I have been binge watching all the old videos and I can honestly say, even after all this time I really miss Max in the videos. He was such a hard worker but was also so much fun too. ☹️
That purple looks great for blackberry! Gosh I want these candy’s so much right now. Too bad things can’t be grabbed through the screen. On that note ordered for the first time. Late birthday gift to myself 😂
Love watching these videos in my chill time before i go to sleep. Would love to buy some products but the shipping woild be so high. Keep doing what you're doing guys, you spread so much joy through the candy and the videos.
@@HerculesCandy My favorite candy has always been what my neighbor made when I was a kid. She grew up in PA Dutch country and made the best homemade cider vinegar taffy for the kids in the neighborhood.
Julia did such an awesome job!! They look so good! I dunno if she wants to do this as a full career and go into candy and having her own business, but she has the talent for it.
Your family and team are such wonderful people. You work together so well and really enjoy each other's company. Thank you for sharing, this was fun to watch.
My box just came today. I watched this video previously, which is why I ordered them. I LOVE tart and sour candy. But sitting here with my box, I had to rewatch and try them along with you! I haven't tried every flavor yet, but it's hard to pick a favorite! Watermelon is crazy good, and so is blackberry. But lemon lime surprised me! Wow! On another note, I think you should make super sour cranberry hard candy. Cranberry is one of my favorite flavors. I love the tart cranberry hard candies. Julia has great taste!
Im actually suprised how the colors turned out, save for the watermelon. Just not quite red enough imo. But you even accidentally nailed the blackberry color lol. AWESOME JOB!!!
It would be so cool if you guys made captions for your videos, that way when I have my volume down for the sake of other people trying to sleep I can still see what you're saying. You guys have fun conversations and I'd like to know more about the candy making process
Omg if I had some extra funds right now I’d be ordering a box! I hope you make these again in the future ❤ Please consider doing some with white chocolate if you can! So many if us have suggested this but I know that it can be a bit complicated with white chocolate and shipping… especially in the summer!
You folks are the absolute best at your craft. Not many old school candy makers left in America today. I hope y'all can make candy for another 100 years!❤❤❤💯🇺🇸
Beautiful creams!! I'm sure they are delicious with that little bit of tartness. I would love a whole box in all dark. Julia did such an awesome job making these creams from start to finish!! She was made for this job. An awesome candy maker, just like Steve.❤❤🍫
Julis has definitely grown on me. She comes up with some super yummy ideas. Unfortunately I am unable to taste anything because I live in Australia but I will have to send my sister who lives in America to the shop to go on a candy/chocolate raid
I got mine today and re-watched this while I enjoyed a couple.... they are AMAZING!! I had a milk grape and milk blueberry while watching, can't wait to try the rest :)
Haha no that doesn't happen because we're very thorough when taking creams out. Also while printing a tray for the next batch, a cream left behind would be very noticeable. But good question!
Watching with auto caption on and it registers the sound of brushing them off as both music and applause... Thought it was near enough to share with everyone.
Has he ever come back to visit on camera? If not, it seems like something went down that we don't know about. He was the star of every video to gone! Weird. I miss Max, too. Luckily, we have lots of old videos to rewatch. ❤❤❤❤❤
Hi Hercules! Red and blue makes purple you were right, you should have just put a little more blue in it. But then again it was black raspberries so the color was just like the original ones. 😊 I wonder what the cranberry would taste like if you did them.
Typically I stay away from this kind of stuff, it turns me off. But I find when it's high quality from a bakery, very special things that have some real food ingredients, and not some kind of processed, grocery store junk I can get excited. When I'm watching these Hercules videos, I can taste and imagine these flavors watching and I plan on gettin' me some. Thanks for this channel. Sounds like good Christmas gifts too.
Can you guys make clear hard candy? And what would it taste like if you added no flavoring? Would it just taste like sugar? Have you ever done just vanilla flavoring for hard candy?
What is the flavor with the green apple on top and its green on the inside. It tastes like kiwi or apple, but I don’t see it on the list. It’s really phenomenal! My box has two green types, the lemon lime and then the second green is the one I’m asking about. Did I get an extra treat? They are ALL yummy as can be!!! 10/10!
Would you guys ever try making Gummy candies with all those different flavours. Could imagine different sizes from all the different molds and have sour/non sour versions.
I feel your struggle Julia! Every time I make purple frosting it’s an ugly purple. I use red and blue and that happens. That stinks the malic acid changes the color. Hopefully you can figure it out. 🤞
The purple colour that resulted during the blackberry making… it’s PERFECT. if you smush a blackberry into a paper towel, that’s pretty much bang on with the colour you’d get! Blackberries are not lavender coloured 😜
Would a white chocolate coating maybe be closer to not having regular chocolate on them? And do you have a cool case where you could sell larger sizes of these and truffles individually?
If you want to make the peach creams look more peach in color, add a drop of red to the orange the next time you do these. Peach color is a slightly pinkish-orange tone.
I know you've probably told everyone this before but I missed it...1. What is the white powder you use to form the creams? 2. Do you reuse it? Seems like so much if it doesn't get used in the molds.
I'd love to see you guys make a series of bacon flavored ribbon candy. Maple bacon Cherry wood bacon, Apple wood bacon, Brown sugar bacon, smokey bacon. Bacon!! 🥓🍁🍏🍒
Would it be possible to coat the creams in the tumbler with confectionary coating like a plant based wax or something? Even a fine beeswax shell would maybe keep them stable enough to sell on site. Might be tough for shipping tho
Try it with white chocolate!!. Key Lime would be awesome. Another excellent flavor would be tangerine! You're sold out of milk :( whish you could get just the flavor we want.
Julia is dropping creams at record speeds now! Keep up the good work, Julia! Love watching your progression!
Thank you!!
Never lose Julia. She is a genius. She is so adept at all she does. She is Steve's offspring multiplied!
And if she doesn’t like something she is honest about it.
You’re sweet❤
@@DiggySozei hate lying so there will be none of it from me😂❤
She's a natural!
She also looks like him a lot
OMG, Julia's eyes at 1:12 when she tastes the creme! That's some good stuff!
HAHAHHA I KNOW! I was like WHOA SHE'S A GIF!
I thought I was hallucinating. Dang garden gummies!!
Julia is a food scientist! I love how she keeps coming up with yummy treats!
Julia is your best addition right now. You’re lucky to have her.
We sure are!
Awww❤
LOL the eyes edit is amazing
Edit? Idk what you mean, that was her real eyes
@@HerculesCandyshes part disney chipmunk then lol
@@HerculesCandy was it really? It startled me how big her iris' got. not in a bad way. just took me aback.
Julia has some mad skills,I’ve never seen anyone make candy faster in my life!
I have been binge watching all the old videos and I can honestly say, even after all this time I really miss Max in the videos. He was such a hard worker but was also so much fun too. ☹️

Happy belated birthday!
@@HerculesCandy Thank you!
I would really like you to make strawberry creams with a white chocolate coating. No added acids just straight strawberry flavoring.
Love watching these videos in my chill time before i go to sleep. Would love to buy some products but the shipping woild be so high. Keep doing what you're doing guys, you spread so much joy through the candy and the videos.
Thank you so much for all the kind words and support, the shipping prices break our hearts too 😢

Thank you so much, we really do all like each other's company, I'm glad it comes through in the videos!
Can I just say you all make this look so easy! I want to eat all of the stuff you all make 😆👏
Sour? Cream????Hmmmm…waiting for it to be a Julia favorite 😉💜
She's very picky that one!
“Dear Diary, at work today…”
😂 Craig you are so flippin’ funny
Love the meme edit too 🔥
Thanks so much!

Oh yes, HC on before bed, also up later as prepping for a market stall tomorrow (Saturday 29th)
Love cremes being dropped! 😋❤️
Good luck at the market!
@@HerculesCandy Thank you HC 🍬 it was good this time, made the rent & a little more 🥳🤭
I swear that I can almost smell them in Minnesota!🤤
Looks like the smell-o-vision is finally working!
Im actually suprised how the colors turned out, save for the watermelon. Just not quite red enough imo. But you even accidentally nailed the blackberry color lol. AWESOME JOB!!!
Yeah the blackberry color turned out better than expected haha
I feel like I’m watching a candy documentary… it’s so cinematic. Great work to everyone in the shop and the camera man and editors!
So amazing, so much hand crafting. Great job.
It would be so cool if you guys made captions for your videos, that way when I have my volume down for the sake of other people trying to sleep I can still see what you're saying. You guys have fun conversations and I'd like to know more about the candy making process
Julia is amazing. A true candy connoisseur x
Ty❤
Love the establishing shot @ 18:53
Omg if I had some extra funds right now I’d be ordering a box! I hope you make these again in the future ❤
Please consider doing some with white chocolate if you can! So many if us have suggested this but I know that it can be a bit complicated with white chocolate and shipping… especially in the summer!
Sour cranberry and apple pie for the holidays.
The blackberrie ones color lookes exactly like when i added blackberrie syrup to ice cream and made a shake.
Yeah, I think the color turned out great
Love when Julia is adding the colours - I'm an artist and making purple is always tricky. 😄💜👍🌟
That sounds so good....brings it to the next level!
These are so incredibly delicious! I got mine today and will order lots more after they’re back in stock!!!
the blackberry color was very nice! :D
i know blackberry syrup has a bit of red tint in it sometime :)
You folks are the absolute best at your craft. Not many old school candy makers left in America today. I hope y'all can make candy for another 100 years!❤❤❤💯🇺🇸

Looks delicious..creams our my favorite
When you can make Pappy go "Mmmm~" you know you are doing something right.
Julia is my happy place!!🥰
Im saving my pennies for my in-person visit to your store. Julia dared me after all ❤
We can't wait for you to come visit!
I've always wondered, do the candy makers ever miss a cream center in the cornstarch then find it later when there's a wrong color in a future batch?
I think they check with the whisk? Idk, just guessing lol
Haha no that doesn't happen because we're very thorough when taking creams out. Also while printing a tray for the next batch, a cream left behind would be very noticeable. But good question!
Swirling the concoction in the candy cauldron 💜💚💛
Seeing that never gets old!
Beautiful candy! I bet it tastes great!
Excellent video! Great cast, great editing!
Having the dotty decoration on top of the watermelon creams is genius!! 😂❤
I couldn’t tell if I liked it or not when I was doing it😭
She's a pro. amazing to watch.
I bet those creams would be amazing with a candy crunch shell.
I’m excited to come visit you guys
We're excited to have you come visit!
@@HerculesCandy how excited are you? How excited are you?
Julia is THE candy queen 👑🍬🍭
I have been looking forward to another video. 😊
Watching with auto caption on and it registers the sound of brushing them off as both music and applause... Thought it was near enough to share with everyone.
I miss Max 😢
How about a Max robot? 😅
Has he ever come back to visit on camera? If not, it seems like something went down that we don't know about.
He was the star of every video to gone! Weird. I miss Max, too. Luckily, we have lots of old videos to rewatch. ❤❤❤❤❤
Just ordered mine, can't wait. 🤤
Just got my box. These are my new favorite chocolate.

may i suggest using a variant with ruby chocolate to cover them or white chocolate ? Would be a interesting taste profile
Would you guys ever try making Gummy candies with all those different flavours. Could imagine different sizes from all the different molds and have sour/non sour versions.
What would be really cool is if you could coat the creams in a crackly candy shell like candy apples have.
to avoid grey, first add good quantity of red or magenta pink then add blue drops till u get ur desired shade of purple.
do you have options to vegan creams? id love to try some sometime
I feel your struggle Julia! Every time I make purple frosting it’s an ugly purple. I use red and blue and that happens. That stinks the malic acid changes the color. Hopefully you can figure it out. 🤞
Def using red and blue next time!!
The purple colour that resulted during the blackberry making… it’s PERFECT. if you smush a blackberry into a paper towel, that’s pretty much bang on with the colour you’d get! Blackberries are not lavender coloured 😜
those creams would be amazing candy coated instead of chocolate coated......
11:06 "Terry"fic Tart Treats
Yeeeees hahah
those silicone bowls are so awesome
Do you make a butterscotch cream? I love butterscotch!
We do!
Man if only shipping to my country wasn't insane I'd be getting these, they look amazing!
These look amazing! Have you ever sold just the cremes, without the chocolate enrobing?
Okay, never mind, I heard the comment. What about you invent a clear coating to enrobe the cremes?? You could corner the market!!☺☺
Would a white chocolate coating maybe be closer to not having regular chocolate on them? And do you have a cool case where you could sell larger sizes of these and truffles individually?
I was thinking the citrus ones should be in dark. Hmmmm, more refining. always trying.
If you want to make the peach creams look more peach in color, add a drop of red to the orange the next time you do these. Peach color is a slightly pinkish-orange tone.
Citric acids are great.. for sour stuff
Here's a new idea! Julia's Java Juice Creams. Please make mine Milk Chocolate Covered. Hazelnut Mocha Coffee. Yep, coffee creams!!
Terry’s Terrifically Tart Fresh & Fruity Chocolate Creams
They look sooooo tasty
I know you've probably told everyone this before but I missed it...1. What is the white powder you use to form the creams? 2. Do you reuse it? Seems like so much if it doesn't get used in the molds.
It's cornstarch and it reused over and over again
Yes they just replace it every few months
what about dipping them in white choc which would go better with the fruit flavors
Is it lactic acid and citric acid that is used for tartness
Would you guys ever consider making something with Biscoff cookies or spread? I think you could make some really great chocolates with it!
Even some enrobed Biscoff cookies
Just made a order... Cant wait lol
Could these not be covered with vanilla almond bark or no?
White chocolate would probably be good with these ones
Do you ever coat them in white chocolate? These fruit creams would be delicious with that.
I'd love to see you guys make a series of bacon flavored ribbon candy.
Maple bacon
Cherry wood bacon,
Apple wood bacon,
Brown sugar bacon, smokey bacon.
Bacon!! 🥓🍁🍏🍒
If you can't leave the creams naked, would it be possible to just put a thin candy coating on them?
I wish i could have these sent over to Australia :(
We wish that too 😢
Would it be possible to coat the creams in the tumbler with confectionary coating like a plant based wax or something? Even a fine beeswax shell would maybe keep them stable enough to sell on site. Might be tough for shipping tho
I can't wait to visit again!!!
There's currently no candy in my house. A sad situation, to be sure.
That's a travesty to all humanity ❤ I'm sure Hercules would be happy to take your order!!
@@SOPHIAFLYGIRLMy rural mailbox and Texas heat are not a good match for candy.
A surprise, to be sure. But an unwelcome one.
😢😢same...but my teens won't allow any to STAY in the house! 😅
@@TeeKing 😂 yes it would melt into a puddle.
17:10 that color looks like mauve. 24:21 ooo luv!
Wow! Shes good!
Try it with white chocolate!!. Key Lime would be awesome. Another excellent flavor would be tangerine! You're sold out of milk :( whish you could get just the flavor we want.
Loco is completely a cappella and every part of it is Ren. Go back and listen to it again knowing that. 😊
Did these sell pretty good? It makes me happy they let her create new candies. They recognize she’s an asset.
Love the eyes!!
Raspberry lemonade would be really good too
Dumb question...what is the powder used to make the drops?
