Italian sweet art

                        Identification
A group of pupils Lia, Valentina and Lorenzo are discussing what they should create with sweet ingredients.
Cristina, the educator is guiding them.
The common idea is to represent one of the most famous monuments of our town, for this reason they are looking for help in a brochure.



They all agree on the Statue by Herny Moore in S. Marco Square.
Purchase

The pupils are thinking about how to represent the chosen monument on a poster and they are deciding what they need to buy in order to make it.
They need:
· sugar cubes(as white as the marble statue),
· icing sugar, flour and water for the pastry that will represent the field,
· biscuits will be bought to make the houses,
· candies will be used to make the windows,
· red wheels and candy canes for the roofs,
· tempera paints, brushes, glue and a cutter.
The most important ingredient will be the capability not to eat the materials!!!
