Turning styrofoam into cinnamon candy!
Added 2024-03-15 20:40:36 +0000 UTCHey guys, I am happy to be finally posting the first video of the year, which was actually meant to be posted over a month ago.
There were some major delays and issues which prevented that, but I am glad that it is finally done.
Let me know what you think and I hope you guys enjoy it!

2024-03-18 18:18:03 +0000 UTCI was originally just doing them sporadically, but I think I should try and do a live stream after every post. I will likely try to have one this week or next week!

2024-03-17 16:47:06 +0000 UTCThat's possible! I was also thinking that the powder just picked up some moisture from the air (I ended up leaving it out for a day or so before doing the reaction)

2024-03-17 15:21:11 +0000 UTCThat is something that I have been wanting to do for a while. Maybe one day I will!

2024-03-17 15:19:29 +0000 UTCI totally agree. I had watched so many candy making videos though that it really didn't seem like I had to. I really felt like I could get it to work without any issue

2024-03-17 15:19:07 +0000 UTCI know how hindsight works and how patience works, but it seems like you could’ve practiced the candy part first without risking your precious cinnamon oil.

2024-03-16 19:45:35 +0000 UTCI like the food crossovers. Vanilla from sawdust would be fun.

2024-03-16 17:53:53 +0000 UTCIs it possible the water was from the acetone nail polish remover? If it was nail polish remover and not pure acetone you probably had water in there that didn’t evaporate while turning it into a powder, since you never heated it.

2024-03-16 15:34:44 +0000 UTCRuddy brilliant, they looked the real item in the end. The cinnamon candies I grew up with were always much more gummy, like Mike N Ikes

2024-03-16 05:00:28 +0000 UTCWell, this is a nice way to start a Saturday morning!!
Jessica Johnston
2024-03-16 00:03:55 +0000 UTCIt kind of looks like you got crystallization of the candy. The cornsyrup is supposed to stabilize the sugar so Idk what happened. You may consider next time to use a hotpad since you're making a very small amount of candy for that type of drop roller (the metal dyes are a great heat sync).

2024-03-16 00:01:32 +0000 UTCMonths of work and a 6.500 dollar candy maker for his precious cinnamon hearts. Thats dedication!

2024-03-15 22:46:21 +0000 UTCI was a bit concerned about having a heating element open to solvent fumes, but it probably would've been fine!

2024-03-15 21:22:55 +0000 UTCYou ought to buy yourself a food dehydrator. With it, you could have placed the chunks of polystyrene inside it while having the dehydrator inside the fume hood overnight.
