Someone may have already asked this question and thanks for the tutorial your very helpful. What pineapples do you prefer to use? How long do the pineapples stay frozen after being removed from the freezer?
Thank you so much Ro for this tutorial!! I attempted to make candied pineapples without watching this video and it was terrible! 😂 I did not freeze the pineapples and when it was time for me to dip, they broke and the mixture was ruined. Now that I’ve watched this beautiful tutorial, I will be back to let you know how they turned out! Thank you so much again for making this video! ❤
I'm always excited to watch your videos, I never have made candy pineapples before, so I will be making some this weekend, Thank you my Candy & Treat Guru you one of the best in the game!!!!
Love your tutorials!! Thanks.... I have been having anxiety issues lately and watching your videos make me truly believe that I can do this. I have orders for grapes and pineapples, they are being patient with me. After your tutorials, I can go full speed ahead!! Thanks Ro! By the way, can we get the link to the boxes you used, its not at the top
Ran across your channel about three days ago been binge watching ever since. Appreciate you sharing your recipes and sharing your life with use....NEW SUBSCRIBER! Blessings 💫🙏🏽
Candied fruit, without toppings, is made to order. 48 hours tops. If they are covered, by something like a fruit roll up, maybe up to a week. (This is what I’ve learned from watching Miss Ro’s videos. )
Than you for your tutorials, I was thinking of doing this to raise money for my mom's surgery. Like 3 rings for 5 dollars or 5 grapes for 3 + donations.
Ma’am you don’t know how much this just helped me 🤣 I made some the other day but I didn’t know all these tips so they came out wonky 🤣 but imma make em again with my newfound knowledge 😎
Ro you are sooo amazing with candied fruit! And you also make them look sooo amazing! Congratulations on all of your accomplishments you are really a jewel!💎🩷
I love your technique great I have been struggling with it staying on mines some off in a matter of hours I be having out to early before dipping but my question is after dipping pineapples how long to before putting them in the freezer for storage
After you’re done dipping your pineapples you should place them in the freezer you should have your packaging already set up and placed them in their packaging and placed them in the freezer now if you have a large quantity to dip you should dip in certain quantities where they won’t be out so long and you are have more control over the amount that you’re dipping it just makes sense to do with that way To keep The ones you have finish from breaking down
Hey! Love this video. How does the candy mixture not harden up so quickly as your dipping? I seem to have this problem! :( about halfway dipping my mixture starts hardening.
How do you store these if youre not eating all of them the same day? I made grapes and didnt finish them all and kept them in the fridge but them next day they were half way melted.
Goodmorning. So what is the difference in keeping these frozen vs using frozen grapes to dip? In your grape video you stated the grapes coming to room temp the candy cracks. Will they happen also with the pineapple?
Yes they will. OK so the purpose for me doing these videos is to show every technique that can be done with some of these treats and desserts. Every fruit is different. And when you’re trying to achieve good results you have to do certain techniques to achieve those good results. So with Grapes they’re much smaller and when you freeze them and take them out to room temperature they tend to break down faster than pineapples, pineapples are much bigger than grapes. So if you take out frozen grapes and while you’re dipping them they’re going to come down to room temperature very fast and then they’re going to become soggy and by the time you finish Dipping, Grapes you may have some that’s already starting to break down because the grapes are trying to come down to room temperature and it’s breaking through the candy mixture so that’s why I stated I wouldn’t recommend to freeze the grapes before dipping even though some people do that but you don’t hear a lot of people talk about the after results. So with Pineapples you cannot dip them being soft because it’s too loose to dip in a candy mixture it will break away in the mix, so it needs to be firm in order to dip into a hot mixture like that. So like I stated different fruit have different results and requires different techniques. And as I said before all candy fruit does not last long I consider candy fruit to be a made to order treat! Does that make sense?
@@YourSweetConnection Hello, in your video on candy pineapple chunks you didnt freeze the chunks. If using pineapple rings should they be frozen? Thank you x
Absolutely beautiful! I am now watching all your posts... wow! Question: how long can you keep the candied fruits? Do you need to keep them frozen? can you make them in advance? thank you
Love your video but quick question once you put it in the freezer to get hard before drizzle it or before dip in the other side, the candy does not harden while waiting or do you just put it back on the stove to heat it up so that it isn’t hard anymore?
aaahhhh that looks amazing! i think i saw a video from you on candied grapes too??? Not sure but they look amazing. I would love to try candied pineapple, but i think i am alergic to pineapple. it always irritates my tongue and throat a little when I eat it. aaahhh regardless, this candy you make just looks amazing
Hey great tutorial. Just have a few questions. After up dipped them the first time did you put it back in the freezer then dip the other side. I tried it but the undipped side was so soft and the juice from the pineapple messed up the candy mix. Also, the next morning all the candy was melted off the pineapples. I was a big mess. How do you prevent that from happening?
@@starlinegomez4683 How are you drying them completely ? I have tried 3 different times and failed. Grapes I've got, but pineapples are givin me the blues..lol .. if you have any pointers I would love to listen!
@@starlinegomez4683 Of course I've dried them with the paper towel then put them in the freezer but what I am getting is the candy is melting as it is sitting. I'm doing 12 at a time..am I doing too many? Should I do maybe 6 at a time so that I can get them in the freezer quicker?
So in the video I showed how I dipped on one side and they dry immediately and once I got through my pineapples, then I go back and dip the other side but here’s the important piece of information that you need to know. They must be completely froze when you dip your pineapples and you must not leave them out too long when dipping the other side, so if you’re dipping a large quantity like 30 or more I wouldn’t recommend to do that mini unless you’re working really fast because the pineapple can get soft and then you’ll be running into an issue but you are a full mixture you can get 20 pineapples dip and that’s a total of 2 1/2 cans of pineapples but if they’re not completely froze, you’re gonna have a problem with dipping them in your candy mixture. After you dip, all your pineapples packaged them and place them in the freezer they’re good in the freezer for up to a week. Once you’re ready to serve them, you can take them out 10 to 15 minutes before time.
It sounds like you’re taking your pineapples out too early once you cook your mixture or while you’re making your mixture, your pineapple should still be in the freezer once that mixture is done and you add in your flavor or color and everything is mix then take out your pineapples And begin to dip them.
Question, while you're waiting for the pineapples to dry after the first dip, how do I maintain the candy mixture at the correct temperature? Keep it on low heat?
Hi. I LOVE the video. Thank you so much!!! I have a question. What do you do with the pineapples afterward? Do you freeze them? How long can they be stored before eaten? Thank you.
I do have another video on that information is in the hard candy grapes video when you have some time check that out but after I’m done, I placed my pineapples in a package and I store them in the freezer until the customer picks up their order. I don’t recommend that they sit in the freezer too long. I’m there only good to be in the freezer no longer than a week, but these particular desserts are really made to order because they will start breaking down if left out within 24 hours.
Normally I dip them with a knife or a fork I’ve done that before but in a previous video I’ve been asked is there another way to do them without the sticks or fork. But I don’t freeze my toothpicks and I don’t use the toothpicks I normally use a knife or fork to dip them whole.
Looks good now you have me wanting to do everything lol. But I'll just start off with the grapes since this my first time making candy fruit. What kind of candy did you use for the candy sugar? And did you buy it that way or blended it?
I love your tutorials, everything you make is beautiful. Please let us know how to store the finished pineapples I noticed you have not addressed that question.
