Description

Sanding sugar is clear and sparkly, unlike the opaque pearl sugar, and its extra-large crystals also will not melt in the oven. Sanding sugar is a large crystal sugar used as an edible decoration that will not dissolve when subjected to heat. Also called pearl sugar or decorating sugar, sanding sugar adds “sparkle” to cookies, baked goods and candies. The sparkling affect is achieved because the sugar crystal grains are large and reflect light.
