Hard Candy Machine

1. Choose your desired flavor of hard candy.
2. Place the hard candy into the hopper of the machine.
3. Insert the straw into the hole on top of the machine and insert it into the soft candy below.
4. Turn on the machine and wait until the candy begins to turn into cotton candy.
5. Enjoy your delicious treat!

Yes, you can put hard candy in a cotton candy machine, but it will not turn out as well as if you use sugar syrup.

Manufacturing hard candy is a difficult process that requires a lot of different ingredients and techniques. Here’s a look at how it’s done:

1. First, the sugar is heated until it turns into syrup. This is done by either boiling the sugar in water or using a commercial candy making machine.

2. Then, the syrup is mixed with other ingredients such as cornstarch, flavoring agents, and emulsifiers. These ingredients help to create the desired consistency and flavor for the final product.

3. The mixture is then poured into molds and allowed to cool. Afterward, it’s cut into pieces and packaged for sale.

Yes, you can make hard candy in silicone molds. Silicone molds provide a consistent and accurate shape for your candy, which can be helpful if you are looking for a particular shape or size. Additionally, silicone molds are non-toxic and BPA-free, so they are safe to use.

Most hard candies are made with a range of temperatures that the candy will be at while it is being made.

The ideal temperature for hard candy making is around 300 degrees. This temperature ensures that the fats and sugar in the candy are cooked evenly, and that the candy will be a solid piece when it comes out of the oven.

At temperatures below 300 degrees, liquid ingredients can start to form and this can lead to a sticky or gummy mass when the candy is finished.

Above 350 degrees, the sugars in the candy can start to caramelize and this results in a sweeter flavor and harder texture.

Here are a few tips on how to clean a cotton candy machine:

1. Remove all the cups and spoons from the machine.
2. Pour a pot of hot water into the machine and let it sit for 30 minutes.
3. Wet a cloth and wring it out.
4. Put the cloth over the top of the machine and turn it on to high heat.
5. When the cloth becomes hot, start wiping down all of the parts of the machine with it. Be sure to get inside all of the crevices!
6. Turn off the heat and let the machine cool down before you put anything back in it.

These two are different molding methods, one is punching mold and the other is pouring.
The boiling at the front end and the cooling at the back end are the same for both molding methods.
In the case of punching, the boiled syrup is passed through the cooling table, batch roller, rope sizer, and punch molding machine, and then the candy is formed. The production line of punching mold needs manual guards for each process, and the candy strips are easily contaminated by multiple processes.
Pouring is the process of pouring the boiled syrup into the candy mold through the pouring machine and then cooling and demoulding to get the hard candy.

The sugar syrup can be rapidly increased by the film boiling machine, which can reduce the production of reducing sugar and air bubbles, thus reducing the air bubbles in the candy and making the candy more permeable. The sugar produced by the film boiling machine has less water content and longer shelf life.

Our hard candy molds are aluminum coated with Teflon. It is not recommended to use silicone molds. Metal molds are durable and easy to demold, silicone molds are not heat resistant for hard candy so it is not recommended.
