I can confirm that when Karen wraps a piece of candy in cellophane it STAYS wrapped. Breaking into Fort Knox is easier than opening one of those heat sealed bags! (Don't ask how I know about breaking into Fort Knox.) And when she tapes the cellophane it's about as challenging to unwrap as the heat sealed stuff. I really do appreciate the care Cara takes when packing orders. Once I open my box it's like digging for treasure through all the paper and bubble wrap! And since she bubble wraps everything individually as well, you can unwrap candy for hours. Seriously, if Amazon had shipped that order it would come in a box three times larger with just a single piece of paper or bubble wrap to keep the candy company. I admire the care you all take with every step of the process. You have a right to stand proud. THANK YOU ALL!! Finally, the camera work is awesome. I like the movements when following the action. Very clean. I'm no videographer but I know good work when I see it.
Been watching since Max first started working in the old house, and when Steve and Terry were considering stopping production of ribbon and hard candy because of the old school flavors not being sold. It's so good to see the growth of Hercules and all the new employees, but even better knowing Karen is still going strong bedazzling the bunnies and valentine hearts 💕🍫🐣🐰
The little lamb pops that Karen was wrapping are beautifully made and how lucky are those people who live across the road from the shop, that's every chocoholic's dream 🍫😋
I love the easter time, not that I celebrate, but get to see the decorated chocolate 🐰. Love watching Karen packing… I miss the basement for this memory…. The lambie kins lolly pops look new….? Kind regards for u HC staff…. Thank You Karen for making my evening x 🐰 x
@@Cali_909 First, Cara did a great packing job, the way you see in the video is how it arrived 2 days later, the ice pack was still cold. I'm not a big fan of cherry anything but those creams were fantastic! In one video Steve says you would not eat them all at once, but I beg to differ! LOL. The bark was amazing, I love cashews, I love milk chocolate. Together they're even better!!! I didn't know about gold stars when I ordered, but I did by the time the box arrive, so I was pretty jazzed to see it there. 10/10 will order again!
Karen is a pro in this video. Wrapped with love. Thank you Karen. Thanks to everyone who who works in production and behind the camera. Love Hercules candies!!!
Karen is always a delight ! Cooper is so dedicated and happy loves what he does Nice to see all the girls , they work so fast now! Miss Brian, wish him well in new job …
I placed my first order today !!! Can't wait to get it !!!! Excited for the strawberry lemonade hard candy because I actually watched them make it ...yumm
I sooooo wish I could order from Hercules, but alas no shipping to Australia....(Sad Face)....Love the videos....Have been watching since the old basement days....
When u said pink eye it made me think of pink eye disease that u can get in your eye now that's all I think about when I see the lambs with pink eyes😂 btw missed Karen she's always a joy to see in the videos
You guys pack the candy so well! I received an order from Lofty Pursuits, and there was the candy and the box, nothing else! Thank you for the videos and I LOVE all of you!
I’ve been watching your videos for a little bit.. I’ve always found them a great way to unwind.. but this video has to be my favorite video I’ve ever watched.. thank you!! ❤️
I come here to watch candy making and end up listening to the type of conversation my boyfriend and I have… he’s a bicycle mechanic with a lifelong love of riding. If you could possibly do it on a bike as a kid, chances are, he’s done it!
They can't do too many livestreams because sales go through the roof and they can't keep up. Thanks for the kind words. Byron Murphy Channel Moderator.
After a while does the enrobers pick up the flavor of the different things passed through it? And if someone was to be allergic to peanuts/nuts would it still effect them eating a normal cream if the enrober chocolate hasn't been changed/cleaned after using a nut product?
Not possible (in theory) with how anything to do with nuts and cross contamination is literally life threatening, there's usually specific areas or a specific day where anything nut related would be done. Or for some companies they will put a warning on the products saying 'may contain traces of nuts' just to cover themselves legally.
I helped out at a chocolate shop when I was a teenager, in my peak chocolate consuming days, and I can honestly say that the smell of chocolate is so overwhelming that it doesn't smell appetizing after the first hour.
So glad they showcased our ladies. I've missed Karen. Seeing her is always a good time
Showing the ladies some love in this video haha

Thanks Ophilia!
Karen 🤩 She is awesome. Thank you Karen for being in a video
Never, ever, get in Karen's way:) Loved the variety today. Happy early birthdays, Craig and Cara!!!

Tell Cooper to go ahead and tile his house with peanut brittle, then cover with resin...lol
The little lamb pops that Karen was wrapping are beautifully made and how lucky are those people who live across the road from the shop, that's every chocoholic's dream 🍫😋
DON'T EVER DISRESPECT KAREN. Seriously.
Steve you have to show your new home and the dinners like the old days
I love watching the candy making! It's so relaxing! I placed my 1st candy order last week, can't wait to try it!
Welcome Greg, you will get faster when you get to know where everything is…it looks like
a busy but fun place to work!
Cara has the BEST apron! STAR WARS!!
Awesome packaging by Karen and Elle....Karen yelling 'Move It'!!! 😆😊👍these are great videos
That was definitely my favorite quote of the video 😂
Woo, now it's official!!! Happy Birthday, Craig and Cara:) Hope you both are having a great day:)

@@ajayjackson7727 hahahahahahaha.
Currently eating Hercules brittle and a buttercream egg!! Your buttercream is sooooo good!! I wish I bought more of them!
Karen is a legend greetings from the UK
The order of Very Cherry Creams and Cashew Bark with the ice pack was MINE!
We expect a full review! The cashew bark looks so good. 👌

Really enjoyed all the variety of footage in this video. The bunnies and lambs are adorable. ❤
Thanks so much!
Oh I am so glad you’re using paper instead of styrofoam !
Karen is a pro in this video. Wrapped with love. Thank you Karen. Thanks to everyone who who works in production and behind the camera. Love Hercules candies!!!
I'm so happy Steve likes his hat!! Sory the first one didn't fit. lol Awesome video as always. Love my easter order! Thanks!
Some day, When I have enough money, I’m going to buy from Hercules candy 🍬. I’m from New Brunswick Canada.
Me too
Me three, lol
Seeing the brittle being covered in chocolate makes me want some English toffee. Do you guys make that too?
The candy being wrapped is so fun to watch!
Run, rabbit, run, rabbit, run, run, run...
😂
hahhaaaaaa 😆👍
Oh my, I wish I could order your chocolate chips!! I just can't afford the $54 shipping. 😭😭
Karen is always a delight ! Cooper is so dedicated and happy loves what he does
Nice to see all the girls , they work so fast now!
Miss Brian, wish him well in new job …
Love watching Karen. 💜
I placed my first order today !!! Can't wait to get it !!!! Excited for the strawberry lemonade hard candy because I actually watched them make it ...yumm
😂🤣😂 Steve! I'm no cotton-headed ninny muggins (although I DO need to order some candy).
I sooooo wish I could order from Hercules, but alas no shipping to Australia....(Sad Face)....Love the videos....Have been watching since the old basement days....
When u said pink eye it made me think of pink eye disease that u can get in your eye now that's all I think about when I see the lambs with pink eyes😂 btw missed Karen she's always a joy to see in the videos
Cotton headed ninny muffins 🤣
Steve at the end was hysterical!
Who would ever get in the way of our precious Karen :) we love her
People don't get in here way more than once!
Lol love the outros so much.💚
Happy Easter 🐇🐰🍡
Karen is a nice young lady. So get out of her way… you have to simply love and respect her.
The ULINE machine has a fan that takes the air from the room and forces it into the plastic to make the bubbles. It's not that complex. 🤣
I feel that there was a missed opportunity with the “I broke it”: you break it, you buy it! 🤣 oh no!
Got my order today!! Awesome as ever!! Thanks everyone!!
I loved seeing the lollipop sealer!
Always love watching the ladies wrapping and bagging the candy, one of my favorite parts of the vidyas
And Karen looks fabulous as always!! 💃
the girl in the red sweatshirt. her smile is gorgeous!
Cooper is a great candy artist. Hercules seems to find the best people. You know because when life takes them on a different path, we miss them.
Cooper, you could have your brittle floor, just use resin! LOL!!
Believe me, you DID NOT see everything at Disney in 4 days! Leah, you’d have to go 20 times to do that 😂
Leah said she seen everything she wanted to see.
Absolutely love Karens accent…I went to a chocolate factory here in Western Australia yesterday recognised different things from watching you guys
What accent? 😂 (I’m from central NY state too)
@@selkie_dream5039 Yeah them's fightin words Lesly! 😂 jk but I'm glad you could learn some things about candy making from us!
You guys pack the candy so well! I received an order from Lofty Pursuits, and there was the candy and the box, nothing else! Thank you for the videos and I LOVE all of you!
When she says she hasn't tried Cashew Brittle how do you NOT stop the video and have her try a piece?
Karen!!! You legend!!!! 💐 Looking good darling!
I love your videos
Thanks!
@@HerculesCandy your welcome I love the candy 🍭 videos I love the Watermelon 🍉 candy
ASMR Steve covering potato chips
Never teach all you know, it makes you obsolete. Lol
Wow chocolate enrobed with chocolate🤯🤯🤯!
I would buy fruit bark.
I placed my first order a month or so ago and didn't get the pen...but I knew what the gold star was for....😢 😊
Had I known she came down to Disney World I would’ve had her bring me some of that amazing chocolate 😎
Shout out!! San Antonio TX!!!!
I would love to watch you make the big Easter eggs
I love your channel and videos. They make my day.
This was a WONDERFUL surprise 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Steve, please explain what cotton-headed, ninny muggins mean. Is that a Syracuse expression?
It is a quote from the Will Ferrell movie Elf !
I’ve been watching your videos for a little bit.. I’ve always found them a great way to unwind.. but this video has to be my favorite video I’ve ever watched.. thank you!! ❤️
Go back to the start, I watched 4 videos a week until I was all caught-up , it was great to see the family and the business grow.
I come here to watch candy making and end up listening to the type of conversation my boyfriend and I have… he’s a bicycle mechanic with a lifelong love of riding. If you could possibly do it on a bike as a kid, chances are, he’s done it!
Assorted box of chocolates!! Yes!
Odd question. ...where do you get your bags from for the nut brittle.
the one in the tie dye sweatshirt and mask boxing the chocolate (after the Karen scene) is that Cara or Leah?
Leah, Leah is a little taller.
Thanks!
Cotton head ninnymugans.... Too funny ....I would love to order but the shipping cost to Canada was almost $50.anybody manage to pay less
send me the whole batch of potato chip bark.i in love both the choc and chips.
Those lop-eared bunnies are sooo cute! Are they shippable?
Sadly - they are not shippable - the ears will break every time 😢
I want live streaming please! 🥰😍
They can't do too many livestreams because sales go through the roof and they can't keep up.
Thanks for the kind words.

18:40 good joke, haha
I need that heat sealer for lollipops. Where can i get one🥰
I just love the trademark dreamy minutiae...
A butterfly in her hare.
That was rude, Steve 😒🤣
Love Karen! Wonderful lady, never change
You guys are sooooooo funny
I would move to New York only if I could work here!
Hello Karen!!!
Karen's the best 🤣
wait is it me or is this the first time we see brittle being enrobed in chocolate ??
I like purple
Please show how the butter crunch is made! I don’t think we have ever seen that one made
lol so i peep this black and white picture at 13:09 it looks like a meme lol but i'm curious what its says
It will be muddy in green lakes (but fun).
For anyone that doesn't regularly follow your content, this looked like a r/EntitledPeople title before I clicked to watch. lol This is cute though. ♥
Hi Scott?. I thought it was Craig behind the camera, haha
They sound so much alike, its been inpossible for me to tell. 😔
I don’t know how you guys work here without indulging yourself with chocolate
I helped out at a chocolate shop when I was a teenager, in my peak chocolate consuming days, and I can honestly say that the smell of chocolate is so overwhelming that it doesn't smell appetizing after the first hour.
Does max still work with you guys ?
Love You Karen.
What part of new york are u in my grandparents live in elmira
I can’t remember the camera guys name, but he’s doing an awesome job.
Scott is the new cameraman!
I wrapped candy eggs for 8 hrs today
The bubble maker Machine they will be a fan and a gap that will suck air into it to blow make the bubble rap
I love you Karen ❤️
