Wedding Cake
Edible Sugar Diamonds

Originally I wanted to order cake banding for my cake (pic 3) but I didnt know how expensive it was!! $75/yard!! yikes!

I think i'll do edible sugar diamonds (pic2) instead...it still has the bling effect...right??!!

A seller on ebay is selling 168 jewels for $49.95!! so edible sugar diamonds it is!! LoL


I'll still use the monogram as my topper :)

Don't pay 49.95 for something you can make for less than 10 for if you can cook you can make them your self.  

here is a website you can go to for the mold of you can pick them up at a local craft store in the candy making section.

http://www.amazon.com/Break-Apart-Jewel-Candy-Molds/dp/B0008D6R56

Recipe:
2 c. white sugar
3/4 c. white corn syrup
1/2 c. water
Various extractions
Food colors

Combine sugar, corn syrup and water in saucepan. Cook over medium heat (do not stir until candy reaches hard crack stage, 300 degrees). Remove from heat and add extracts and coloring quickly. Pour into prepared pan or pans and cover with powdered sugar. When candy is cool enough to handle, quickly cut into very small pieces with scissors. Store in covered containers.

Extracts: Amount used depends upon whether you use oils, concentrates or extracts. Oils make the best candy but are not available in all flavors. If oils are used, use less than 1 teaspoon per batch of candy.

Food colors and flavors I use:

Yellow - lemon

Red - cinnamon or anise

Blue (or clear) - peppermint

Orange - orange

Purple - clove

Light green - lime

Green - wintergreen

Yellow orange - rum

Blue green - spearmint

Brown - root bear

To Prepare Pans: Using jelly roll pans or similar pans, fill with sifted powdered sugar and level off the top. Then run finger around making small tunnels in which to pour syrup. After pouring syrup in pan, cover with powdered sugar until cool enough to handle and cut.

It is very simple to do and you can make as many as you like store them in an air tight container until you ready to use them.
