- 1 Tbsp Cornflour or Cornstarch
- 2 Tbsp Water
- 1-4 tsp Red Food Colouring

- Bake cupcakes and frost when cool. Set to the side.
- In a saucepan measure out the sugar and pour in the water. Place the saucepan over medium-high heat.
- Stir the water and sugar until it begins to boil.
- Boil for 3-5 minutes until the sugar starts to change colour or until it reaches 300F | 160C.
- Pour the melted sugar out onto a baking sheet. Leave to cool for 10 minutes before transferring to the fridge for a few hours to harden.
- In a bowl measure out the syrup and cornstarch. Mix together until combined.

- Place a few shards of the sugar glass into the cupcake and spoon over the fake blood.
