Sugar art, the art of producing artistic centerpieces entirely composed of
sugar
and sugar derivatives, is an art that is rapidly garnering support.


Sugar showpieces can be composed of several different types of sugar
elements. All begin with cooking sugar, and possibly an acidic agent
and/or non-
sucrose sugar product to avoid unwanted crystallization, to the
hard crack stage, around
300 °F (149 °C).
When all components are completed, they are welded together using a gas torch. The sugar is melted, and then joined together.
