" quite literal, eh? Aha.
LOOK AT IT, DOESNT IT LOOK AMAZING
HTME: *just keep nodding*
lol I lost it when he drank the ethanol
I think youtube trending was sober this time.
UA-cam was sober but this candy is drunk!

I love that chef he is so passionate about making candy it makes me happy
That candy chef could be a WWF wrestler with that energy! Introducing , the CANDY MAN!
hey andy, it looks like during your distillation you have the water flowing incorrectly, you should make sure you have the water flowing from the bottom part of the condensation tube to the top, that way it fills the condenser all the way and makes for a more effective distillation and helps to prevent your condenser from cracking due to uneven heating. Just want to give you a little tip because this channel is awesome!
Thanks for the tip! The water pump I bought was a bit too weak, so it only worked flowing that direction unfortunately. I picked up a better one so hopefully I can run it the proper way now.
The candyman is... intense
Whoa i think this candy cane v1.0 is among the best of the HTME series. This one definitely seem hard. and I love seeing some extras of older projects make it to another project. Good project
That was definitely a professional chef.
Speed usage: Check
Confidence even when he messed up: Check
Condescending attitude: Check
Blaming tools instead of skills: Check.
Next time add the color while the candy is still hot to boil the water out o f the colorant. The extra water in the candy could have changed the sugars enough to make it set soft.
Gemm no he should have conentrated his colors and flavors to reduce the moisture in it to begin with
MISTER But he should have also added them while the candy was super hot. That's how professional candy makers make hard flavored candy.
For the new year
Maybe you can do your old videos again just bettet with the lessons you learned.
Like a updated virsion
It would be cool
I think you underestimate how expensive and time consuming these videos are
I know that they are expensive to make
But he will make something
So i am just suggesting what to make
There is not a big price diffrence if he will do an updated virsion or a new video
That's a good idea 👍🏼
Yes, but there would be a view difference. Spending a bunch of money to recreate something people have already seen done polished just will not be worth it. Especially with how tight money seemed to be for them a couple months back.
Nathanus it will be different and updated
People would LOVE this
He talked about what he learned and how to do it better
So in the next video he will make it a lot better and less money
I'm also from Minnesota, but my dad's cousin, Virgil, grew sugar cane down in Texas. We would go out into the field and he would cut us off a drippy, runny stalk of cane for us to gnaw on all day. On the way back to the ranch, we passed a roadside slough where a flock of Flamingos were grazing. He pulled over and said "watch this", as he reached under his car seat and produced a firearm, which he proceeded to fire in the air out his car window to set the birds to flight. Yeah. Texas!
I just realized I’ve never seen a professional chef with a hair net
we normally wear hats
I see why thy are soft. You should mix the flavoring in when it is liquid so there is no water in it. Water will make it sticky and soft. Also a hack to let you work with it longer is working with it on a warm/hot surface, as it will not let it cool as fast. And candy makers are not buff, it is semi easy to pull when it still really hot, but we wear themal gloves. Hope this helps!!
I know this is late but on the lofty pursuits channel they make candy btw, they talk about how the water in coloring and extracts for flavor make them stickier and more like Taffy. :)
I remember mom making taffy for us. She would make sure we slathered butter on our hands to keep the hot candy from burning our fingers while we pulled it. 😂 ❤️
Dude You nailed it. But did not think about the moisture you were adding with the flavors. Checkout Lofty Pursuits youtube channel they do hard candy and their videos are awesome for learning technique for when and why what flavors to add. If your near them you might even be able drop in and get a few first had pointers.
Nice comment... But it's "hand" and not "had"
I love this channel and Andy you really deserve At least 700,000 more subs than you have keep up the awesome and amazing work
The effort In this video needs to be more appreciated + I loveeee your channel, you just got another subscriber. Also Merry Christmas 🎁🎄
Laughed so hard at your dog knocking the gate over to run away from the fire pit.
That chef is way too much into candy “HOoO LOOoOOoK AT THAAaAT”
From what I have learned, you add the extract when it is boiled and the coloring when you first pour it out to boil out the extra water from the extract and coloring.
Edit: You should check out Lofty Pursuits' channel, they could show you how it is done.
he found the only dam cinnamon plant in Mexico and ....cut it down .... hahahahahahahaha
Mitch Scott
Mexico has a lot of cinnamon
Chemeleon15 HAD..until you cut it down lol
Chef Terry was very passionate and it was a joy to watch
Science + cooking = best thing to ever watch
Try putting them in your dehydrator.
I may not be a scientist but the flow of cold water in the condensation tube is the other way around , ur yield is increase if it is correct
OpticalLuck OwO can confirm, in our university labs (am a biology major, had to take chemistry) we always hooked it up with the water flowing upwards
You're probably right, I bought a water pump that was way too weak, so it only works if it's flowing down the tube. I bought a better one right after this, after seeing how much alcohol was escaping as a vapor still at the end of the tube.
That chef is the drama teacher I always wanted
I think the issue was that the flavoring needed to be added when the candy was almost finished boiling. Then, the flavor is incorporated and the alcohol can boil off.
Wow! You are something to inspire towards.
This Little Critic ikr
Just a friendly correction, it's "aspire", rather than inspire. :)
God i love that chef!!!
Frances Ubogu either you are kidding, or you are a hardcore Christian. There is no in between.
Sebastian Bach's long lost brother lol
cody cody you’re wrong
He sounds like a slightly higher pitched Mark Hamill.
Justin Y. Dang still I keep searching for you and there you are. But took me a little to notice how old your comment was
Imagine being as excited about your job as that chef
14:30 this is why candy makers have metal hooks that they use to pull the candy, using the candy's weight and gravity to do the work for them. The flavor extracts should be added at the end of the cooking process before it comes off the heat. By adding it during the pulling process, you cooled the sugar too rapidly and changed the formation of the crystals.
Love your videos
Cody'slab knows what's up
A soul for a soul a cane for a cane
When that cook said "pulling and pulling and pulling" you could see in Andy's eyes he was thinking about stuff that he shouldn't think about
Am I the only one here that keep watching the ads just to help?🤔
Justhings Anstuff yep
ads doesnt help much tbh the best way to support is to donate to his patreon. even 1 dollar is worth alot more than watching 100 ads
I sometimes click on them, they get paid more from ad clicks. (I think, not entirely sure)
