sugar

I'm glad to see at least three pieces of real fruit on this sugar-bomb. Sprinkles, marshmallows, candy... I'm getting jittery just looking at it.

Amezaiku is the Japanese art of shaping sugar into edible works of art reminiscent of blown glass. Incredible! I think I have a new obsession!

Remember making rock candy as a kid? It was like magic! Making candy from nothing but sugar and water! Of course we did it on strings and never had any flavors or flavors. This is some fancy craft time right here. I think I need to get back to doing simple crafts like this, so fun!

Once upon a time, sugar came in cubes or not cubes, brown or white. Now there are wondrous selections of accoutrements for your tea or coffee. Enough to suit any sweet tooth! It really is a wonderful world.

I'm not sure I'd want to give a pack of kids handfuls of straight sugar as a snack but I could see these set out for coffee with the ladies.

Tired of the endless parade of latkes and sufganiyot? It would be nice to have something that isn't fried for a change, These festive marshmallows are seasonally appropriate and a sweet respite from a diet of miracle oils. Of course they're still solid sugar, no one said the holidays needed to be healthy!

I would gladly be a cookie in my next life if it meant I got to roll around in a bed of sugar.

Kitty is such a fashion maven, she made sure that the candy matches the ring. It would just be a tacky snack if it clashed.

I like a motif that combines snow with the color pink. It reminds me of a sunset on a snowy day when the vibrant sky reflects off the perfect whiteness. Throwing a couple penguins in there just ups the awesome factor.

There has to be an uncomfortable moment with these when you're expecting icy coldness and are met with creamy frosting. But you'll get over it.

Who knew rainbows were so fast? Must be all that sugar.

As distressing as it may be to have a sunken kitty in your drink, those toe beans sure are sweet!

Panna cotta is like super rich, fancy grown up pudding and it is ridiculously delicious and versatile. I could eat panna cotta with every meal and not complain. Though with that much cream I would no doubt come to regret it. And oh the rainbow of possibility!

These cupcakes are actually topped with powdered sugar, with stencils used to make the faces. As if these kitties didn't look sweet enough already.

You don't look especially intelligent sucking on the buttons on your cardigan but I try not to judge.

Melting a skull in your coffee is a super satisfying way to start the day. I feel so powerful!
