    If you don’t claim *ownership* of the candy plant.. then you can’t fault anyone for forcibly restricting your access to ‘care’ for it. (or for ‘stealing’ the materials you use.)
    All you can do is *cry* about _mean people_ being _bullies._

    Nice shop.. now grow a pair & *own it* ..because I wouldn’t mind having it myself ..if you’re sure it doesn’t *belong* to anyone. 😜

    Things in the past were made to last and be passed down to generations; nowadays, it’s made to fill up the landfills!

    All I could focus on was all the long curly hair hanging over the candy. How much of that hair ends up in the sugary treats?

    Not sure why but when they’re cutting the image candy, they get a whole lot of shards and other candy debris, while other candy making videos I’ve seen don’t have this happen?

  94. Andie Mcgrath

    December 29, 2021 at 5:43 am

    called drop candy because you put drops of flavour into the sugar, not because you drop it

    I want to get into candy making so badly. Just small batch hard candies and lollipops 🍭 I’m a huge tea enthusiast and would love to combine the 2. I have the process down in my head but now just need to get the supplies and test it out ☺️🍭💕 hopefully this year I will have product. I find it all so fascinating and I’ve always been a sucker 😆 for candy 🍬. I could watch Lofty Pursuits ALL DAY

    Been a huge fan of Greg and Lofty Pursuits for several years now after a friend of mine brought some candy to a game night. Greg seriously knows his stuff and his passion for candy making is infectious. They make a lot of the flavors we all know and love, but my favorites are always their unique flavors like blueberry & strawberry shortcake, rose petals, and nectar. So happy to see Greg and Lofty Pursuits get recognized like this.

  364. Zachary Haney

    First, they take the dinglebop, and they smooth it out with a bunch of schleem. The schleem is then repurposed for later batches. They take the dinglebop and they push it through the grumbo, where the fleeb is rubbed against it. It’s important that the fleeb is rubbed, because the fleeb has all of the fleeb juice. Then a schlami shows up, and he rubs it and spits on it. They cut the fleeb. There’s several hizzards in the way. The blamfs rub against the chumbles. And the ploobis and grumbo are shaved away. That leaves you with a regular old plumbus.
