Do you want to dazzle your guests when serving coffee or iced tea? These diy sugar cubes are sure to do just that!
I’ve been thinking about making sugar cubes for a while now and just love it when a project like this turns out so perfectly! It’s surprisingly easy to make these sugar cubes, so let’s get right to it…
Here’s What You’ll Need
granulated white and brown sugar
water that has been boiled and cooled
bowl for mixing
teaspoon
candy molds
Start with approximately 1 cup of sugar and slowly add water, no more than a teaspoon at a time, stirring to mix. Do this until sugar is a paste-like consistency. Make sure your water has cooled completely, otherwise the sugar will melt.
Fill candy molds with the sugar-water paste, pressing down gently with your fingers to pack it in.
Allow to sit over night to dry.
Carefully remove from molds.
Enjoy!
I particularly like the brown and white sugar cubes that are shaped like shells. They will be great to serve with iced tea by the pool this Summer.

Oooh – do the brown sugar ones taste like those maple candies?
They do a little bit. I definitely prefer the white/brown sugar mix.
what a great idea, I will be trying this for sure!!
Always looking for something unique – like plastic spiders in the ice cube tray (Halloween). Love this for entertaining especially the star – might boost someone’s morale to know they are stellar. TY .
