Praline sugar! Cranberry sugar! Oh my goodness this could change my entire Thanksgiving. A mild coffeecake with praline sugar, a pull-apart loaf with cranberry sugar and walnuts and raisins...I need to stop myself but it's too late already! I use rosemary sugar for one of the best cakes I've ever had, slightly sweet rolls, a teeny bit on meats; rose and/or lavender sugar is great in shortbreads and tea cookies and anything with a lot of butter; orange sugar really adds a zing to sauces and ham and cocktails; I use vanilla sugar in just about every recipe (it is a must for cinnamon rolls). Vanilla sugar is definitely the most flexible and can be substituted for regular sugar in just about every recipe. Vanilla sugar cookies, mmm... Oh my. My first thought was tea parties and your wonderful flavored sugar treats! Try to squeeze one in (tea with the girls?) during the holidays. Irene @ KAF
