Strawberry Sugar

After a long winter we dream of late spring strawberries foraged from local farms eating until we burst with red juices staining our fingers. To tide us over, we use Strawberry Sugar blend so we can have a little bit of springtime year around. Strawberry Sugar is hand-crafted with organic cane sugar and rich, bright-tasting strawberries. Delicious and versatile, there are many wonderful ways to use strawberry sugar. Here are some suggestions to get you started:

Drinks

Stir in black or Earl Grey tea, hot or iced.
Lemonade or a lemonade and tea mix.
Use as a cocktail rimmer.
Baking and Desserts

Use in stewed rhubarb.
Try in fruit crisp topping or cobbler.
Lemon, caramel, or rhubarb desserts.
Sprinkle on top of fruit muffins before baking.
Very nice on top of a fruit tart or in a fruit pie.
Sprinkle on butter/sugar cookies, scones, or coffee cake before baking.
Use in whipped cream for desserts.
