Tips:

Choose the right sand: Use clean, fine sand that is free of debris and sharp objects. Avoid using sand from the beach, as it may contain salt and other contaminants.
Prepare the sand: Before using the sand, heat it in a pan or oven to kill any bacteria. You can also add a few drops of essential oil to the sand to give it a nice scent.
Use a sturdy container: The container you use to make your sand cups should be sturdy enough to withstand the heat of the oven. Glass or metal containers work well.
Fill the container with sand: Fill the container with sand, leaving about 1 inch of space at the top. Pack the sand down firmly so that it is level.
Add your ingredients: Add your desired ingredients to the sand, such as fruits, vegetables, or meats. Be creative and experiment with different flavors and textures.
Cover the container: Cover the container tightly with foil or a lid. This will help to keep the heat in and prevent the sand from drying out.
Bake the sand cups: Bake the sand cups in a preheated oven according to the recipe instructions. The baking time will vary depending on the ingredients you are using.
Let the sand cups cool: Once the sand cups are baked, let them cool completely before serving. This will help to prevent the sand from burning your mouth.
