How To Make Fake Glass

[nigel]

Materials :

old saucepan
oven
baking thermometer
2 measures of water
1 measure of golden syrup
3 1/2 measures of sugar

Steps :

Mix the water, golden syrup and sugar together in the saucepan and bring it to a boil on the oven.
Leave it boiling until the mixture is thick, with almost all the water boiled off.
Pour it into whatever mould you're using and let it cool.

Notes :

Keep it out of moist areas and direct sun.
Sugar glass doesn't last long (warps or goes sticky) so make it close to the time when you plan to use it.
Though only sugar, the glass can have sharp edges/points when broken, so be careful when handling.

what are exactly the measures of the sugar syrup and water.

I believe it works the same way as pyrotechnic recipes do.

You decide what 1 measure is. if 1 measure is 1 cup then you need 3 1/2 cups of sugar. it would work better in Percent form than just measures, but to each his own I guess.
