Description I dunno, I try and make my titles exciting.

And up close shot of that sugar nest. People were amazed by it and I was all "I just took hot sugar and poured it in cold water, guys, it's not rocket science".

WELP. That's the last picture for today. Check out my tumblr for more desserts!

This looks so cool. And it looks like it defies gravity......also, that strawberry is sliced beautifully.

Thank you <3

I just took some very hot melted sugar and drizzled it into a bowl of cold water. It sets up instantly and gives these crazy patterns X3 It's one of my favorite techniques.

I actually took a spoonful of melted sugar and drizzled it into cold water. there was no pulling involved for this decoration.

Pulling sugar is a little more tricky, because you have to work with extremely hot sugar before it cools too much to work with.

Nice. I used to do something similar to the sugar nest, only with glass pipette tubes over a flame.
Mom preferred bringing me to the lab over leaving me with a babysitter.

At least you didn't gain the ten pounds caused by eating copious amounts of cheesecake XD
