- Heart shaped ice cube tray (Silicon**)
- Spoon
- Small Bowl
This is how you do it:
- Mix the sugar with a small amount of water, just enough so it is sticky but not too much so it will melt the sugar (for 200 g sugar ca. 1 tsp water)
- Mix thoroughly
- Take part of the sugar and add a few drops of the food color, keep steering until you are happy with the color
- Remember -> The color will be lighter once the sugar is dry
- Take the Sugar "sauce" and pour it into the Ice cube tray
- Push everything down really well
- Let it dry over night
