Kitchen Crystals: Rock Candy

Crystals are usually shiny minerals like quartz and amethyst, but table salt, white sugar, and even the ice that forms on the sides of the freezer are also crystals. In this experiment, use granulated sugar to grow crystals that you can eat!

Kitchen Crystals: Rock Candy was part of our Week 5 Theme: Kitchen Chemistry. What other projects from this theme did you participate in?
