[Sca-cooks] Sugar awww Honey Honey

[kattratt]

Ok sorry for the silly title but the sugars question intrigued me....
If the modern sugar that we have is actually close to the High Quality
Elizabethan sugar that was in use in period then I am curious... did
they do or is there evidence of "Spun sugar".  That would be the sugars
used to create the really nifty artsy type things we recently discussed
when the Pastry Chef Competition was going on for real and on the Food
Network.
I have already mentioned that I thought that meringue was indeed "SNOW"
and got a fair conformation of that here.
SO I am curious about Spun Sugar... (At least I think that is the term.)
Always searching for new fun projects...
