1
I've been seeing these sour blue raspberry gushers all over my TikTok.
2
And it costs $30 for a tiny little jar.
3
So this video with 500,000 views shows us how to make it at home.
4
So she starts by emptying all of her gushers into a bowl.
5
They're all kind of stuck together.
6
Then she pours in a little bit of simple syrup, which is just equal parts sugar and water.
7
And then she adds citric acid, which is what makes it nice and sour.
8
I love my candy sour.
9
Then to make it that blue raspberry, she adds this thing called baby bottle pop.
10
It's just the blue powder in a baby bottle.
11
And then she dumps the whole thing in there.
12
I feel like that's a lot.
13
She adds even more blue with a jello mix.
14
Oh, that gives it like a bigger bluish granule.
15
And then the simple syrup is turning the blue into like this very deep color.
16
Whoa, wait.
17
Yeah, I definitely think it needs more of that powder.
18
So she was right to add more of that baby bottle pop and a little bit more jello.
19
While we're at it Let's add more sour to it too.
20
Wow.
21
It smells insane And this looks exactly like that sour candy that you can find on Tik Tok shop.
22
That is so sour and I love it Oh my gosh, ten out of ten But if the rest of the seven candies
23
that I'm making are anywhere nearly as good as this we're in for a treat Literally.
24
Now we're gonna make a classic gummy worms with only three ingredients and this one got 1.3 million views.
25
So my friend Brittany starts by pouring one cup of fruit juice into a saucepan.
26
I'm actually gonna be using lemonade because it adds a little bit of tartness
27
and then she adds in a little bit of sweetener.
28
I'm gonna be using some maple syrup and then we're gonna pour in our gelatin.
29
Now she mixes it up, lets everything dissolve for about three minutes on low heat and then we're gonna transfer it into some bowls.
30
Someone said just like the ones at the store.
31
No, these are way better.
32
Honestly, my two favorite colored gummies have always been like the orange and the green.
33
So that's what we're gonna do.
34
Just like her, I'm using natural dye.
35
So it's giving off a little bit more of a natural color.
36
Oh, actually, that's pretty.
37
Okay, so now I have my gummy worm mold.
38
But I've learned that you actually have to oil them or else they're impossible to get out.
39
Now comes the fun part.
40
So these mold came with these two droppers.
41
And what you're supposed to do is get a little bit of each of the color.
42
And then you fill the worms from both ends so that you get two different colors.
43
Hopefully they don't mix.
44
So now we're supposed to let them chill and set for about 15 minutes.
45
Someone said, but they're more jello texture versus gummy.
46
And then someone else said, if you let them air out overnight, they'll dry out and be more gummy.
47
These do look like gummy worms.
48
They're nice and stretchy and they're not...
49
They're so cute.
50
I should have used two drastically different colors because you can barely see the two-tone here.
51
Now we have to test it, but I love how it looks and how jiggly it is.
52
It has that bounce and chew to it, but it's not quite super chewy.
53
So I would try to leave this out overnight to try to dry it out, but I do wonder...
54
What if we made them sour?
55
They're perfect.
56
9 out of 10.
57
Now with 2.1 million views, all you need are two ingredients to make your favorite nerd gummy clusters.
58
Of course you could just buy it, but like...
59
Because someone said, oh my god, I need this ASAP.
60
Those cluster bags are getting so expensive.
61
She starts by pouring her nerd boxes onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
62
And then she pours a cup of her gummy bears into a Pyrex.
63
So basically the whole bag.
64
Microwaves it for two minutes.
65
Okay, it goes without saying that if you're going to heat sugar in the microwave, be careful.
66
Her direction says two minutes, but mine started boiling at like a minute.
67
Ooh.
68
And then she actually pours the melted gummy into a bag.
69
But I feel like we can just pour a little dollop since it's already in a cup.
70
This is actually how I do my nerd rope.
71
So we're gonna try that too.
72
Oh, and then she pours more nerds on top.
73
So I have to just grab some.
74
Oh, they dry kind of fast.
75
So you have to kind of move.
76
Wait, that's kind of fun.
77
Okay, now I'm gonna try a rope.
78
It didn't come out into like a nice straight line.
79
It's very sticky.
80
Bingsu slime right here.
81
It's stuck.
82
Let's make a few more clusters, shall we?
83
Now she says to refrigerate it for three hours, but some of the smaller ones are already setting, so I'm just gonna chill it for a few minutes.
84
It's set in the fridge for about 20 minutes, and I feel like the gummy clusters are hard enough.
85
Let's see how our rope did.
86
It's kind of a deformed rope.
87
I got this big cluster right here.
88
That's the size of clusters I like to see.
89
And now she does this amazing stretch.
90
And that right there is the most satisfying part.
91
Oh my gosh.
92
I love this.
93
It honestly tastes just like the real thing.
94
But someone had to be a hater and say, seems like a waste of time.
95
Spend the $3 and save an hour.
96
But honestly, that was time well spent because it was so fun.
97
9 out of 10.
98
Now we're going to do a little science experiment and turn plain white sugar into rocks.
99
Crystals, really.
100
It's rock candy and it looks so cool.
101
But apparently all you need is some sugar and water, and you first start by dipping a skewer into some water.
102
It's called seeding.
103
Roll it around in the sugar mixture, and this is supposed to help your sugar grow.
104
Someone said this is not rock candy.
105
That is traptanumum.
106
Traptanumum.
107
Now I'm just going to place the skewer in this jar and let it dry for 15 minutes.
108
Okay, so to make the mixture, add one cup of water, bring it to a boil, and then sprinkle in about a cup of sugar at a time.
109
Two and a half cups.
110
It takes a lot of sugar to make sugar crystals.
111
The sugar water is so thick.
112
Although she doesn't say to what degree, so I'm just gonna let it bubble and be clear.
113
I feel like that's good.
114
Okay, I'm gonna let it cool completely before I pour it into the jar.
115
I try to do this, but the sugar that I boiled and put in the jar completely hardened.
116
Someone else said that's their worst nightmare.
117
Spill, you spill.
118
And then she adds a few drops of food coloring or she says flavoring if you want.
119
I'm just gonna make it pink and cotton candy flavored.
120
Ooh, so pretty.
121
She says the stick has to be completely dry.
122
Yep, it's nice and crusty.
123
Clamps it and then drops it into the jar, but she says make sure that the tip does not touch the bottom of the jar.
124
Ta-da!
125
But now we're supposed to let the sugar crystals grow for a whole week.
126
So I'm gonna set this over there and we're gonna check it later in the video.
127
Now with 2.8 million views, it's cotton candy burrito.
128
So she starts by making her layers of cotton candy.
129
There's three different colors.
130
If you want this a little healthier, Someone said this would be so good on grapes instead of gushers.
131
So we're gonna start with some pink.
132
Ugh, it's going out so fast!
133
I'm trying to make it as fluffy as possible.
134
Dang, this just keeps going and going.
135
One color, done.
136
Now she lays it down.
137
I'm gonna try to leave it as fluffy as possible.
138
Now we'll do blue.
139
This is looking like a blue cotton candy unicorn.
140
Okay, now I layer this one kind of sideways on top of the pink one.
141
We're gonna mix yellow with pink because this next layer looks kind of peachy.
142
This color is so pretty, oh my gosh.
143
I love it.
144
Now she lays this one back over, and then we kind of flatten it out like a big tortilla.
145
Ah, moisture is the killer.
146
Must work fast.
147
She then throws on a bunch of the best part of Lucky Charms, marshmallows.
148
Oh, this is harder than it looks.
149
I think the frost from the ice cream is causing this to melt.
150
And now we drop in some cosmic looking ice cream and strawberry.
151
Folds in the sides and wraps it like a burrito.
152
This is harder than it looks.
153
Oh my gosh.
154
Oh my gosh, that looks so cool.
155
What?
156
It definitely deflated way more than hers.
157
But someone said impossible to eat.
158
Yes.
159
But do I still want this and would give anything for it?
160
Yes.
161
Somebody else said my teeth right now.
162
Dead, dead, dead.
163
This is a diabetes speed run, but I'm not gonna lie, it's amazing.
164
Nine out of 10, but I'm gonna go eat a broccoli now.
165
Did you know we can make sour candy straws?
166
This one has 13 million views.
167
Okay, so she has a plate full of water, and then to make it sour, she adds juice from a whole line.
168
I hope this makes it sour enough.
169
Then she takes rice paper, cuts it in half, dips them both, and then she rolls them up with some fruit.
170
The only time I've ever used these to roll anything up was with veggies and meat for spring rolls.
171
She layers in strawberries first and then rolls.
172
I mean, I wouldn't be calling these sour straws.
173
These are more like fruit roll-ups to me.
174
I'm trying to get them to be more like straws instead of a burrito.
175
But someone said these remind them of squinkle rellenos.
176
I almost feel like jam would have been better.
177
Okay, then the next one, mango with chamoy, which actually sounds so good.
178
It's so wet and slippery.
179
The fruit just keeps falling out.
180
Okay, a little better this time.
181
Roll and tuck.
182
So now she rolls the straws in some sugar coating.
183
And for the strawberry, she does sugar with freeze-dried strawberries.
184
So I need to blitz this real quick.
185
And then for the mango one, some sugar and some tahin.
186
Now we just roll our straws in the sugar.
187
Oh, it actually catches on pretty well.
188
Well, that looks yummy.
189
Someone said they're shocked by how good these look.
190
I can confirm they're not sour.
191
The powder went down the wrong height.
192
But they're not bad.
193
Not candy, not a straw.
194
Literally a sweet spring roll covered in sugar.
195
Five out of 10.
196
Now with 20 million views, we're gonna make wax candy.
197
She starts by melting a whole block of wax.
198
I went online trying to find beeswax that was food grade, and mine doesn't exactly look like hers.
199
People were so confused.
200
Can I eat the wax part or no?
201
They melt almost immediately.
202
They look more like butter sticks than beeswax sticks.
203
Honestly, it smells like honey.
204
It smells so good.
205
She pours it into a Pyrex cup and then she has all these molds.
206
The coolest one she did was with this Dubai chocolate bar.
207
She just covers the bottom.
208
Let me get the sides covered.
209
So I think that the wax that I bought was like the unfiltered pure natural kind.
210
And I made sure to buy the food grade kind because someone in here said, I saw a girl make wax candy, but she used dot dot dot candle wax.
211
And I'm pretty sure you can't eat that.
212
This one's starting to harden, so I have to dump the rest out.
213
Oh, it does leave a nice little shell.
214
Then they fill it up with some jam.
215
I'm going to use some strawberry on these strawberry molds.
216
This wax candy really just jam in the middle.
217
And then for these orange slices, I have this lemon honey jam.
218
So this one, she does a cool ombre effect where she'll go lightest to darkest.
219
It looks so pretty.
220
I had to melt more wax to cover everything.
221
Okay, now she says just pop it in the fridge for like 20 minutes until everything gets nice and hard.
222
It's ready.
223
It feels nice and hard.
224
Part of me is like afraid of breaking it even though I know wax is pretty sturdy.
225
Oh, wow.
226
The little dimples in the wax.
227
It actually looks like a little strawberry.
228
An albino one.
229
That's so cute.
230
Now we get our citron.
231
I gotta work on my wax coverage.
232
Oh, what?
233
Whoa!
234
You can't really see through mine as much as you could with hers, but it's got like a stained glass vibe.
235
How exactly are you supposed to eat this?
236
Chew the wax like gum and then you spit it out.
237
It reminds me of my days of wearing braces, where I would just be chewing on the wax that goes over the metal piece.
238
Five out of ten.
239
Now with 42.3 million views, This creator calls it hand-pooled cotton candy, but it's actually known as dragon's beard,
240
and it's supposed to be the hardest candy to make ever.
241
So she starts actually by pouring water, but she forgot to tell us about the sugar.
242
Then I'm gonna pour half a cup of water, two tablespoons of corn syrup, a quarter teaspoon of vinegar, and some food coloring.
243
She uses blue.
244
I'm gonna go for pink.
245
And then she says to bring it to a boil, and if it's not exactly 260 degrees, it's not gonna work.
246
So I'm gonna whip out my candy thermometer and park it right here.
247
And then she says not to touch it because you don't want the sugar to crystallize.
248
I'm thinking this process is gonna probably take me around five minutes to come to town.
249
We've hit 260.
250
Kinda went a little over.
251
But now she pours hers into little circular containers.
252
A lot of people pour them into these donut silicone molds, which I feel like might be easier.
253
Okay, so this is super hot to work with right now
254
so we have to let it cool for about 30 minutes she says it's firm
255
but still pliable and now she pours cornstarch into a container
256
and we're gonna start pulling it's like the consistency of a jolly rancher it's pretty sticky
257
which is probably why she says dip it in a lot of powder
258
and then she says a lot of people like to pull but don't pull just squeeze to get it to thin out.
259
And once it's big enough like this, she double loops it.
260
Oh man, mine's kind of breaking.
261
No!
262
I wonder if I put two donuts together, they would be stronger.
263
She was able to stretch hers to get a million strands.
264
Someone said, a million strands sounds like a lot of work, but it's actually like 20 folds and pulls.
265
Broke already.
266
Gosh.
267
Round two, also a fail.
268
Good thing I have one left.
269
This has to work.
270
They did say that this is the hardest candy ever to make.
271
I'm not gonna squeeze too much.
272
At least we went a little further than last time.
273
16. I just need to get to 100 guys.
274
132 and it broke.
275
I'm not the only one with the struggle
276
because someone else said this was not hard but proceeded to spend two hours trying to make this.
277
I don't love all that corn starch
278
but it has a consistency of a high chew and
279
if I were to flavor it with something sour and green apple it'd be really good.
280
7 out of 10.
281
It's time to revisit our rock sugar.
282
I mean by day two I noticed something wasn't right.
283
Yeah, it didn't exactly turn rock hard, but it's definitely really murky.
284
So I tried again twice.
285
In each one I did a little bit differently.
286
This one was with a bigger sugar crystal, turbinado sugar.
287
I thought maybe a bigger crystal would create bigger rocks.
288
And then I tried the exact same process as this one, except I poured the syrup into the jar to cool.
289
Rocks definitely formed a little bit better than this one.
290
And this one, oh my gosh, I can't even get it out.
291
What's going on?
292
Ooh!
293
These are big crystals!
294
Actually, though, it looks very similar to my store-bought one, except mine didn't turn a pretty pink color.
295
You're supposed to dry it completely, but there's a nice crunch to this.
296
Seven out of ten.
297
And finally, with 52.7 million views, this is that famous candy from Squid Games, the Dalgona.
298
But he starts off by adding three tablespoons of sugar into a little pan.
299
He just keeps stirring it until it caramelizes into a nice golden brown.
300
He uses a metal knife to stir it.
301
Don't do that.
302
I'm just going to use a wooden chopstick to kind of move it around.
303
And I could feel the sugar already sweating.
304
Get ready to mess up a lot because it took me five tries before I got it right.
305
Kept burning it.
306
I'm going to pay close attention here.
307
Someone else said, go ahead and try your luck.
308
Oh, this is going fast.
309
The edges are starting to get brown.
310
Whoa, that went super fast.
311
I was not ready for that.
312
Okay, now I'm just gonna kind of break up the clumps.
313
It's getting a little amber yellow.
314
And then he adds in a tiny pinch of baking soda.
315
Whoa, it's starting to bubble.
316
And then it's turning into that like lighter, Dalgona-ish color.
317
Whoa, that's so cool.
318
Now we pour it onto the surface And then we just get something flat.
319
I'm gonna use the same pan.
320
Oh, please don't stick.
321
Oh, it didn't stick.
322
Oh, what?
323
It kind of stuck.
324
And then I just imprint it with my star cookie cutter.
325
That worked out really well.
326
I'm gonna try it to this one.
327
Oh, I waited too long.
328
So I had it work super fast and it did get some big bubbles.
329
Someone in the comments said, if it's not working for you, you probably use too much baking soda, which I thought I used only a pinch.
330
A pinch goes a long way anymore.
331
You get a lot of bubbles and it burns.
332
Well, I got two of the shapes.
333
I couldn't find an umbrella or the triangle.
334
I'm gonna go ahead and try my luck with the earring because I don't have a needle.
335
Oh, I already lost.
336
Oh my gosh.
337
I mean, where's my $500,000, Jimmy?
338

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
