  • Just watched a couple other video's about dragons beard candy and one lady experimenting with it said that she had to cook it less than the recipe said in order to keep it more flexible. And boy do those venders in asia make it look easy and fast. I guess practice makes perfect. Their sugar mixture looked a bit more flexible than what you had aswell. I hope to see you revisit this with different cooking times.

    • @@Funfoods It seemed like part of the issue was in how you were pulling. You were pulling your arms apart, where the Korean buy was holding one side near his shoulder and pushing the other end away. That way the muscles you're using are the same you use for a bench press rather than a reverse fly. Pushing would be much easier and nowhere near as tiring.

    • Actually, not all cotton candy is flavored but just colored. Example, if you are making regular candy apples (same sugar content but no vinegar), you just add food coloring at end. It's just a cooked sugar flavor.

    • @@stephaniedaigle5930 The best flavoring is probably Louran Oil extracts. You can often buy them at stores like Wal-Mart, but you can get them at the Louran website or Amazon. I've only tried cinnamon & cherry. Cinnamon was great. Cherry was terrible with a very cloying fake taste.

    • Renee Louise Sanchez I think it has to do more with the cooking time and temp. Candy making is extremely hard to do because precision is kea. When it comes to molten sugar, the slightest temp change can mean a soft candy or a hard brittle one. The hotter it gets the harder the candy. And its also important not to stir the sugar at all when making dragons beard because that will cause crystallization and make it hard as well.

    • FunFoods --- it's the "Heat" ....you had the proper ingredients... You just let it boil a tad too long...but not by much since u were able to make a couple twists out of it... The trick is to remove it from the stove ***BEFORE*** it reaches 170° ...so like 167°-168° ...cuz even once u remove it it's still going to keep heating for a cpl minutes still... It's super important to not go "Over" 170° ... I have seen a loooot of these videos..and that has been the common denominator for each failed attempt...but usualy by the 3rd attempt.. They got it right! It has absolutely nothing to do w cooling because u can make those ahead of time and only pull them a day or two later...Also.. Adding more Cornstarch..a lot more when u twist...and your first circle was waaaay waaaay too big.... It should of needes to be half the size... ( it gets bigger as u keep twisting though ..but it's much easier to pull when the candy is the right temperature as well..a lot more soft)...For your first attempt though... U were super close! And lastly..you should twist it 15 times in total...that makes 16,000 individual strands ;) That"s the real dragon's beards count.. I have sent u another comment earlier but resending u this link tk a korean vendor so u can observe his technique ( again..keep in mind that once u get the candy at the right temperature..it"s a loot more malleable, ..it won"t be half as hard work as here..) ..I feel like I'm missing something... Temperature..15twists..more cornstarch...maybe not?..lol..( Oh I remember!! The size of your first ring! That's what it is! So I didnt miss anything lol) .Here's the Link!! It's the finest and cleanest dragon's beard I have ever seen!! Look at how much cornstarch he adds before twisting and notice how small his very first ring is too! ;) ..PLEASE Try it again and make another video!! ;) Would Looove to see it !! ;)

  • I just stumbled upon this video while looking for some details. I recently tried to make some of this candy and had several fiascos. Every recipe or video I’ve seen says to mix the ingredients together and cook without stirring until it reaches 269F. When I tried that, I had sugar that either didn’t dissolve or recrystallized. So the second batch was stirred almost continuously. Will that ruin the end product? I did let the sugar cool to 212F before pouring it into my plastic molds. Once cooled it is too firm for me to work with it. What is the optimal temperature of the sugar when pulling it? I tried to put it in the microwave at 10 second intervals. After 40 total seconds, it was starting to soften; another 10 seconds and it was starting to melt to the point of being unusable. I really want to get this recipe to work.

    • This is good enough for an untrained beginner. In ancient China this used to be the food of the emperor because there couldn't be a second candy master of the skill level to be found anywhere else. Nowadays we have corn syrup, cane sugar, and candy thermometer to help us we should expect some video to show people how to DIY a lesser version of it. And that's a good thing. While master-skilled artist makes legends, it's the dumbed-down version made in every family kitchen that ensures the dish to live on forever.
