Sugar

I'd heard of making colored sugar with food coloring before, but had never actually tried it.  We needed some colored sugar for our Angry Bird cake.  The suggestion I found online was to shake the sugar and food coloring together in a small jar.

I took a small amount of sugar (maybe 1/4 cup) and two drops of food coloring, and gave it a good shake.  I was skeptical that the food coloring would incorporate evenly.

It was an amazing transformation.  I wasn't sure what to expect, but was fully satisfied with the results.  My family was especially impressed with my new-found sugar transformation powers.  I just thought I'd share.
