From £3.95 £3.95
Pearl or nibbed sugar, excellent for topping buns, cakes and biscuits. Very popular in various parts of Europe: Scandinavia, Belgium and Italy in particular, pearl sugar is compressed to make nuggets between 2mm and 4mm in diameter. The density of the sugar stops it from melting during baking and so is very good as a topping to cakes such as panettone.
Ingredients: white sugar
Packed in an environment where sesame seeds, nuts and gluten are handled.
