Sugar Sculpting

So, after a week of cookie hell I was excited to go to a sugar sculpting workshop on Saturday. This was my first time ever doing anything like this, so please be kind. We learned how to make a fish by blowing air into hot sugar, and how to make a ribbon shape for the tail. We also learned several other techniques, but I will spare you the boring details. I can tell you that the sugar was extremely hot, so hot that I burned blisters on my hand while I was wearing three layers of gloves. I also burnt the tip of my rubber glove off, and then the instructor burnt another tip of my glove off with a blow torch, and caught my cardboard on fire. It was all totally worth it though. I can't wait until I am able to do more of these kinds of sculptures, but I have to wait until I am further along in school. Anyway, I was just so darn proud that I had to show off my work. I hope you all enjoy. I will try to post more later.
