Purpose
In this project I wanted to see what the fastest way to harden rock candy is. I will test if rock candy hardens faster with cold,or room temperature air.
Research
An article called “the sweet science of candy making” states “if you want to make rock candy,you need to let the syrup cool down over many days until big sugar crystals form” this makes me think that it will harden faster if it is heated or cooled.
An article at yahoo answers.com states that sugar can't freeze so freezing the syrup will have little to no effect.
Hypothesis
My hypothesis is that it will harden faster by itself since sugar doesn't freeze according to yahoo answers.com
Materials
2popsicle sticks
4 clothes pins
