I agree with you, dd59714. Cibo Matto is my favorite band and the often use food as a metphor for love. I believe this song is about a relationship on the rocks. When a relationship begins, everything seems to go exceedingly well... tiny quarrells dissolve like sugar in water. In this song, it takes much more work to "melt that sugar", in fact, the water must exceed a boilig temperature. The love that acted as a catalyst in the beginning is lost. It's as difficult for their relationship to continue as it is to dissolve sugar cubes in cold water without a spoon, but they still belong together.... (that last sentance was awkward but you get the idea)
Really interesting interpretation, I like it... I wonder if this song has anything to do with the song Sugar Water? Like maybe Sugar Water is about a dreamy, loving relationship, whereas this later look at the same relationship shows the cracks starting to appear.
