Sweetening your tea or coffee with sugar cubes is so old fashioned. Add a modern twist to your hot beverage with sugar cinder blocks, the real way to construct flavor in a cup.

The sugar cinder blocks are small and used in just the same way sugar cubes are. Just drop, swirl and sip. This playful sugar food art was conceived by Brooklyn designer John Truex. Watch the video to see how sugar cinder blocks magically dissolve in warm water.

If you've got a sweet tooth, perhaps you'd enjoy these magnificent murals by Canadian artist Shelley Miller made of nothing but sugar.
