In the fourth and final episode of Pleasant Vices Tasha is tackling the history of sugar in Europe using objects and prints from the British Museum collection to explore this foodstuff's tumultuous past.

To find out more about sugar you can read Tasha’s article on the British Museum blog, or go to her website AVM Curiosities http://www.avmcuriosities.com to see what else she's been up to.

Pleasant Vices is a four-part series on aphrodisiacs, beer, sugar and chocolate. Each two-part episode is hosted by Tasha Marks, with an accompanying recipe film. To accompany this episode Tasha is making a sugar sculpture inspired by the flamboyant sculptures made for the Earl of Castlemaine featured in this video.
