Add sugar there too.

Almost immediately add citric acid and mix everything.

Boil the syrup for two minutes.

When a light caramel color appears, remove the saucepan from the stove and cool it by placing it in a bowl of cold water.

When the syrup thickens a little, apply it to a silicone mat or parchment paper using a spatula in the shape of the chosen figure.

You can also just make smears of caramel.

When the figures have cooled, carefully separate them from the silicone mat or parchment.

Step 10

We insert the resulting figures into a cake or any other dessert
