Oh! What?? No!!! Ever wondered what your face would look like
as a giant lollipop? Neither have we, but we found out anyway. Firebox is a London-based company that makes
custom lollipops the size of your entire face. We know, its a dream come true. All you gotta do is submit pictures of yourself
through their website and BAM, theyll send you the candy version right back.
Here are the pictures we sent in. You open it. Im scared. I see black on the lollipop so it must be Oh my god! No!! Oh! You dont see a surprise then.
No!! Why do I look 40?! What are these old-ass wrinkles? I went from 24 to 44 real quick. They cost a whopping $57 each and take around
2 weeks to ship if youre in the U.S. But theyre hand crafted, so you cant be
too impatient when living the couture dessert life. As terrifying as they are, we have to admit
the attention to detail is pretty impressive Aside from the fact that my lollipop looks
like shes 45.
Im trying not to take it personally. I still look good. CUT TO OUR PRETTY GLAMOUR SHOTS! We wanted to see how convincing they really are. Which was not at all! But we had a little fun around the office
anyway.
So we get that these lollipops are meant to
look like us, but the REAL question is, how do they taste? This is a part of Alexs ear from a candy. Can you eat it and see what it tastes like? Sugar? Does it have any flavor other than sugar? Is it fruit? Its some sort of fruit. A peach! Peach. It tastes like peach candy.
Its actually not bad. What does it taste like? Like peach. It turns out we actually taste pretty good. It doesnt just taste like sugar which
is honestly a relief because I could, and would, eat my entire face.
So are these really worth the hefty price tag? Probably not, but if you had $57 to drop on
a big-ass lollipop, this could be the perfect treat for you. Youre getting more than just a giant sucker
that looks like your face. The minor details are pretty on point and
would make it a great, unique gift for someone you know. Just make sure you send in a flattering picture
of them.
In conclusion, this big ol lollipop is extra AF, and we cant really tell you if dropping
$57 on a sucker is worth it. But if thats what youre into, then go for it!.
Hey guys, its Ro! Welcome to another Nerdy
Nummies! I got so many requests from you guys to make
something from the series Shannara Chronicles, and I love that series! For those of you who arent familiar, the
Shannara Chronicles is a fantasy TV. Series based on a book. Theres elves, theres
demons, theres questing, and without giving you any spoilers, I dont
want to spoil it for you, theres an artifact in the story thats very important,
theyre the Elfstones, theres 3 of them, theyre blue, and they kind of
glow, theyre really, really cool and rare! So today were gonna be making Elfstone
Lollipops. Lets get started! When I was searching for a mold that looked
like the Elfstones, I couldnt find one, there was not one out there similar, so today
I thought what a great opportunity, lets make our own custom mold, so today
we are gonna be making our own custom food molds, this is a really cool idea if youre
making a cake or you want to make chocolate melts, candy melts or even custom
ice cubes for something that doesnt exist, you can make anything you want.
The things you need to make these custom molds
will be: Food grade silicone plastique, it comes in 2 parts, Ill show you how to
use this in just a little bit. A scale, some polished stones, I know that
these arent the right color, but they are the right shape and size. Lollipop sticks,
blue Jolly Ranchers because the Elf stones are blue, theyre kind of this
glow-y blue color and the blue raspberry flavor is the perfect color! Something to
hold your mold in, Im using this tiny little cake pan. And, last but not least,
a heat safe cup.
Now lets put it all together! The first thing that were gonna do is make
our custom mold, you guys this is so cool, I feel like arts and crafts-y! The ratio
that you want is gonna be 1:1 you want them to be even. And I know that
I need 4 ounces of each to fill my mold. So it just depends how big your mold is. Ive got my scale in front of me.
Oh! 3.78!
Pretty close! Oh too much! Too much! Boom! 4! Im gonna put it over here, Im gonna
work quickly, Im gonna grab my second component and get another 4 ounces. Weve got our 2 components measured now,
4 ounces and 4 ounces, remember, whatever youre doing you want your ratio
to be 1:1, they have to be even. Now youre gonna mix them together with
your hands and keep kneading them together until theyve become 1 color, theyre
fully mixed. Then were gonna place them into your mold.
You have about 15 minutes
to work with your mold, place your objects in before it will set. And then setting
takes about an hour and a half. Were gonna mix them together now, this
reminds me a lot of fondant. Guys, right now, as were mixing this, a
chemical reaction is occurring.
Arts and crafts, and science! Weve got it mixed together, place it into
my mold container, its very sticky, so know that right when you put it in there
it will stick. Im just pressing it flat. Now we are going to customize our mold, youre
gonna take your stones over here, and Im just gonna place them. Youre
gonna want to push down your objects about 80 percent.
And just pick 3 of your favorite
stones. Im kind of clumping them together because I want this to be 1 lollipop. Our 3 stones are in there and now Im
gonna take that lollipop stick and Im just gonna eyeball it. Uh, ooop! Uh.
Now Im gonna press the lollipop in. Once youve got your custom mold assembled,
now youre just gonna let it sit. Let it sit for an hour and a half, leave everything
in there. And then after an hour and a half, were
gonna pop em all out.
And while this is setting, were gonna unwrap
our jolly ranchers, because weve got a bunch of em! Our custom mold has set, and now we are gonna
pop our our stones and lollipop, just gonna wiggle them out of there! Oh look at that you guys! The cool things about these molds is that
they are food grade, so you could even make like custom cake molds, and you can bake
these up to 450 degrees! Pretty neat-o! You can use these to make hard candy, custom
chocolates, ice cubes. Now Im just taking a dull butterknife and
Im just gonna pop the mold out. Gotta wiggle it in there and get it out! Boom! It feels like hard rubber, it can bend,
it holds its shape. And now we are gonna make some lollipops by heating our hard
candies.
I really like making lollipops this way because it is super easy
mode! I have made hard candies before, over the
stove. Weve done those in the past and, it works. This you just pop it in the
microwave. Were gonna heat our candy in short bursts,
the first burst is gonna be 30 seconds, and then 10 seconds each time after.
Were
gonna keep doing this until we have a nice liquid consistency! My candy is out of the microwave, I am waiting
for the bubbles to stop before I pour. Now, fill the mold, just be careful,
its hot, dont get your fingers! Weeeee-ooooooo! Alright, sticky-sticky! There we go. Then, take your lollipop stick,
and I like to slide in, from the bottom, straight into the middle. And then, gently
spin around.
Were gonna let our lollipop sit until it
gets hard. Its about 20-30 minutes, While the lollipop is setting, Im gonna
clean out my cup because I want to make more of these. And you dont want to leave
the candy in there before you make your next one because this candy right here will
start to caramelize and change color. And that is not what we want! We want bright blue, Shannara Chronicles Elfstones! The lollipop is hard, were gonna pop it
out now, ooooooohhh! This is so cool you guys, it looks just like
from the TV show! The 3 Elfstones represent the users mind,
body and spirit.
And you do have to be of elven descent to
use the Elfstones, but, you dont have to be of elven descent to
eat these! Im gonna place him here onto a baking sheet
lined with parchment paper, and Im gonna make some more for
my friends, you can make as many as youd like! Ta-da! Here are the Elfstone Lollipops that we made
today, from the Shannara Chronicles! A big thank you to you guys for suggesting
something from the series, I love the series, its super cool, and you guys,
its the first time on Nerdy Nummies we ever made a custom food mold. Its a
little arts-y crafts-y! And, this lollipop recipe is easy mode! So
if youre looking for an easy mode lollipop, this may be a good choice. Ill be posting lots of pictures of these
lollipops on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Tumblr, and if you guys make
these, please take a picture and send it to me, I love seeing your baking creations,
it just makes my day! And if you have any other ideas for any other
Nerdy Nummies, please let me know, leave me a comment down below and I will do
my best to make it happen! Alright, thanks again you guys, bye-bye!.

[Music] Hey guys, it's Heidi with Scandinavian Today. So, guess what we're going to be
doing today? Making sunflower treats. Ever since Frozen Fever came out, my
mother and I have been thinking about all the ideas we could be doing
with Frozen Fever. And, you know, she came out with her Sunflower
Twisted Bread recipe around that time, and it was so amazing.
If you guys haven't
seen the video, you should definitely check it out. It's a really super cool
bread video. So, I've come up with some fun treats and let's go inside
and get started to make some. Okay.
So, what we're
going to be needing today are, first you will need some type of candy chocolate, and here I have a
yellow one for the sunflower petals. And it's, you know, less than a
tablespoon. You really don't need that many pieces. And then here we have just
a few pieces that we will need for the center of the sunflower.
And here, I have
a candy brush. And then here we have two different size lollipop sticks.
Either lollipop stick will work. And then here, I have the yellow stuffed
Oreos, but you can certainly pick any flavor or color that you like. I just
thought it was fun to use the yellow stuffed Oreos just because we'll be making
sunflowers today.
And then we're going to be using hand-dipped chocolate Oreos.
So here, we have a mold with all kinds of patterns. And specifically, we're going
to be using the sunflower pattern here. And this mold is great because you can
make either as candies and also lollipops. So, we're going to be doing both today,
and let's head on over to the stove and start melting some candy.
Okay. I'm at the stove
right now. The water is about one-fourth full in this pot. I don't want
to fill it all the way to the top because then it'll boil over.
Then I'm going to
stick another pot into the pot of water. And in here, I have a few pieces of brown
chocolate. We're going to turn on the stove to very low heat and once it's
melted, we will be able to start working on our sunflowers. Okay, this looks great,
as you can see that the chocolate is now melted.
We're going to do the exact same
steps with the yellow chocolate candy. And, now let's head on over to the mold.
So first, I'm going to put a little bit of chocolate candy right here in
the center. It helps fill in the mold. Then, I take my candy brush and I move it,
the candy brush, around in the chocolate to fill in the areas where we want
it to have that dark brown color.
Okay. So now, I'm giving this a
good tap to get rid of the air bubbles. We're going to stick this in the
freezer for about 5 to 10 minutes. We want to make sure that the
brown chocolate candy has hardened.
Okay. So, I just took our candy mold out
and you can see it's kind of foggy and misty. That's when you know that the
chocolate is ready to continue being worked on. So now, I'm going to fill in
the yellow part of the sunflower with some yellow chocolate.
If you don't happen to
have a candy-bag, you can also use a teaspoon to gently put in the
chocolate into the molds. That's what I'm going to do here. [Music] Now, what you want to do is take a brush
and gently move the chocolate around into each of the petals. [Music] Great.
Now, give this a good tap and
you'll be able to see that the chocolate starts smoothening out. You
want to get rid of the air bubbles. Okay. So, I just took our candy mold out
of the freezer.
You can see it's nice and cloudy, which means it's perfect timing
for us to start giving our mold a nice little twist to release our sunflower
from the mold. Then, you flip it over. And there you go. Here is our first
sunflower candy treat.
Now, with the candy pieces, you can do all kinds of things
with it. You could add a sunflower candy to your cupcake. If you happen to have
some really pretty gift bags and tissue paper, make a bunch of these up for a
summer party and throw in some ribbon. And there you have party favors
that you can give.
Okay. So, another easy idea is, if you already have
a sunflower candy, you can attach it to a Oreo pop. So what you do, is you take a
little bit of some chocolate candy that's already been melted and you put it on
one of your Oreos, and then put it on top. Stick this in the freezer for at least an
hour.
And you'll be able to enjoy it shortly, as I did right here earlier
today. And then I tied it with a really cute ribbon, I thought these would
be fun to give as party favors. So, let's continue working on our molds,
and now we're going to make some sunflower lollipops. But if you want to make this
into a lollipop, all you have to do is attach a lollipop stick to the mold,
because there's a little insert here to do that, so it neatly places the
lollipop stick in this.
And then we're going to stick this in the freezer
for at least an hour or so. You want this to harden up. Okay. So,
I just took our sunflower lollipop out of the freezer and again, as you can see it's
nice and cloudy.
So, it's perfect timing for us to start moving the mold around,
so we can loosen up the sunflower. And then, all you do is turn it around,
and there you go. Here is our sunflower lollipop. All right.
So, let's say you
wanted to make a sunflower Oreo pop. What you could do is attach an Oreo
on the back of the sunflower and then add some more of the yellow candy onto
the Oreos. And now, we have our Oreo completely covered in yellow candy
chocolate. So now, I'm going to stick this in the freezer for about an hour
so the chocolate can harden.
So, I just took our
mold out of the freezer. And it's nice and cloudy, which means it's a perfect time for us to start giving
our mold a nice little twist and then we're going to flip it over. And there we
go. We have a sunflower Oreo lollipop.
Wow! Look at the assortment of
sunflower treats we made earlier today. I am so super excited to try one. So, I'm
going to have the sunflower Oreo lollipop. Let's head on outside to enjoy it.
So, I'm outside now
enjoying my sunflower Oreo lollipop. I hope you guys enjoyed our
video today. If you have any requests, make sure you let us know in the comments
section down below. We're definitely happy to do it.
My mother and I are constantly
reading your guys' comments and we're definitely inspired by some of your
fantastic ideas. And have a great week. Skl! See you later guys. Bye.
These lollipops are so small. I wish I had
a big one. Let's make one! In this video I'm going to show you how to
make the biggest lollipop in the world. I'll show you two different recipes, which are
both easy to make and super yummy to taste! Hey loves! I have a super exciting video to
share with you I'm going to show you how to make a giant lollipop.
I had so much fun
making it, it turned out amazing. Plus it tastes exactly like a store bought lollipop,
which is pretty awesome. I'm going to show you two different recipes. Both very easy
and super yummy.
So I hope you are in the mood for something sweet, because we're going
to get started. This is also a massive collab with Glitter
forever 17, Glamour life fox, Alejandro Valdes, Timmy Timato , Chelsea Crockett, SoCraftastic,
Gillian Bower and Clarissa May. We are all making giant slash edible DIYs. All videos
will be linked in the description bar, but first - here's how you can make a giant lollipop! Making a lollipop from scratch is super easy
and you probably already have all the ingredients at home.
For the first recipe we need a giant
mold, one part of water, one and a half parts of corn syrup, three and a half parts of sugar,
cooking pot, candy thermometer, food coloring, flavoring of your choice and a lollipop stick. First let's prepare the mold. I am making
mine in this large pink tray. We have got to cut out the opening for our huge lollipop
stick.
Take a cooking pan mine has to be pretty
huge. I am using about 7 and a half cups of sugar, 3 cups of corn syrup and 2 cups of
water. If you are making smaller lollipops you will of course need much less of these
ingredients. Place the pan with your sugar, water and corn syrup mixture on the stove
and start cooking at a medium heat.
Be sure to stir it constantly so that it doesn't burn.
When the mixture starts boiling it's time to add the color to your lollipop I am
using yellow. The lollipop has a nice caramell-ish taste by default, but you can add flavor of
your choice as well. Dip a candy thermometer into your mixture and wait until the mix reaches
the temperature of 300 Fahrenheit or 150 degrees Celsius. Your mixture has to reach this temperature
if you want your lollipop to set hard.
Now we can take our pan off the heat and pour
our melted lollipop into the mold to set. As you can see I covered my mold with parchment
paper to assure that the lollipop won't stick to the tray. Be very careful as the mixture
is super hot and you might need to ask an adult to help you. Look at this awesome bubbles
our lollipop is making wow, so cool! Leave your lollipop to cool down completely.
OK, time to take this beauty out of the mold!
Remove the parchment paper and look at this masterpiece! I decided to take my lollipop
to the next level and add a pair of eyes and mouth to it. So let's quickly make a blue
lollipop mixture to pour in. In the bowl I. Am putting three and a half parts of sugar,
one and a half parts of corn syrup and and one part water.
Bring that to a boil while
constantly stirring. I added a bit of blue food coloring. Keep stirring until the mixture
reaches the hard crack stage at 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Now we can pour the blue lollipop
mix into the eye and mouth molds.
I made these little molds from cardboard and parchment
paper. I think giving a face to our lollipop made
it so much more special! Once this is completely set, you can remove the molds and look at
this perfection! I mean come on! Isn't it crazy beautiful?! I am so pleased with how
this lollipop turned out. And honestly I was pretty surprised to find out that it tastes
exactly like store bought lollipops. You can of course make yours using any color you like.
I chose yellow for mine because I wanted it to look like emoji.
I had so much fun with
this DIY and I couldn't be happier with the result. Me and Mr lollipop we've really bonded,
yeah we're BFFs. If you want to make small and a bit more practical
lollipops you can just pour the mixture on a parchment paper. These lollies set very
quickly because they are thin and small.
The ingredients are so affordable and just think
how many lollipops you can make using one cup of sugar. A lot of lollipops! You can
make them using different colors and they taste amazing! Alternatively you can just
pour the mixture on a tray, like I'm doing here. You get this large sweet piece which
you can then crush into little hard candy pieces. Yummy and inexpensive treat! You shall not pass! Oh no! Since in some countries corn syrup is a bit
hard to get hold of, I am going to show you how you can make a lollipop without it! I'll
make this big yummy heart lollipop.
You'll need a cooking pan, a silicone mold
of your choice, one part of water, two parts of sugar, food coloring and a lollipop stick.
Yep only three ingredients, how cool is that? Let's prepare our mold first. Using a knife
make a cross cut in the mold edge like this. Take any kind of stick, I just decided to
use a wooden cooking spoon and put it through the opening. Grab some oil or a non stick
cooking spray and spray a few times into the mold to make sure your lollipop won't stick.
Now let's put together our three ingredient
lollipop. Put two parts of sugar and one part of water into a cooking pan. Just make sure
that the amount of sugar is double the amount of water. Give it a quick stir and put the
pan over the stove.
Cook on low to medium heat while constantly stirring. When the mixture
starts boiling you can put in a bit of food coloring. This time I went for the beautiful
teal color. Keep boiling and stirring until the melted sugar reaches 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
Time for the fun part we can now pour our lolly mixture into the mold and wait for
it to cool completely.
I think it's so fascinating to watch the mixture cooling down. These bubbles
are completely mesmerizing. Once your lollipop is set, you can take it out of the mold and
you are finished! How flipping adorable! And to think that we only needed water, sugar
and food coloring to make this. Crazy! Making my own lollipops was seriously so much
fun.
When I first started thinking of making a giant lollipop I thought it would be so
tricky and complicated. It is the same in life. Going into the unknown to try new things
may be scary and intimidating. But sometimes you just have to jump in and have faith that
great things will happen.
Don't think about everything that could go wrong, focus on the
positive instead and fight the obstacles when they arrive. Gosh, those are some pretty deep
thoughts for a lollipop tutorial. Hope you liked this giant lollipop tutorial!
Give it some love for more DIY videos and tell me in the comments which lollipop flavor
is your favorite. Imagine you're in a store.
You're about to pick a lollipop. Which flavor
do you chose? I normally go for Cola and sometimes apple. Anyway, thank you so much for watching
this video and don't forget to check out other videos from this collab, they are all pretty
epic, and I will see you soon. Bye! They say that it's the little things in life
that count the most.
I agree, but there's also big or giant things in life that make
it that extra special ;).
