How to Make a Sugar Snowflake

I was really at a loss as to what to do for my holiday card this year. So, since I didn’t have any brilliant people-oriented staged ideas, I decided to create a little delicious Christmas joy by building a snowflake out of cocoa and sugar.

After assembling the proper ingredients, I made a few drawings of how my snowflakes might be engineered in my sketchbook.

After that, I laid a bed of cocoa out on the table and imprinted my design as troughs running throughout the powdered delight.

After that, I painstakingly sprinkled the sugar into each troughs. It was nervewracking! This stage I had to repeat a few times in order to get completely right.

Voila! A delicious snowflake.
