Oh Sugar, Sugar

This is my pulled sugar rose. The process for this thing is incredibly hard, my thumbs are raw and sore from the heat of the sugar. I am thrilled about this class and the skills I will learn. Sadly, my hands say no. We have to wear thin latex gloves and handling sugar up to 155 C is awful. The product outcome is gorgeous and beautiful, I do love my flower. Many classmates are more skilled than I am, but for my real first attempt I am proud of myself. The roses will keep getting better as said by my Chef because I have to (his words) but the next thing is blown sugar. For anyone wanting to try this please watch a class or get some great instructions.
