Reddit mentions: The best candy making supplies

Awh, that sounds like a good night, at least. I mean, at least you weren't stressed out or running around and you were able to relax together, albeit doing different things. My boyfriend and I usually have our respective Me time as we mostly stay in and hangout with each other. We're both pretty broke right now, too, so until I get a job we won't be doing too much of anything. I LOVE to bake, and he loves to eat my baked goods, so I would definitely want to bake something for him! Perhaps some tasty mini filled cakes that are root beer float themed-root beer flavored cakes with a creamy vanilla filling. (He has requested that flavor combination to be included in one of my next creations.) Or I could make some mini ice cream sandwiches! Ahhh they're SO cute! These ones are adorable, too! Vanilla cookies with orange cream ice cream, because we just found a half pint ice cream maker at the thrift store (still in the box sealed, $7!!) and I want to use it for something adorable. Of course, if I were baking I would need an oven mitt so I didn't burn myself =P My favorite mitt got a hole right between the thumb and the rest of the mitt. Fail. Let's be honest, this freaking mixer would make my LIFE, not just my night, but that will just have to wait until I win the lottery or something. ;P

After baking, we could both lounge around and I would make some cool crafts. I have been wanting to make coasters using these dyes and/or these dyes or these ones and alcohol on some ceramic tiles. Look! How freaking awesome, right?! Cool times. (How old are your kiddos? These would be SO much fun to make with kids!! Have them sign their names in sharpies with the date!) Plus then our wood coffee table won't be ruined. So, you know, that would be good. While I'm crafting he would certainly be playing some video games. He has been lusting over Dead Space 3 FOREVER. (So, if I happen to win and it is within the budget, that is the top item for me, because I know how happy he would be to have it and I can't afford to get it for him right meow.)

While waiting for the crafts to dry I would play with my kitties. This toy is awesome looking. Once the kitties were all tuckered out, I would seal the tiles and then I would absolutely want to paint my nails. Boyfriend would still be playing video games so I would sit next to him on the couch and paint nails and watch him own. He's so good at shooting games, I love watching him play! I'm sure he would be eating some of the fresh bakery, too =) I would paint them this most amazing green color EVAR with some glitter on top. Then, because I don't know when to stop with anything having to do with my nails, would add these super freaking cool studs to them!

After all that I would be pretty tired, so I would just lounge around on the couch waiting for my nails to dry while he inevitably still played his game. lol. Yes, this would be perfect me time and him time and us time and just a perfect night in! This is a really cool contest idea! <3

Sounds like fun! I'll have to do this later

someone needs to wear these maybe even her...

You should decorate the lab with this

These would be great to fill with candy as party favors

.... or ....

TEST TUBE BUBBLES!!!! These things are touchable bubbles. PRO TIP: USe ONLY OUTSIDE. Shit makes a mess on the carpet. Easy to vacuum... but still...

Crazy cookie cutters which are perfect for this!

Temporary tattoos

Atomic super balls would be fun too!

A jello brain mold

Biohazard bags for party favors maybe

A geyser aka mentos/coke mixer for kids. That looks fun enough to get for myself. lol

Gravity goo something I would also play with. lol

Insta-snow seems like a good experiment for kids

I should stop now. I used to love planning my kids parties when they were little. Damn them for growing up.

I use either a food processor, a stick blender, or just mash some things like squash, banana, avocado and sweet potatoes. I roast lots of the root veggies or tubers (carrots, parsnip, sweet potatoes, etc) and steam most everything else. I also do larger batches and freeze them using these baking molds. Each little square is about a tablespoon, once frozen, it's super easy to pop them out, store in a ziplock and I'll be able to use the molds in the future for baking once we're done with purees.


For meat I steam or saute and then puree as well as I can in the food processor. LO doesn't mind a bit of texture so meat is usually still a bit lumpy. I then make tiny meatballs and freeze them on a cookie sheet and store in a ziplock bag.


When getting food together for a meal I just pull a few different things out and make some mixes that sounds good to me. Carrots with sweet potatoes or parsnip, peas with chicken, plums and oatmeal. I also give her avocado and bananas, which I just mash up as needed. We also add a tiny bit of spices sometimes. We have avoided cinnamon though since it is a pretty common skin irritant in babies. Some of it is trial and error, but it's such a small amount of food it's doesn't feel like you are wasting it if they don't like it.


Also, just a heads up but it's pretty common for babies to get constipated when they start solids. Make sure you are offering some water. We also always make sure we are giving her a "poo friendly" food at ever meal. These include peas, plums, prunes, peaches, pears; super easy to remember since they all start with "p" as does poo, haha!

Good luck and enjoy all the fun faces when you LO is trying new foods!

To add to everyone else, please get a scale. Are you new to this? Stay away from essential oils and milk till you get at least some YouTube videos on it down. I would just toss this batch because it's hard knowing where exactly you went wrong. Also, start small. Your batch is like 9 pounds and not many people start out that big. My first batch was 2.5 and I used individual soap molds. If you cook in that pan, you can't anymore. You might want to toss it. Get a wood/silicone mold for soap. It's going to be hell trying to get soap out of there. Also, if you really wanted to keep that as a soap pan, line it with wax/freezer paper to make it easier to get out. I'm sorry there are just so many mistakes here and maybe watch some videos by SoapQueenTV and Soaping101 on YouTube or pick up a few books. I'm not sure who inspired you to make soap but please please please do more research. You need to read up on lye, get a good soap calculator, read up on essential oils, safety, what to use for molds, oil properties...everything. I put the there because I want to mention that one ounce of lavender wouldn't have done much for that recipe. It would have most likely fade very fast.

Don't let people scare you off of using a ton of cocoa butter. I've used it up to 50% of a bar and had something decent. Your bar would not have come out right either way. Nothing in there would have created a lather you needed and it might have been semi-soft for a long time. I recommend getting some coconut oil, investing in Palm Oil/Lard/Tallow for conditioning and lather, olive oil, and castor oil to boost lather.

I know there's been a ton of BEC posts, but I was really happy with how easy and fast this was, mostly due to the silicone "bun" mold, and silicone egg rings. You don't need to even spray the mold and the buns/cookies/whatever just pop right out. I'm terrible at baking so this method is a bit of a personal triumph. I use these all the time now.

1. Make yo buns, recipe here. The nut butter will help the buns toast/crisp, but I used a little less than called for so I could spend carbs on a small amount of ketchup at the end. When finished, wait a few minutes and toast them with cheddar cheese on top.
   
   
2. Cook 3 strips of bacon until nice and crispy
   
   
3. Remove bacon and put silicone egg ring right in the middle of pan/grease. I like my sandwich eggs on the harder side, so I scrambled it slightly within the ring, and then covered with a small piece of tin foil.
   
   
4. Add field greens and bacon or whatever strikes your fancy. Assemble the whole, perfect-fitting nomwich.
   
   Takeaway: Next time, I'll make the buns even thinner. They had great structural integrity. Don't worry if your batter comes out somewhat thin, it will form up quickly.
   
   Net Carbs: 2.5 (5.5 with a little ketchup)
   
   Fat: 31g
   
   EDIT: Formatting

I use a Soxhlet extractor with Everclear (95% ethanol) as the solvent. Then I add water, and distill off the ethanol to reuse. From 25g of ground dry jalapenos, I end up with 250ml of flavored water. For a less potent batch, you can make due with juice from a jar of sliced jalapenos, which is how I used to make them.

• Mix 4oz of the jalapeno water with 4oz of lime juice in a small bowl.
  
• Add 4tbsp of powdered gelatin and allow it to hydrate/bloom. (It should become like apple sauce.)
  
• Meanwhile, warm 4oz of honey in a sauce pan on a low/med flame.
  
• Carefully add the gelatin to the honey, and stir until any chunks melt.
  
• Pour the result into silicone gummy molds and leave out to cool for about an hour.
  
• Stack and refrigerate molds for at least an hour. Overnight is fine, and will make them firmer and easier to remove.
  
  I use two sets of these for a recipe, and almost fill them. I've been playing with different ways to get them into the molds. A polyethylene squeeze bottle for candy making works well but gets hot, so I suggest using gloves. I've recently started using a Polypropylene syringe which seems a bit easier.
  
  The honey takes the edge off for a while and then, as the sugar fades, the spice kicks in. They are a great way to clear the sinuses. The gelatin doesn't hold up really well if they get warm, so I keep them in the fridge. Between the cold and the honey, they keep for a good long time.

Hello Beautiful Bombshells!

I see 1987 Members...not quite 2k as of yet. That was a good year :) The year I graduated high school and made the decision to move from Indiana to Florida.

I woke up bright eyed and bushy tailed at 5 am after hitting the sack at 9 pm and not waking up a single time during the night. Yahoooooooo! Thank you so much to all who responded to my frustration with explaining why I'm not starving myself to my husband. I sent him a long email explaining what was happening with my body and articles to back things up (thanks u/BRC_haus) that I was sent, as well as more that I found. I think he gets it now. Who knew it just took me explaining things? I guess we're never too old to learn over and over again that communication is the key :)

I also OMAD'ed yesterday. Dinner was Crockpot Mississippi Pot Roast with Cauliflower Mash and Roasted Delicata Squash (roasted with butter, sugar free maple syrup, thyme, salt & pepper). It was not a pretty plate (or picture). but man was it damn tasty. I actually ate the fat on the beef and enjoyed it. Normally I spit it out and give it to my dog :D I also had a SlimFast Fat Bomb Snack of the Peanut Butter Cup, as well as a Pumpkin Pie Fat Bomb. I made the recipe (I got 24 fat bombs even though the recipe yields 12 because I used a smaller silicon mold) and froze them. Hubby hasn't really been eating them, so they'll last me for awhile :)

Today is hair day! I need a touch up on the purple so bad. It's faded to lavender and I can't wait until it's dark purple again. I hope ya'll have a wonderful Thursday and KCKO! XOXOXO

Okay, so a while ago I said I was going to make a gummy bear tutorial and I never did so I thought it was about time I at least made a write up for them. This recipe will get you right around 200 gummy bears.

Tools:

• Small non stick pot with a lid
  
• medium non stick pot
  
• 60ml Syringe - Here
  
• stiff silicone spatula - Here
  
• 2 small pyrex dishes - Here
  
• Candy theremometer - Here
  
• Fork to stir with
  
• Gummy bear molds (or any other you like) - Here I also just found these
  
• Measuring Cup
  
• Measuring Spoon
  
• Strainer - Here
  
• Medium/large bowl
  
• Partchment paper
  
• A few large tupperware containers
  
• Dram droppers for the flavorings - Here
  
  Ingredients:
  
  
• 1 Package of Jello (85 grams if you have a scale) in the flavor of gummies you want
  
• LorAnn oils concentrated flavorings - Here
  
• LorAnns oils mold Inhibitor - Here
  
• LorAnns oils Preserve-it Antioxidant - Here
  
• 5 Tbsp plain gelatin powder - low quality / less chewie here High quality / more chewie here
  
• 1 tsp of Soy lecthin powder - Here
  
• 1/2 cup of Real Fruit juice of the flavor you want to make, get creative here, needs to be cold. Cold water can also be used but the flavor is not as good.
  
• 1/4 cup of sugar
  
• Glycerin - Here
  
• 6 grams of Concentrates (AKA: BHO, Shatter, Wax, Oil, Hash oil, etc)
  
• 1 Tbsp Coconut oil
  
• Cornstartch
  
  Decarbing
  
  Pre-heat your oven to 250F - 260F, use the digital theremometer to keep an eye on the temp to make sure it stays around there and does not get above 260F. I like to place my concentrates into the small pyrex dish and decarb in that. Put the dish with your concentrates in the oven for 30 minutes. You can check it around the 30 minute mark and see if it is fully decarbed. Look for it to be pretty clear of all little "carbination" like bubbles. When those are mostly gone you are done decarbing. It will take around 30 minutes. Go a little longer if you want couch lock / sleepy time gummies.
  
  When it is done decarbing pull it out and set it to the side for a minute.
  
  Infusing the coconut oil
  
  Grab your medium sized pot and put a few inches of water in it. get it to a boil then turn the temp all the way down to a very low heat. When the water is ready place your dish with the freshly decarbed oil into the water bath and add the 1 Tbsp of coconut oil to the dish.
  
  Let the two mix for a few minutes until they are nicely combined. It shouldn't take long maybe 10 minutes max.
  
  Grease your molds
  
  At this point if you dont have silicone molds (I do and I still grease mine for precautions) grease your molds so you don't forget to do it before adding your gummies.
  
  Preping fruit juice (or water)
  
  In the second small pyrex dish pour your real fruit juice / water or whatever base liquid you are using for your gummies. I havent tried much besides fruit juice and water but you can experiment with other liquids, but don't do an experiment on a batch with THC in it just in case something doesn't work out.
  
  To the fruit juice / water add 1 tsp of soy lecthin and stir with the fork. Place the dish in the fridge for 5 minutes or so and stir again. Let it sit in the fridge stirring occasionaly until the soy lecthin is fully desolved.
  
  This liquid mixture NEEDS TO BE COLD for the blooming process to work so make sure to keep it cold.
  
  Mixing the dry ingredients
  
  In your small non-stick pot mix the following together: 85 grams of Jello, 5 Tbsp of Gelatin, 1/4 cup of sugar. Completely mix them all together and dont let any of them get wet yet. Stir and stir until they are completely mixed.
  
  Blooming
  
  Take your mixed dry ingredients and pour in your friut juice (water) soy lecthin mixture. Stir it and get everything evenly mixed and make sure there are no lumps. When everything is evenly mixed place the lid on the small pot and let it sit for 10 minutes.
  
  This is called "blooming" the gelatin and allows the gelatin to absorbe the water. The water needs to be cold because gelatin activates at about 120F and after that will start to set when it cools. We don't want it setting right now.
  
  

I had posted this recipe in a thread here a little while back and am pretty happy with them:

I’ve been making no bake bars that are really easy and pretty tasty:

1 oz herb, decarb for 25 minutes at 250 F
Move into double boiler with 2 cups clarified butter, you can also use coconut oil.

Simmer in the butter for 2 hrs, strain and press the bud to squeeze out all of the butter, discard the bud.

To the melted herb butter add:

400 grams honey

350 grams smooth peanut or almond butter

5-10 grams lecithin (optional)


Let that melt and mix together over a double boiler then add:

6 cups oat flour

5 Tbps raw cacao powder

1 Tbps salt

Pinch cayenne pepper (optional)

You may need to add a little more oat flour if it’s wet, up to an additional cup.

Mix together well and let sit 20 minutes before moving into molds (I use these)or a brownie pan. Refrigerate until solid and enjoy :)

They freeze well and can be eaten straight from the freezer due to the high fat content.

Honestly, the "recipes" aren't complicated. It's mostly cutting and punching. A few tools go a long way.

Spend $30 on those tools and these lunches should take 10 mins to assemble in the morning. One of my biggest challenges is keeping a variety of foods on hand.

Today I broke my dresser by attempting to use it as a step stool to get to the top shelves in my closet. Why was I using my dresser as a step stool? Because I couldn't afford a step stool :| Which means now I get to buy a new dresser, and until then the drawers are just stacked up in the back of my closet.

So, as much as I hate my most useful gift being a gift card, a gift card would really really help put a dent into the $60+ I'll need to spend on a dresser soon.

A real, actual item that I think is very interesting (and entertaining!) is The Princess Bride <3 And for a useful item, this silicone brownie mold solves the problem of who gets the edges and whose piece is bigger :-D

/u/TrashyTripod & /u/gotsmile, you guys are going to laugh at how easy this is.

There are recipes online. Do a little googling about what soap ingredients have different effects, like I did a rose oil (omg, the scent!) and rose clay soap, which is good for skin, or honey and oatmeal which is more exfoliation. Some are better for dry skin, oily skin, or just neutral.

I buy everything from Amazon:

• Molds: gems, bars, fun small shapes
  
  
• Melt and pour soap base: honey, goat's milk. I'm picky and I only buy the organic stuff. Buy it sooner rather than later, it will sell out by the holidays! Learned that the hard way, last year.
  
  
• Mix-ins: oatmeal, activated charcoal. You want everything to be food-grade.
  
  ------------
  
  How To
  
  The soap base breaks apart into 1 inch cubes. In a microwave safe measuring cup, microwave 2-4 cubes in 30 second increments until melted. Stir in any oils, perfumes, or colorants (although I avoid coloring soap, personally; I like the 'natural' stuff). Pour the appropriate amount into your mold. Working quickly, in the soap-filled mold, stir in any large add-ins, like charcoal or oatmeal. Wipe down the measuring cup, repeat as necessary.
  
  Leave the mold out at room temperature to set. Give it time (6-24 hours). Gently remove from the mold and wrap in cling wrap to avoid moisture beads from forming. Later, put the plastic-wrapped soaps in a little goody bag with a piece of colorful tissue paper. FYI, the tissue paper will stick to the soap if they touch.
  
  --------
  
  Tips:
  
  
• Learn from my mistake: when you're done, wash the measuring cup and molds by hand. If you put them in a dishwasher, it will become coated in soap. This kills the dishwasher.
  
  
• Buy 2 molds. Make a batch in the morning and again in the evening. If you use the bar mold, that gives you 12 bars per mold x 2 molds x 2 times in a day, or 48 bars for ~3 hours of work on a Saturday. You'll get faster as you get the hang of it.
  
  
• How much soap base you need depends on the size of your molds and how many soaps you're making. I found that 2 lbs of soap base was enough for about 16 bars using this mold. But I didn't really like the shape of the soap in that mold because it was too deep.
  
  
• If you're using heavy or large add-ins, it pays to let the soap solidify for a second before mixing them in, or it'll all sink to the bottom.
  
  
• It's fun to combine with other homemade cosmetics gifts, like DIY lip balm or something, but that requires a whole other set of materials, so increases your costs.

1 truclear syringe. I used GDP

1 unflavored gelatin packet

1/2 teaspoon corn starch

1/2 teaspoon lecithin granules (I had to get these at GNC myself)

1 jello packet, with sugar tho. 3 oz. We used blue.

Some measuring cups (1 large one)I got those molds off amazon these ones! It included the little syringe thingy.

and a good mixing utensil! Preferably silicon. A good saucepan also, I used a rather small one. Don't want anything sticking!

​

Recipe:

1/3 cup water + 2 tablespoons. Next time I'm going to try fruit juice. Put that into a pan.

Add the lecithin granules 1/2 teaspoon, stir well.

Add the unflavored gelatin. Stir that well.

Wait about 5 minutes for it to get really....gooey?

While doing this you need to get your distillate to be more runny. I chose to put mine inside a plastic bag, which I submerged in water. I pulled the syringe part off a bit so I could see how runny it was.

Move your saucepan to the heat on low. Stir it occasionally until everything is liquid (granules suck) but do not boil.

Once it's liquified, add a generous 1/2 teaspoon of cornstarch. Mix that well. IT will take a second until it's completely mixed in.

Add the jello packet and mix in.

Now you add and generously mix your distillate to the jello and keep the heat on it briefly while mixing to ensure it gets throughout.

Put them into the molds and refrigerate 30 minutes.

and finished!we used blue raspberry.

I personally, took the remaining distillate and submerged the whole syringe into my tea. Waste not, want not. Made about 130, around 6 mg of THC each.

I'd say probably this: http://www.amazon.com/Kotobuki-Plastic-Mold-Rabbit-Bear/dp/B002TZ04J6/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=1397DHHEDD03M&coliid=I5TWTTUX9MMJZ

I make lunch for our foster kids... and would like to say that these would be for them... but really, I love opening my lunch to fun bento meals!! :-p

Silicone ice cube trays or bite sized brownie moulds are great for smaller stuff like black beans. I have this one. The wells are the perfect size for a small baby portion, you can use a couple squares if baby eats more.

For larger things like sweet potato spears or baked pears spread them out on a cookie sheet, freeze then transfer to a freezer bag. If you put them directly in the freezer bag instead of doing the cookie sheet first they will all stick together :p

Ack! I went over. I always do that. Oy. Anyway, maybe spme good ideas there.

I'm sure she will love it, especially because you made it! Go YOU! My mini LOVES the poop emoji - and I found this at Joann's about two weeks ago. One 50% off coupon, and voilà - she's got a poop emoji baking mold in her Christmas stocking. LOL - I can only imagine the shenanigans that are going to come out of this!

I haven't tried gummies before. I'm actually waiting on a delivery from UPS today for gummy bear molds from Amazon. I got these from Amazon.

Planning something a little different than just using canna oil though...

My plan is to make shroom tea (I make a lot of mushroom edibles too), and use that for the 'water' part of the gummy recipe, and medicated coconut oil for the THC. The goal is to work out a nice balance of THC and psilocybin for nice euphoric "recreational" gummy bears.

I'll be trying them next week when I get a chance to sit down and make everything. If it works out, maybe I'll post the recipe here on /r/treedibles if it'd be welcome. The rules don't necessarily mention anything about cooking with other psychoactive drugs.

You honestly don't need to buy those overpriced and totally unnecessary copper molds. I'm a pastry chef and I make them all the time. I borrowed some copper molds once and even used the traditional beeswax method and I found there is hardly any difference between using copper molds and silicone. Get some silicone molds...they work great, they are easier to use and affordable. The only thing you need to remember is that they take longer to bake in a silicone mold. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0045U9Q6U/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?keywords=silicone%20canele&qid=1393987636&ref_=sr_1_3&sr=8-3&tag=delvkitc-20
EDIT: I'm pretty sure anyone who has invested in copper molds would let them go much below the price they originally paid for them anyway. I know I wouldn't.

Recipe:

•1fl oz infused coconut oil Calculator for dosing

•2fl oz water (or juice is what I use)

•like an 1/8th tsp of sunflower lecithin

•2x Knox gelatin envelopes (1.8g ea iirc)

•3oz (small box) Jello brand whatever flavor

•Tartaric acid (manufactured Citric acid is low key poison FYI)

•organic raw sugar

Directions:

Put infused oil and water in like a small candy pot and stir till they’re mixed up very well (try to keep as cool as possibly without the coconut oil hardening). Mix in the Knox gelatin thoroughly, then add the jello box and do the same. Next you just let it sit for 10-15mins for sugar to bloom or some shit, should be like thicc applesauce .

I like to go low and slow, I have a little copper pot that holds heat well so I want to gradually build up the heat till I get to my desired temps (I’ll us IR gun or candy thermometer next time to be more accurate).

On my stove I start at 2 on the dial and continuously stir with a little whisk for maybe 5-8 mins till it looks like it’s starting to melt down. Turn it up to 3-4 on the dial while still stirring continuously, another 8-10mins till it’s all melted down, it’ll get clear and get more syrupy if you let it drop off the whisks. Usually once I see a little vapor or if I stop stirring it bubbles at all I pull it from heat and keep stirring.

Switch the dial to LOW (want to keep pot pretty warm to keep goop from solidifying) and start filling the molds with a dropper that came with the molds. I usually have a helper because I have zero patience. One stirring, one filling molds. Makes the process a lot easier. i usually get 100-110 gummy bears. If you end up with more you didn’t cook it long or hot enough and they’ll likely sweat/weep.

Next I put them in the freezer for 30mins to an hour depending what all I have going on.

I have a cooling rack that I pop the gummy bears out on straight from the freezer, air dry (my ceiling air vent hits the counter just right to speed this along).

Toss the bears in a Tupperware with whatever coating suits your taste, Mine is usually around 1-1.5 tsp of tartaric acid and 1-2 cups of sugar mixed in (I’ll use this to coat a few hundred before I tweak it at all). Shake vigorously and make sure all get evenly coated. Toss bears in a sifter to clean up and back on the cooling rack for 15-30mins. Double coat if needed.

Should be find under 78-80°f ambient air, no sun. Store in fridge just to be safe til used.

Oooh, make her a mixtape! Buy songs that remind you of your relationship & purchase them on the Amazon Digital Music. Depending on what songs you choose--you could end up with enough $ left over to get a mix of things for her!

A cute bento box may also be nice choices. Especially if you whip her up a nice lunch to put in it! Take her on a picnic date! They also have molds for different types of food in the shape of cute animals.

Thanks! I love them so much. Here are the molds I got, which are almost the perfect size for one batch, I always have some left over to make a few more with another mold I have. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0744DG9JJ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

VG is Vegetable Glycerine. It helps incorporate the reduced tincture aka FECO aka Full Extract Cannabis Oil into the gummy juice. And yes I have an electric burner just for evaporating tincture and decarbing wax. I used to use a glass Pyrex for that until one exploded on me the other day so now I use a metal pan. Good luck! It takes a few tries to get it down but I've never completely ruined a batch (except for when my Pyrex exploded). https://imgur.com/a/NUYEH

Pretty much what is in the link. My normal process these days:

1. Start with this silicon mold
   
2. Fold the slices of cheese into quarters (half and half again)
   
3. Put two quarters of cheese in each cavity of the mold (total of 3 slices of cheese). I used to take care to spread them out within the mold. It's not necessary. They become molten within the two minutes and cover the cavity anyway. So now I just toss the two quarters in on top of each other. Very simple.
   
4. Put mold into microwave for 2 minutes. Some cheeses or thicker slices may require more time.
   
5. Pop out and let cool. They'll crisp up as they cool.
   
6. Repeat (2) thru (5) as often as desired.
   
   Instead of a half-slice per cavity, you can also measure it out to about 10 grams of shredded cheese per cavity.

Brownies are easy to make, easy to portion, have enough butter to properly carry the THC & the chocolate helps cover up some of the flavor. They freeze well & are easy to wrap up if you're making big batch.

...and you can bake them in these things to make the portioning really consistent

Right on, rainbow 🌈🏳️‍🌈 I love it!

I'm bisexual and married to my cis male partner, so many don't see or know my queer side. My previous marriage was to a man... and then a woman as she transitioned during our 10 year marriage. We are still good friends and I consider her family. It bothers me that "normal" people assume we divorced because of her SRS. While that did add some additional issues to deal with, the main problems were just plain old normal married stuff - poor communication, a lot of time spent apart, financial stress, etc.

In my 20's and 30's, I was conflicted - I felt like I had to prove my bisexuality, that I wasn't just going through a phase or being trendy to the rainbow 🌈🏳️‍🌈 community. At the same time, I was also very worried about coming out TOO loudly because of possible workplace repercussions (government employee), especially when I'm married to a man. "Why bother making a fuss if it doesn't matter?" said one co-worker. But as I've gotten older and found more like minded queer and ally friends, and as I've gained more self-esteem in general, I don't care much what others think. Last year, on Twitter, I came out on National Coming Out Day - loud and proud.
My motto? "What others think of me is none of my business."

EDIT: It's been brought to my attention by my 16 year old niece that I'm actually pansexual. I guess I've always thought for myself that bisexual covered men and women regardless of how they identify.

I got this for Christmas last year, and have used it tons of times! I follow the recipe inside, just using sugar free jello. I believe it was one flavored sugar free jello, five unflavored gelatin for regular gummies (I don't remember how much water), for regular gummies, and 1/2 a powdered drink mix packet - for sour gummies. So many combinations can be made.. and it's really worth it to have keto gummies. They also have a recipe for gummy vitamins included with it.

http://www.amazon.com/Droppers-Dram-Size-Bottles-Pack/dp/B006TL046O/ref=pd_bxgy_k_img_z

Search Amazon, eBay, wherever for "eye dropper bottle cap" and you'll find plenty... but it's probably just cheaper and easier to reuse any you have from TVC, etc :)

I personally use the recipe I found here:
https://stepawayfromthecarbs.com/keto-low-carb-gummy-bears/

It’s just a packet of sugar free jell-o, a packet of unflavored gelatin, and water.

I got one of these as a house warming gift:

So I use that to make them. I tend to add a little more water than the recipe and just fill the cup that comes with the gummy kit.

> They argue equality when they want paternity leave, and difference when they want to be paid more prize money for sports.

I call this BS. Who do you think gets paid more sponsor money? The male figure skater or the female? Who attracts more attention? There you go! Same goes with porn.

> The equality and difference argument is banal. Equality would be cruel to men if they were treated equal to women: men’s genitals would be sliced up, annual rape of men would increase from 9,000 to 69,000, male prostitution would soar, men’s penises would be sprawled across page 3, men would stroll down the catwalk with their penises hanging out, and the Labour Party would roll out pink vans to attract women voters and blue vans to entice male voters.

• Men's genitals are sliced up more often in the US, then female genitals. Female genitals are almost always sliced up due to the individual female's decision. Male genitals are almost always sliced up without the consent of the individual male. Without anesthesia mostly.
  
  
• Since there is no such sentence as "being raped", inmates are victims of rape too, since their sentence is confinement and not rape. They are simply less valued members of the society, so very few people care.
  
  
• Why would male prostitution soar, if it is easier for women to find a sex partner?
  
  
• Try to ask it in /r/AskMen how many men would feel offended if women complimented to their ass/face/chest/dick? I can assure you there would be an ad in a month about a lotion for swollen cocks.
  
  > Equality is harmful to women and most men, as they are required to replicate behaviours that are degrading and dehumanising. Once women buy into the masculine terms of society, our civilization will become crueler than ever expected.
  
  > Men hold the balance of power. Power is granted in the wrong ways, and used for the wrong ends. Change can come about by redefining and redistributing power, breaking down hierarchal structures, and reevaluating the criteria designed by men.

It is. I used an egg mold. Pretty easy. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B002TZ04J6/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1409053743&sr=8-2&pi=SX200_QL40

Ooh. I got it! Get a couple of these brain jello forms.

Make a few blancmanges or jello molds! I'm pretty sure that's how they do it on the show. Check out recipes for blancmange online - you may need to add extra gelatin to get it that extra firmness.

I just ordered this candy mold to make some frog chocolates for my kids halloween party. $4.30 (w/ amazon prime) seemed like a decent price.

Oohh, those are both great ideas! I'll probably try them both.

How about gummy bears?

This recipe goes over decarbing and making oil so you can skip right to the making gummies step.

The recipe uses 1/4c which is about 60ml so you might want to scale it back a little or add 10ml of normal coconut oil.

I’ve found that coconut oil makes great gummy bears and if you add some mold inhibitor they won’t need to be refrigerated.

I don't make a "loaf" of bread substitute that can then be sliced, because you cannot actually get keto breads to rise. Instead I use this recipe to make very durable bread "slices" that stand up really well in sandwiches, mainly because of the cheese it contains: https://buttoni.wordpress.com/2013/09/15/gluten-free-grain-free-hamburger-buns/

I make half a recipe and spread it between 2 of these: http://www.amazon.com/Freshware-SL-116RD-3-Cavity-Silicone-Custard/dp/B004GJ8QSY/ref=sr_1_7?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1427819171&sr=1-7&keywords=Freshware+silicone+molds
Half the recipe fills 6 rounds very thinly and produces a thin bread round that holds up very well, even when fillings are wet.

Lately I've been using this silicone mold to make one large piece which I then cut into quarters, each quarter is about the size of a slice of bread: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0032AM7QU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I really swear by this recipe. Using a neutral-tasting cheese keeps the bread from tasting either too "eggy" or too "cheesey.' One tip: the finer you grate your cheese the better the result. i use this thing: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HMDLAPW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Look at party and Halloween stores. I have one like this and I think it took at least four cups of gelatin to fill it. I don't know that there's anything on the market that's truly horse-sized, but a human-sized one is surprisingly heavy.

I'm not saying you need these but...

Hey, I just looked at some amazon listings, trying to find the silicone molds that Paula Wolfert mentions, and this one has good reviews. One of them says that this works better than most silicone molds because it’s infused with metal particles.

I make rso chocolates! They are delicious and rso is ready to eat.

Ingredients

1 pkg Ghirardeli Dark Chocolate Melting Wafers

https://www.target.com/p/ghirardelli-dark-chocolate-melting-wafers-10oz/-/A-14919573

1 g syringe RSO

Equipment:

Silicon molds
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XQZ12NH?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Double boiler or a saucepan with a heat resistant (Pyrex) bowl.

I use the saucepan method.

Fill saucepan with 1-2 inches of water. Place bowl into saucepan. Bring water to simmer/low boil over low heat. Don’t scorch the chocolate with too much heat Remember you are not cooking it, so just enough to melt the chocolate.


More details with pictures on the double boiler and how to use it:
https://www.leaf.tv/articles/how-to-melt-chocolate-without-a-double-boiler/


While I am letting the water warm up, I place a cup of water in the microwave for 2 minutes.

After my water starts warming up, I put the chocolate in the bowl of my improvised double boiler.

Pull the cup out of the microwave.

Place rso in hot cup of water. DO NOT OPEN Use the plastic piece to suspend syringe into cup. Or just lean it against the inside of the cup.

Use a spoon to stir chocolate as it melts. Once melted, add RSO. Stir until thoroughly combined.

I place my molds on a cutting board and put them next to my chocolate and use the spoon to fill them. I pick them up and drop them from an inch or two onto the board to smooth them out after they are full.



Transfer entire board to refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

Pop chocolates out of molds!

Get high as fuuuuuck!

I also used distillate to make white chocolate.

https://i.imgur.com/6TOqOHi.jpg

I made them myself. Melting chocolates are relatively inexpensive (you can find them at most any craft store) and I ordered this mold off of Amazon.

Though you could try and of these also:Here, Or Here, Or these "sexy frogs," which actually kind of creep me out, lol.

The one I ordered used a LOT of chocolate.

Yeah, the white really makes the dimensionality of it pop!

I haven't polished any of them at all, and they are in this mold. The bottom of the mold is where all the magic happens.Here's what the open part looks like, which is what I would consider to be the back of the coaster.

They are definitely hardened. I have had a couple come out completely set, but still bendy, though.

If you have a store that sells them you could also get these things. My coworker was all like "YOU NEED TO MAKE BUNNY SHAPED EGGS!!!"

http://www.amazon.com/Kotobuki-Plastic-Mold-Rabbit-Bear/dp/B002TZ04J6/ref=pd_bxgy_k_img_b WOWOW!!!

EDIT I bought these and plan to report back. This is badass.

Thanks! They're just caramels. It set up so well that I think I could layer it with chocolate in this mold.

You should get good microfiber cleaning towels and a crockpot. They come in handy SO much!

Or I get some Halo Top Ice Cream from Sprouts. I haven't gotten around to purchasing my own ice cream maker yet. :(

This stuff is something you add to increase the shelf life of food. I use it in brownies too, it keeps them from spoiling too fast.

I was planning to use that recipe, but use these gummy molds from amazon that are smaller than the ones used in the recipe so I figured I’ll be able to make ~200 gummies

Then you have an excuse to buy these! Egg Molds!
