Pâtissier — Artistic Sugar Work
Cooking sugar too hot (above 160°C), which reduces elasticity and causes cracking during inflation; blowing too fast or unevenly, creating thin spots that rupture; failing to rotate the piece during inflation, resulting in gravity-distorted shapes; working without a heat lamp and losing plasticity before the form is complete; attempting blown sugar in a humid environment where pieces absorb moisture and collapse within hours
