This thread on making rock candy syrup might give you some ideas. You can boil the sugar, but you don't want to burn it, which requires lots of stirring. The more sugar you force into the solution, the higher its boiling point. RCS is not sweeter than simple syrup, but there is a ton more sugar in it. If you force enough sugar into the RCS, after it has cooled, rock candy crystals will begin to precipitate gradually on their own, or faster if you give them some help. |
