    I made this with my daughter as part of her homework supporting their Ancient Egyptians topic at school. We managed to source the ingredients online and converted the US cup measures to UK grams/milliliters. For the fruit juice we used orange juice. It turned out quite well visually and she took it in for her class to try.
