Welcome to science at home in this experiment we create sugar glass and explain the chemistry behind the different ingredients that are used to make the sugar glass and why the temperature of the solution is so important. Sugar glass is a fun experiment to do at home with kids and you can create all kinds of interesting sugar glass creations. We made a holiday sugar glass house for Christmas. At the end of this episode you will be able to explain what sugar glass is, why each ingredient is needed and be able to make sugar glass at home.
