    I think this channel is a lot like a modern day Bob Ross. Gregs persona and voice is just so inviting, and warm, and the way he does his job like he loves every moment of it is just so wholesome.

    I wish there were more local candy shops around the states like there used to be. Most people don’t even think about how candy is made, they just want it. They want it cheap, and they want it now. The funny thing is, most candy made locally is cheaper and much higher quality. Local ingrediants, local sales, and made with love all combine to make an amazing taste. Well...as long as the person making it loves what they do. You, sir, are a testamant to how candy should be made. I hope your buisness flourishes and you love what you do for the rest of your life. Keep everything simple and full of love.

      this is like this everywhere.
      homemade or locally made stuff is rare nowaday.
      but lately the big chain are starting to drop their quality to a point where people are thinking about re-opening those vintage store.
      like bakery, doughnut shop and small diner

    This may sound cheesy:
    I ordered candy from you guys during the summer, and when it came I had been in a car accident the same day. It was a long and tiring day, we hit a pole head on, I'd been jerked around and dragged to a hospital to do all kinds of tests and I just wanted to go home, and when I got home the candy was waiting for me and it made a terrible day much better. I absolutely love the candy you guys make and it made me happy enough to forget about the ginormous seatbelt rash across my chest, haha.

    In Sweden we don't make ribbon candy in this shape, we tend to make it in a sort of curly spiralling shape instead, as if you were to wrap the ribbon around a pen or something instead of letting it go through a machine. We also sell this type of candy during open-air markets and in paper cones. I was so happy when my mother got me a cone full of candy at the market once when I was little, for instance.

    I'm glad you slowed the video down to see the pulling of the candy. There's something just so satisfying about seeing this part of the process. Especially when you first put it onto the cooling table and start to separate the colors. Watching the hot liquid parts fall out of the cooler parts as you hold it up is mesmerizing for some reason! Thanks for doing this and also for all of the explanations to go along with each video. Quite interesting!

    So my grandpa, who died a few years ago, loved this candy and before he died we couldn't find any and it was a special thing for him and my mom to grab when she was growing up. She just found some in the store the other day, and we couldn't keep it because I have food allergies and the production wasn't safe so seeing this made me feel a little bit better and also gave me the idea of trying to make some for her so thank you :)

It was so thin that it was like shattering glass when you bit into it and I've never been able to find any that thin since. Some of it is downright quarter inch thick! The box was also full of 12 to 18 different flavors and colors and it was made by a small two person operation candy making shop in Portland Maine. They are still making and selling candy but not that ribbon candy. :-(

    It seems like that ability, to fold ribbon candy by hand, would be pretty damn useful in your profession.

    I love how Greg treats every video like it's the viewer's first. Something about the repetition is soothing. Normally I hate having things I already know explained to me, but it's different here. You have a way with words, Greg. And candy.

    Pretty much all the local small business candy stores have shut down in my area and it's just See's and like one dedicated shop in a mall, watching these videos makes me nostalgic and reminds me of what used to be here.

    I LOVE ribbon candy for its texture properties. Snap it into a smaller lenth, put it vertically between the teeth, and bite down to feel its multiple levels stacking atop one another as the flavor comes to life. Lovely.
