On our candy press from 1871, we produce our cinnamon red-hot candies and we think about the origin of the heart shape that does not look like the heart in your chest.

I love how he skips over acid drops so calmly
About the heart shape: Here in Germany, the story about the shape is quite nicely documented. The main story goes like this: The origin of the shape was the ivy leaf. Certain members of the ivy family have a round and heart shaped leaf when young. The reason on why the ivy was chosen is based on a few factors: the ancient Greeks knew that ivy can become very old. Some can be up to 400 years old. So it stood for health and long life. Also, ivy can be turned into medicine. Another point is the fact that ivy can be a ever green plant. Even in the coldest winter. So, in the dark ages the ivy was used as a metaphor for health and to be vivid. And that was often used to compare the love of the people to someone. Fun fact: back then, love was rather symbolized with the color green than red. Red was added later, as blood was added into the meaning of the heart and thus the red ivy leaf was the new symbol of the heart.
Wow, I didn’t know that. You learn something new everyday!
I didnt read it but i read like 2 sentences its tooooo long but good story lol
That's extremely interesting, thanks for sharing bro!
Fake
This is still all speculation
In my opinion, the white candies kind of look like shark teeth. Shark week special maybe?
+Declan Worley I've always thought the white Hart's kinda looked like that.
Watching him make this candy is low key satisfying as hell for some reason. I ended up in a trance-like state watching him do what he was doing for the whole video. I know i can't be the only one that found this satisfied and ended up in a trance too.
Acid drops? Now that sounds interesting.
Pretty sure its citric acid, not the one you are thinking of.
But then again, its the 50 year anniversary of the summer of '67.
Link Race Cars it's candy with citric acid and when you break them apart you drop them
What kinda trip would those pieces take us?
Yeah, propably nowhere, since its citric, not lsd :D
Mazaroth lol
Link Race Cars would you like some i got some
i really liked the mix of candy making and information!
+BuTTerKek5 Thank you. We try to do this in most of our videos. Please check out the others.

It's certainly one of the attractions of this channel.
the heart shape is two hearts pressed together
ThatGuy actually, no it's not.
NOTHING IS MORE FUN THAN POPPING BUBBLE WRAP !
"I'm glad this can compete with electronic entertainment" you say as i watch this on youtube from a smart phone
Person: *walks into a shop, sees heart-shaped something* THESE AREN'T ANATOMICALLY ACCURATE
Watching these videos is surprisingly therapeutic
Your voice is deeper and more gravelly today. You must have been sick, or have stressed your voice - or else, you've changed your microphone or sound editing production. I hope you're taking good care of yourself; you're a national treasure.
Finn, just Finn. Im glad Im not the only person who noticed. I hope Greg is alright. :) I need these videos to live.
Amber getting over a cold. only had the time to record it because I could never t make candy. I sort of rocked out to the lower voice. I felt I was channeling my inner James Earl Jones
Finn, just Finn. Iii
Oh I can actually answer the heart thing! Most people believe that it was because of the ban on dissection during the middle ages. So most people didn't know what a human heart looked like. And if you look at a real heart, you'll notice it DOES somewhat look like the right shape (because of the way the chambers are situated), if you take away the arteries and veins and if you look at it from a certain angle. So considering the simplistic art style of the time, many believe that it was the artists' interpretation from what doctors were telling them it looked like. Plus back then people strongly believed that the soul dwelled in the physical heart, and that the heart was responsible for emotions.
So by the time that the Victorian era came about with its proper medical dissections in med school, the cultural view of the heart had had centuries to cement itself into the public consciousness.
Now it's used to represent the metaphorical heart, opposed to the physical one.
There is another possible theory. It is the shape of a woman's butt. From a certain perspective a woman's ass looks like a heart shape.
@@MasterGhostf Depends on whose booty you're looking at. Not all of us are that blessed.
The heart looks like half of what the symbol of a heart is. It's a symbol of two hearts joined together.
Wow!
Thank goodness because drawing Spinel would be 10× more confusing. I can barely get all the facets of her gemstone right without looking at a reference.
I just found it and i have already fallen in love with this channel. Not just, that your voice and watching candy being made is soothing af, but you also always give us some nuggets of trivia with it. Love that. Hope i can make it to the store one day.
I would love to see a store tour. I live in Australia and I don't think I'll ever travel the I-10 to visit the store.
Rade I live in Tallahassee and I've been going to their store for years and their main attraction for most people is their delicious ice cream, but I admit that it would be cool for them to share their wonderful store with others.
I live over in Los Angeles. If I ever take a road trip that goes anywhere near Tallahassee, I will take an hours-long detour here.
Rade i live in germany
Rade you go to their website and order some candy 🍭
UK here. one of the hundreds of things a lottery win would lead to
What do you do with the candy "dust" that's left over? I was wondering if you could bag it up and sell it as cake sprinkles or something. It's pretty and probably 100% tastier than regular cake or cookie decorative sugars.
Excellent video!
+Xenotropos without additives it glues together quickly. Some employees snag it to flavor and sweeten their tea.
It is a good idea tho
@Danny Blue How is that savage? They answered the question.
Lofty Pursuits so basically, use quicker, got it
I love your videos. I've had a bit of a bad day, and I've been binging your videos all night long, my problems have gone away for a while. It's great seeing someone so genuinely happy to be doing what they're doing, and the smiles from the mods and adults make it all the better when you hand out the candy. Thank you for putting up all of these videos!
I love you how you explain the background why you do each step. I can see the joy you have in making hard candy and I am really glad I found this channel. Watching you make candy is really satisfying.
If I ever get to Florida I'll make sure to give you a visit!
ITS MORE FUN THAN POPPING BUBBLE WRAP? DAMN I NEED TO DO THIS
I've watched many candy making videos, but this is without s doubt, the best one I've ever seen. I loved the history of the shape of the heart, as well as little bits of information about why you do certain things during the candy making process. As a side note, you also have a really soothing voice, so it was a very calming video to watch!!
Candy making and info,old machines, history about everyday life things, great music, smooth voice AND great camera work this channel is freaking amazing.
I love how you give us history lessons as you make the candy. It's both relaxing and interesting!
how would they turn out if you put 2 flat sheets of candy together and put it through the roller? would it result in candy that is one colour on top and another on the bottom?
+Building Books if it squeezed evenly yes, but odds are there would be marbling as when the candy bunches as you roll it through, it can still look cool, but takes more time to do.
I would like to see marbled candies on this machine, or how about mixing candy dust on other batch?
Lofty Pursuits it would look really cool
Lofty Pursuits could you use something like a pasta roller to get even sheets of candy?
@@jolienvsndijk probably
How do you guys maintain/clean and take proper care of your antique tools? Could you do a video on that?
seconded.
There is a video of him unboxing one of them that he purchased. Unfortunately, the rollers were not made correctly, probably why it was still around. It never got used!
He mentioned this in a video a while ago. From what I remember, he said that they used some kind of oil (I think it was canola oil but I forgot) between the gears and all the bushings to minimize wear. As for cleaning, I would imagine that they use warm soapy water, quickly drying all the pieces and storing them in a cold dry place to minimize corrosion.
iddqd221 Soap, dry under a fan, bees wax, coconut oil, canola oil.
Lofty Pursuits/ I wish I could come and visit, but I don't really wanna spend hundreds to thousands on a trip to America just to see your candy shop. What state are you in?
I loved listening your voice, and watching you make candy. Thanks for sharing a bit of cinnamon-flavored magic!
I absolutely loved this video. It's brilliant how you talk while you make the candy, it made the whole thing very entertaining.
there is definitely an audience for this in the creative section of Twitch, or even CZcams if they allow the same kind of live stream.
+Dylan Mills I've done quite a few of these. But rarely had more than a few hundred Watchers.
Lofty Pursuits I'm sure if you advertised the date and time many more would go watch. I know I for sure would.
I heard that the heart shape was meant to represent two anatomical hearts attached together, supposedly as a reference to Plato's Symposium myth (the one in which soulmates originally were one person with eight limbs split apart by Godly force, etc. etc.) No clue if that's valid at all.
I heard the same. Would also match with the image in this vid about the first 'hearts' in Hagia Sofia - they're divided down the middle
I like these better than what I've been told. Someone once told me the heart shape is a tribute to a woman's butt lol
I heard it was a woman's ass bending over
I miss these videos! I literally can't stop watching them they're so relaxing and educational in a way. :)
the information you give while doing the candy making is so interesting, and watching the candy making is so cool to look at, it's like my senses have had surger thrown at them
I enjoy the research and information that goes into these videos! The narration keeps me hooked
Saint Sophia in Istanbul was first a church then a mosque but today it's a beautiful museum where everyone is welcome.
I love these videos just found them. It's like "how it's made" but much more educated and entertaining to watch. Keep doing these awesome videos.
This was so much more that I expected to see. A thoughtful and deep essay of history, tradition, manufacture, and fun. Sir, You got a new suscriber!
Are you some sort of candy scientist?
Jesus Impersonator more like a candy historian
Me and my Son Absolutely just love Cinnamon,Cloves & Cardamom
candies..
Your all are doing excellent awesome works. You guys are making happy & making people's smiles with your candies & your beautiful lovely family valuable videos..
Well done guys..
Keep going it,keep it up.
Thank you so very much for uploading the valuable video.
All the very best wishes..
Wow this is my new fav channel and he's voice was sooo soft and warm
this is awesome, so much information and satisfying to watch. I binged so many episodes already lolol
Just in time for Valentines Day!
David S. ...valentines day already passed
Negative Kendama sarcasm
I'm dead 💀
another lovely candy! also, I've heard that the heart shape was formed by putting two anatomical hearts together at a certain angle! just thought I'd share!
I do love your videos. Great that you're using so much vintage equipment too.
I love listening to you tell these stories. You should write a book about making candy and history of hard candies and record it as an audiobook.
Some animals' hearts do look like the iconic heart shape. Hell, under some angles the human heart kinda looks like it too. At least as much as "two hearts put agains one another" or whatever, and that's why that theory is just popular nonsense.
The 10th to 12th centuries perhaps would have been the ideal time for the symbol to come back into vogue with the rise of Scholasticism and a big influx of surviving Roman texts.
Thank you for your videos. It’s a fun way to learn, you explain things so well. Also you have a pleasantly relaxing voice and your smile is awesome👍
That's so cool and I love how you tell storys and give some information about the heart for example.
can you please make sushi roll hard candies. does anyone agree?
I've done this, but wasabi is nto a good flavor.
Lofty Pursuits yeah I guess so...
Lofty Pursuits I suppose not, but maybe coconut? or strawberry I think of both of those when I think of sushi
Lofty Pursuits maybe watermelon or citrus?
Ginger is, though...
What do you do with the candy sugar dust? :)
+dashn64 employees take some of it. It's hard to keep it soda becomes a solid mass and just a few days no matter what we seem to do.
I bet it would go great as an ice cream topper. Or roll snickerdoodles in the dust before baking. Perhaps just mix them into oatmeal: this one should even work once it's adsorbed moisture and became a sticky lump as the heat would dissolve enough candy to stir it in.
Or cake/cupcake decorations :-)
dashn64 snort it
It’s always fun watching you guys poring the rest of the candy inside the cooled candy
These are my favorite of your guy's candies and it is just so cool to see how they're made!!
I heard the shap came from vague descriptions of the heart from pre-dark ages surgeons doing autopsy, then when that sort of thing became illegal people only had these poorly vague descriptions of a heart to go off of.
Daemon Grimm shape
?
These were delicious:)
I really liked the commentary! It was very pleasant and enjoyable to listen to!
He looks so happy, such a nice voice too. Very relaxing and enjoyable vid
you bought 2 defferent heart necklaces for this vid? thats dedication lol
I think it's two realistic hearts sewn together or the basic shadow of two people kissing .
It's always so interesting to see how you make all these candies!
I love the fact that you tell us some of historical facts with this beautiful candy videos!
do you grease the pulling hook? I've noticed that sometimes the candy sticks and sometimes it doesn't
+MissPVZlover the candy sticks to surfaces that approach it was in heat. Most of my videos are not the first batch of the day (due to how the sun comes in the window in the am) after a few batches the hook gets warm.and sticks. The hook is waxed, but mostly to prevent rusting.
Lofty Pursuits oh! that makes sense thank you!
I believe the heart shape is two human hearts sewn togeather. As two hearts coming togeather.
There is just something so satisfying about this video and the voice over is so soothing also the background music I really liked this video
this was so cool! i loved watching the candy making process while you narrated about the candy and the history behind the heart shape :D
I wonder why CZcams recommends me some heart shapes candy on upcoming february 14. hmm smh
I read somewhere that the loveheart shape is made from two human hearts overlapping or something :)
+sophmazing I could not find any historic evidence for that being the origin.
alrightio then, my memory is probably just crappy oh wwell :)
I really love your videos by the way
I was always told that the shape came to because it was an error while drawing an actual heart. I'm nowhere near sure though. Again, it's just what Ive been told.
sophmazing i heard it's supposed to look like butts
It symbolizes two hearts pressed together
Your company and voice are awesome!
My son and I happened to run across your CZcams video by happy circumstances a few weeks ago! We are so excited to be traveling passed Tallahassee in about a month's time and will definitely be stopping by! 😄 Until then we will be watching and drooling 😋 see y'all soon
once my science teacher said that the heart has two chambers and the heart shape kinda reflects that cause it looks like you could split it in half or something
idk just what he said
The heart is two hearts together.
Mr. Steen Why is it then shaped exactly like one heart?
I’m really enjoying this stuff. Thanks for your videos dude. Love that you love what you do! If I’m ever in Florida I’ll stop by.
This is such a great channel. Thanks so much for the relaxation and fun.
i just notice the giant banana.
I love you Greg seriously from Belgium :D
I think it's so cool that he loves his job so much. Just makes me enjoy candy so much more! Your content is AWSOME!😀
This CZcams channel makes me feel so happy
I heard a theory of the heart shape once, and it kind of makes sense. So a heart represents love right? Well as gruesome as it sounds, it is actually 2 human hearts sewn together to show the love and connection between the people. Hope this makes sense but yeaah, it’s the only reason that I know that makes sense
You don't pronounce the "G" in Hagia Sophia.
Perhaps more importantly, while Ayasofya was indeed a mosque after it was a church, it's now a museum and anyone found to be practicing ANY sort of religious ritual while inside is escorted out. (My husband and I went to Istanbul for our wedding anniversary last year. Beautiful place, and I'm glad we were there before the politics got really out of hand.)
Excellent point. I spent a few months in Turkey a few years back, myself, though I didn't spend much time in Istanbul. I hope the things get better there soon. I still have friends there. Mostly academics and artists and I really worry for them.
That cheeky smile while pulling the candy tho just made me have to give a like. I salute your passion to your craft sir!
Just found this channel, I'm in love! I can't stop watching!
"Why are they heart shaped?" Bah!
The real question is: why in the hell would you _ever_ make a red hot?
An Alarming Number Of Bees finally questions that need answers!
how did I get here from survival/bushcraft?
Daemon Grimm your icon reminds me of what sumo wrestlers wear instead of clothes...
tymki its the IPU
Your videos are legit cause not only do you see how the candy is made but you get a history lesson as well as learning about something interesting.
Omg love this video. The music the candy and the I formation is just so great. Kudos for you man
wait is that a banana on the roof 😂 4:20
+Czarinah Morgan Yes. And there is a fairly good story about that.
Lofty Pursuits That's so cool id love to hear the story
420
The hagia sophia is a museum not a mosque, love your video keep up the good work
+Sirpokerface._. Sorry, my art history degree was coming into play. It was a mosque until 1935 but the time I studied was before that.
actually it's an Orthodox Church with spinnerets to make it look like a mosque. I wish they would give it back to the Orthodox to whom it belongs.
purplexenno it started as a church, it has been a mosque since the 1400s. I thought the still did special services there, but I was wrong. it has been a museum since the 30s.
yes i know, it was an Eastern Orthodox Church, I should know I'm Orthodox. The Church was taken over when the ottomans destroyed the Byzantine Empire, which was Orthodox.
Lofty Pursuits the history of the haiga sophia is incredible from it being an eastern orthodox church to a roman catholic church then back to a eastern orthodox church then a mosque and finally a museum its incredible how it took 1 year to build while western european churches took sometimes hundreds of years to construct i guess it shows how impressive construction was back then
You have a very pleasant voice ) I think I madly like listening to you because you're a good narrator. Thank you!
I've watched a couple of your videos now and they're consistently comfy-feeling and friendly. It gives me a Twin Peaks kinda feel, without the scary side.
+Baran Aygun Darn it, and I was going to have a donut on my way into work. I'd feel guilty if I had one now
this video took me back to my visit to Bornholm when i was a child. a small island in Denmark where one of the towns have a hard candy cookery as a tourist attraction. good memories, and thanks for taking me back :D
This is amazing! It's so informative and it's cool to watch how the candy is made!
i really like this channel, because even though im not super interested in candy making itself, the information makes it all worth it.
Greg- you're a cool dude and I get a lot of satisfaction watching your channel. Thanks, and keep up the hardwork.
Im pretty much addicted to your videos at this point! I watched like 20-30 videos yesterday while editing a video.
this is mesmerizing... the perfect video to find while waiting for a download to finish
I really love the music you use on your channel, and the incredibly informative voice over. I would really appreciate more information on where the music is from and anything else you could provide.
This was interesting and informative in several different ways, thanks for uploading!! And for doing what you do!
cool--you're a great narrator too--answer all the questions in a viewer's mind!
I love watching your candy making videos! plan o placing another order soon, your candy is delicious!
So glad this came in my recommended. Great video and interesting to see how your business functions! You seem like great people.
Amazing, informative, and made me subscribe. looking forward to watching and learning more.
also, the point where you're handing out candy reminded me of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, which made "the candy man can" get stuck in my head.
This..is.. amazing. I've learned so much from these videos.
Great video. Very interesting, fun to watch, and sir, your voice is a treasure.
Your voice is so soothing. God bless.
I really love your channel, you're so knowledgeable and your voice is smooth like caramel :) I'd love to visit your shop someday. Your passion for your vocation is admirable and heartwarming. I love cinnamon candies, so these are kinda making my mouth water... yummm
