DUEBEL Sugar Heating Lamp: Essential Tool for Sugar Art Beginners, Bakers, and Confectioners - Perfect for Modeling Chocolate and Isomalt Heating - Affordable Option

I got this because I am a candy maker these days and needed it for making lollipops. I’ve had trouble in the past with candy getting too and before I could add little things like sprinkles inside the sugar mix. I live it Brit keeps it soft enough to manipulate while you are making the perfect lollipop It helps you have more time with the candy making process so you don’t have to rush so fast. If you like making hard candy but hate how quickly you need to move bed they harden then this will be your best friend.

So this started as being an excellent lamp. It heated my sugar, it did this for a while. Until it released the magic smoke from the overheated? switch to turn the lamp on and off. Then it did not do any of the things to which it was advertised to do. I don’t know exactly what this lamp was meant for but I would suggest durations under 10 minutes which makes it useless for sugar work.

I actually use this heat lamp as an alternative for a glue gun when I'm doing a big glue project like feather work. I just cut a few glue sticks into small pieces and put them in a Pyrex bowl and lower the lamp head over it. After about 10 minutes or so it's liquified and it stays that way as long as I need it to. I just dip the items I want to glue and put them in place. The mess is minimal and I can work faster and more efficiently. The bulb gets super hot, you have to be very careful and avoid touching it or you'll have 3rd degree burns within seconds.🙂
