One of my favorite series of films and books is Harry Potter. I have been pretty vocal about this. It became a goal of mine after having my friend ask me to make some sorting hat cupcakes to dive into the world of Harry Potter recipes. I figured I would start at the beginning with the easiest one. Book one, titled (in differing countries) either: "The Philosopher's Stone"(this is what I grew up with) or "The Sorcerer's Stone" (in America) is a perfect place to begin. So, my Harry Potter recipes begin with the philosopher's stone.
What will you need to make your Philosopher's Stone?
It is so simple, and that is why it is so great!
- Food Coloring
- Rock Candy
- Gold glitter
Tools:
Paint brush
How do you make your Harry Potter Recipe?
Here is where it gets even easier:
- Take your paint brush, dip it into the food coloring of your choice and begin to cover the rock candy.
- Spray the gold dust onto a plate. Dip your paint brush into it and begin to then cover the stone again so it has a bit of shine to it.
- Let it dry!
Why should you make these?
So, here are my thoughts. This is a super fun activity for kids be it for any random day or for a party. Harry Potter themed parties are basically my dream whenever Josh and I have children. It can be a fun candy to give out at Halloween, or, it could be a fun stocking stuffer during the holidays. I mean, why wouldn't you make this? It is so simple that you could basically do it in your sleep. If you need more information on the Philosopher's Stone remember to check in the restricted section.
