During my first foray into candy making I found this series to be invaluable. Seeing the techniques demonstrated - and how a pro handles the materials - was a major help for a beginner like me.
These are excellent videos to learn some of the basics of chocolate and candy making. However, nothing can substitute for experience and you'll need some practice to make your candies as well as those shown in the video. Flawless performances by the chefs.
