The process of creating rock crystals is a patient, undisturbed one. First, the maker must boil sugar water before suspending a sugar-coated string over the mixture. Over time, the formation of crystalswill occur on the string, creating a large structure. Then, the crystals may be broken apart to create the versatile rock crystal sugar we all enjoy.

In Middle Eastern homes, many parents give their children a piece of this rock candy to ease a sore throat. Young children don’t like most cough drops so a piece of rock sugar candy eases the pain when swallowing and it reduces coughing.
