Edible crystals is an experimental project on materials and manufacturing process to give them shape.
The experiment was focused on sugar as the main ingredient of mixtures and binder of agglomerates. Working with solid, liquid and mealy substances, which possessed thickeners and bonding capacity, Gabriele Lucchitta obtained mixtures with different colour, transparency, consistence and agglomerates. To compare the characteristics of samples of material obtained, it has been necessary to ensure uniform shape and size. From time to time, using a silicone mould it has been possible to obtain samples of cylindrical shape always equal.
