Sugar Skull Cubes


Projects like this make me wish that I preferred sugar in my coffee (I'm a pretty staunch 'little bit of milk only' type of girl), because, really, how awesome would it feel to drop a skull into your brew first thing in the morning? Pretty awesome, I'd imagine.

Maybe I'll have to take up the sweet life, just to find out for myself. This project would be a great gift option for a holiday hostess--can you just imagine how excited someone would be to get a bag full of [homemade] sugar skulls?

By the way, happy birthday blog! AND happy 200th post, blog! I just had to throw those out there, it's exciting times around here.


Supplies
   Skull ice cube tray (I used this one)
   1/2 cup sugar
   2 Tablespoons water

Instructions
  1. Combine sugar and water in a small bowl. Mix to combine well. The sugar should be sightly sticky, if not, stir until water is fully incorporated. Do not add more water, or your skulls with never dry. 
  2. Use a spoon to scoop sugar into your ice cube try. Allow to dry uncovered for approximately 6 hours, or until fully dry.
