Steps to Make Sugar Crystel:

  1. Tie a string around a Popsicle stick and cut cotton or wool string to 3/4 length of the jar you will use.

  2. Heat a small amount of water to boiling and stir in as much sugar as possible. It will take more sugar than you think! Usually the ratio is 3 cups of sugar for every cup of water, but it could vary.

  3. When no more sugar will dissolve in the water, let the sugar solution cool a little bit and pour it into a clean glass jar. If there is some sugar on the bottom that won't dissolve, try not to pour the undissolved sugar into the jar.

  4. Hang the string in the jar of solution by placing the Popsicle stick over the top of the glass. Again, the string should be cut so there is some room between the string and the bottom of the jar.

  5. Put the jar in a safe place for a few days. You will start to see the sugar crystals form on the hanging string. They will continue to grow for a little over a week. You can remove it from the jar, once it has reached a good size.
