From £3.95 £3.95
Large pearl sugar (also known as nibbed or hail), suitable for use in Belgian (or Liege) waffle batter, with the pearl size between 6.0-9.5mm. The density of the sugar stops it from melting during baking and so is very good both in batters and as toppings.
Q: What is the difference between Pearl Sugar and Belgian Waffle Sugar?
A: Pearl sugar is used for cake toppings - a crunchy sprinkling for example on panettone. Belgian waffle sugar is used for making, well, Belgian waffles, specifically "Liege" waffles. It goes into the batter and gives a caramel nugget in the waffle.
