The multiple crystals on the right were grown from a sugar cube, while the one on the left was grown from a single seed taken from the one on the right. Red dye was added to the sugar solution before growing the large crystal, but was insoluble with the sugar in its solid state, and all but small traces of the dye was forced to precipitate out ...
Rock candy or sugar candy, [1] also called rock sugar, or crystal sugar, is a type of confection composed of relatively large sugar crystals. In some parts of the world, local variations are called Misri , nabat [ 2 ] or navat .
Crystallized sugar. Crystals on the right were grown from a sugar cube, while the left from a single seed crystal taken from the right. Red dye was added to the solution when growing the larger crystal, but, insoluble with the solid sugar, all but small traces were forced to precipitate out as it grew.
Brown sugar starts off much the same as white sugar (i.e., it comes from the cane) but instead of being completely refined, some molasses is retained and mixed in with the white sugar crystals ...

Crystal growth is a major stage of a crystallization process, and consists of the addition of new atoms, ions, or polymer strings into the characteristic arrangement of the crystalline lattice. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The growth typically follows an initial stage of either homogeneous or heterogeneous (surface catalyzed) nucleation , unless a "seed ...
A seed crystal is a small piece of single crystal or polycrystal material from which a large crystal of typically the same material is grown in a laboratory. Used to replicate material, the use of seed crystal to promote growth avoids the otherwise slow randomness of natural crystal growth, and allows manufacture on a scale suitable for industry.
Brown sugar candy resulting from caramelisation. Sugar candy is often used to sweeten tea. Northern Germany, specifically East Frisia, has an established tea culture, where a large crystal of sugar candy (Kandiszucker or in the regional dialect Kluntje) is placed at the bottom of the cup and the hot tea added, which cracks and dissolves the crystal.
