Butter (for greasing)
1 1/2 cups of granulated sugar (270g)
1/2 cup of water (120ml)
20 Italian or red grapes (220g)
4 large scoops of vanilla ice cream (300g)
Grease a smooth surface with butter
In a medium saucepan, melt the sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until it reaches a caramel state
Add the water gradually, allowing it to drizzle off the edge of the pan, while stirring
Continue cooking and stirring until the sugar dissolves completely
Stop stirring and let the syrup thicken to a firm ball (with the wooden spoon, remove some of the syrup from the pan and let it cool in a small bowl with cold water; use your fingers to shape the syrup into a firm ball)
Remove from heat
Dip each grape individually into the syrup using a fork
Place them on the greased surface and allow them to dry
Spread any remaining syrup over the surface in thin lines, forming designs
Allow it to dry completely, then carefully remove with your fingers or an offset spatula
Finally, serve by distributing the scoops of vanilla ice cream and grapes between four plates, decorating with caramel designs.
