@BenHutchinson1 KClO3 oxidizes Sugar.in an exothermic reaction, though it only occurs at a high temperature. H2SO4 starts the reaction (only a small bit is needed) by oxidizing the sugar in a slower exothermic reaction. The heat from the H2SO4 allows the KCl03 to oxidize the sugar in the faster more violent reaction that you saw
