Let’s represent the plague of darkness by making simple and sweet pudding bowls.
In this week's Torah portion, Hashem performs the last three plagues upon the Egyptians. During the plague of darkness, the Egyptians were not only prevented from seeing because of the darkness, but they were also frozen in their places as well. During this time, the Jews were able to locate the jewelry and precious items that the Egyptians had hidden. Soon after, as the Jews were leaving Egypt, they asked that the Egyptians give them the precious items as payment for the hard work they had done.
