💑 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!

@Bella-lx8vn Год назад

Sakura (cherry blossom) has a sweet and fruity rose flavor, almost like regular cherries, and sometimes sour depending on how genuine the taste is.

@TheBaldr Год назад

No, it taste like mix between a rose petal and a leaf. Nothing like cherry.

@VailsMom Год назад

@Bella is correct in that Sakura translates as cherry blossom in English. I would assume that different manufacturers would lean into the flavor differently, some more floral/herbal and some more fruity. The word sakura certainly indicates the blossom more than the fruit, of course. For those who are interested, Cherry trees have great cultural significance in Japan and their blossoming every spring has been celebrated for hundreds of years. “Sakura” is used in Japan as a girl’s name and as an endearment as well. The cherry blossom festival in Washington DC is centered around the trees gifted to the United States by Japan in 1912 and planted around the Tidal Basin.

@sfong9633 Год назад

@@VailsMomn Japan, they do use the actual blossoms. So Baldr is correct and it does have a floral flavor. I ate a cherry blossom cookie once at a ryokan/inn. It had a single petal on it with salt and a bit of cream sandwiched between two biscuits. It wasn't fruity. Japan also uses the cherry blossom leaves with sakura mochi.

@VailsMom Год назад

Thanks for the clarification. That is certainly my understanding of how sakura-flavored confections are made. I’m not a big fan of mochi (or any marshmallow-y or gelatinous dessert, it’s a texture thing), but sakura mochi is so lovely to look at; like most all Japanese confection/pastry, there is true artistry on display. I really appreciate the widespread use of whole leaves like cherry leaf and perilla/shiso in Japanese cuisine, but then I love to use herbs myself, they’re just usually cut into chiffonade or torn, though I do use whole basil and mint, for example, as garnish.

@ruthannjones5873 Год назад

Sakura refers to cherry blossom. I can also refer to raw horse meat.

@@HerculesCandy. I’m curious what are some of your favorite candies, either old timey or modern. For example, my mom loved Mary Janes, where my teeth never loved them lol. My favorite candies are probably jels (like raspberry gels or orange gels) covered in chocolate. I also like grapefruit gummies and lime gummies which are hard to find. I also love fruit creams covered in milk chocolate, like orange cream, lemon cream and strawberry cream. And of course, I want to marry milk chocolate cherry cordials. Do you do anything like any of those, or are you hard candy only? (Only recently discovered you.). Also, besides favorite candies of yours, are there any that your customers just love, but that you personally just don’t love yourself? (Also favorite and least favorite flavors? My least favorite are ‘fake banana’, and especially ‘fake watermelon’ like Jolly Rancher! I LOVE real watermelon but fake drives me crazy. Airheads is the only flavor half way decent. Favorite flavors are lime, grapefruit, raspberry (like in jelly donuts), lemon curd, tangerine, grape, plum, juicy pear and buttered popcorn jelly belly jelly beans, etc.

Japanese starch syrup and American corn syrup are similar but not exactly the same. Both are sweet syrups used as sweeteners and ingredients in various recipes. However, they differ in terms of their sources and manufacturing processes. Japanese starch syrup, also known as mizuame, is primarily derived from glutinous rice or tapioca starch. It is a common ingredient in Japanese cuisine and confectionery. Mizuame has a thick and sticky consistency and is often used to add sweetness and moisture to foods like mochi, candies, and sauces. American corn syrup, on the other hand, is made from cornstarch. It is commonly produced through a process called enzymatic hydrolysis, where enzymes are used to break down the starch into smaller molecules. Corn syrup is widely used in American cooking and baking and is often used as a sweetener in recipes for desserts, sauces, and beverages. While both Japanese starch syrup and American corn syrup serve as sweeteners, they can have different properties and flavors. Japanese starch syrup, derived from rice or tapioca, may have a slightly different taste compared to corn syrup, which is made from cornstarch. It's important to note that there are different types of corn syrup available in the United States, including light corn syrup, dark corn syrup, and high fructose corn syrup, each with varying sweetness levels and flavor profiles. In summary, while Japanese starch syrup and American corn syrup are similar sweet syrups, they are made from different sources and can have variations in taste and consistency.

@suburbanbanshee Год назад

Thank you!! I was wondering about these very things, because it definitely did not look like corn syrup in the details.

@ebifuon6776 Год назад

Thank you for that it got on my nerve too when she corn starch sugar. Japanese very rarely use corn syrup in their sweets and have many healthier alternatives to it

@rzt430 Год назад

interesting to note that mizuame's sweetness is a lot more gentle to my tongue as well compared to corn syrup, i can finish japanese sweets more easily compared to american counterparts as a result. i believe corn syrup is flavored with either vanilla or molasses which makes the sweetness a lot heavier compared to mizuame. but then again that might just be my taste buds speaking

Jun's youtube channel became viral when he made cooked fake sushi for his cats. As for putting candies in teas, it's good especially if u want to add something like a ginger candy to it to sooth your stomach. Also use powdered/shredded lemongrass for tea and add Halls candy for sugar&citric/mint flavor. Recently, I just experimented with putting lemon, ginger and licorice hard candies as flavoring for the Vietnamese Pho soup and it works. It's concentrated flavor replaces the regular rock sugar ingredient makes it a quick hack for seasoning the pho broth in small servings.

Sakura = Cherry Blossoms. Hence the cherry trees along the platform. starch syrup = Mizuame . Mizuame is a sweetener from Japan. A clear, thick, sticky liquid, it is made by converting starch to sugars. Mizuame is added to wagashi to give them a sheen, eaten in ways similar to honey, and can be a main ingredient in sweets. Origin: Japan Main ingredients: Glutinous rice and malt or potatoes

Traditional Japanese candy and sweets are something you would taste like they came from the 18th or maybe 19th century. It takes a certain taste to enjoy them, their texture is different then western candy and they sometimes have flavors that are not all too appetizing to people not from that region. I stayed a long time in Japan, over 6 years, and never got used to their traditional candies. They go for more subtle flavors then complex or sweet ones. The newer Japanese candy like Hi-Chew is like a Starburst with Nerds, some traditional candies are more like NECCO wafers, which I was never a fan of.

I live at around 7000 feet elavation. This affects cooking times and temperatures. That might make a difference in candy making temperatures. "As atmospheric pressure decreases, water boils at lower temperatures. At sea level, water boils at 212 °F. With each 500-feet increase in elevation, the boiling point of water is lowered by just under 1 °F. At 7,500 feet, for example, water boils at about 198 °F."

Starch syrup can made from a few different things. You can find starch syrup made from potatoes/certain types of yams, certain types of starchy root, tapioca starch or rice starch. It just depends on the sourcing for each individual product. All these syrups have a vaguely different flavor profile and that can have a big impact when making something like candy.

@arianaink100 Год назад

Sakura is a cherry tree but you’re using the blossoms for the flavor- it’s like a cross between a rose and a sweet cherry. You have those floral notes but also a little sweetness of cherry juice - it’s not a sour variety like European/American cherry flavors Matcha is green tea, the flavor profile is different if it’s strained leaves and different if it’s the concentrated powder altho in Japan the powder form is more prevelant and widely used. It can be almost chalky to touch the dust and the pigmentation is from the chlorophyll of the plant and it doesn’t stain but it is obvious when you spill it - like knocking over a bag of flour it’s not an issue to spill it but it’s ya know a mess and looks like a big issue.

@jayamilapersson4030 Год назад

Sakura is cherry blossom so the powder is the petals dryed and powdered it is a fruty flowery taste in some ways similar to both elderflower and cherries(duh but its a more gentle flavour).
