Yummy Apple Crumble (Ummm!)
Today Room 8 and I ate apple crumble and the thing I liked about it was the cinnamon because it’s sweet and it so delicious. I think it could be better by adding ice cream, malted chocolate and also cream.
It was made by Ingrid and Ella.
Check their blog to learn how to make one.

Sweet ... Maybe not?
Do you know how to make sugar look like glass?
Melting sugar
Today at technicraft we melted different types of sugar and tasted it, some of them were not so nice and some of them were, here is how.
What you will need:
- Tripod
- Gauze mat
- Meths burner
- Matches/Lighter
- Types of sugar
- Damp cloth
- Tin foil
- Toothpick
Method:
- Place your tripod on a flat surface
- Add your gauze mat onto the top of the tripod.
- Curve the sides of the tin foil and place over gauze mat
- Pour what type of your sugar you want into the middle of the tin foil
- Move the meths burner underneath the tripod
- Light up one of the matches and light up the meths burner
- Mix the sugar around with the side of the toothpick (When the consistency is much like liquid then it is done)
- Take it off of the tripod and place it down
- Let it turn back into a solid, and the consistency will then be like glass, but edible
