well, that's what they look like up close - caverns of pointy sugar surfaces.

the straight-ish line across in the above image is about 1/8 inch long.

a little less of a close-up. these tiny objects moved just a bit while being etched, hence the wiggly lines.





ok, here's one complete item. recognize it? it's edible. you probably had your last one at a wedding. they're often given away as favors although if you ever get an etched one, Let Me Know!!
