💑 About Hercules Candy
Hercules Candy has been on Steve’s side of the family since 1910(ish). When he took over in the 70’s, he anticipated after 10 years of hard work, he could move the business out of the basement and into a real storefront. Unfortunately, it took until 2018 for that to happen, but hey at least it happened! Steve and Terry own the shop, Craig (the social media manager) is their son, Cara (wrapper and shipper extraordinaire who is poised to take over the shop one day) is their daughter and Leah (who doesn’t love being on camera and is very elusive) is their oldest daughter. Karen has been working for Hercules Candy since the twins (Craig and Cara) were about 6 months old and everybody else is a new recruit. Don’t forget to subscribe and hit the 🔔 for more videos!

We still need to see more of Steve.. he is Hercules! There's more to just hard candy, we need variety please. Steve is the vibe, I miss his conversations

Leftover caramel makes an excellent flavoring/sweetener for coffee, tea, cocoa, and even hot cider. Just drop however much you want into a mug, pour the hot liquid over it and stir till dissolved. Reheat liquid as necessary to thoroughly melt and dissolve the candy. This trick works with ANY sugar based candy, not just caramel.
WARNING:
I haven't tried it with sugar free candy, so I don't know if it would work.

You guys should do a chocolate mint ribbon candy. Or even just the little hard candies.

My job has got to stop making me work when I have more important things todo, like watching live Hercules candy videos! How dare they expect to make more work for my paycheck!!

Hey gang, and Julia, my favorite candy girl!! Love your apron 😉. Have fun at the show. I’m SOOO jealous.

The spatula action is very satisfying!

Molasses is similar to treacle. Sorghum syrup resembles molasses but it doesn't taste the same.

As kids, we used to mix molasses and peanut together and ate it with toast…..so yummy

[Josh_Steph]

Genuine question. In the video, you mention your concern with cross contamination of chocolate and corn syrup.

Since you mix all scrap pieces in with your molasses, do you list all flavoring agents of all other candies as a potential ingredient?

Julia - take the go train to the concert. Leave your car in the parking lot because it will be crazy traffic and impossible parking. I live in TO and went to the first TS concert last Thursday and will go to the last one (Saturday). It was great!

Hey Super Sour Ribbon Candy Sounds Amazing!

[christinacoombes]

how about a pastel pink cotton candy flavored ribbon candy with pastel blue stripes 🩷🩵

[kevinjohanson]

Chamoy is just candied tamarind paste. If you guys do a mango flavored hard candy, chamoy would be amazing.

My daughter in law went to see Tay Tay in Italy because it was cheaper than the prices in the states.

[kathiecrocker]

Caramel apple pie, caramel bread pudding, caramel creme brulee

[susangutierrez]

How can I get notified in advance for live shows

[Vern-us]

sticky toffee pudding with leftover caramels

Saylor candy in Oakland, before it closed years ago, made a Chocolate Carmel Rum Patty. It looked like a peppermint Patty, with a walnut on top.
Is there any chance you have the recipe or make a rum patty?

[PereNoelRobertson]

What about COTTON CANDY / CANDY CANES.😊
