Caution: Working with hot sugar can be dangerous, so be sure to handle it with care and avoid touching it directly with your hands. Also, be mindful of any allergies or dietary restrictions when selecting your ingredients.

1

Make the Caramelized Sugar

In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat 2 cups of granulated sugar over medium heat. Stir the sugar constantly until it melts and turns into a golden-brown caramel. The molten sugar will be extremely hot, so resist the temptation to taste it!

2

Shape the Edible Glass

Using a silicone mat or parchment paper, carefully pour the caramelized sugar onto it, creating desired shapes such as swirls, spirals, or even little bowls. Use a spoon to spread and shape the sugar while it's still warm and pliable. Allow the sugar to cool completely and harden into a delicate and transparent edible glass.

Serve and Enjoy

Once the edible glass has hardened, carefully peel it off the silicone mat or parchment paper. You can use it as a garnish for desserts like ice cream, mousses, or fruit salads. It adds a touch of elegance and whimsy to any sweet treat!
