Belle de Sucre, Paris takes sugar to a whole other level. How beautiful these bon bons would look presented on a pretty Victorian plate at high tea or in a handmade and lusciously decorated gift box to someone special! Too bad that these lovelies are not offered in the US yet :(. I did find online, a recipe by “Trish” if you are interested in customizing your own and up to the sweet tooth challenge…
Trish’s “Renaissance Sweets” Recipe
Expertise Level: So easy to make yourself!
Add 2 teaspoons of water to 1 cup of sugar
Mix until the consistency of wet sand
While moistened, pack sugar into plastic mold trays
Even off the sugar with a spatula
Take the sugar beauties out of the molds and lay onto parchment paper right away
Let harden overnight
Molds can be found at craft stores and kitchen supply stores.
Smaller molds are recommended for this project.
Suggestion: Flower molded sugars make great cupcake toppers.
You may brush sugars with culinary glitter dust or lightly brush them with touches of food coloring.
For supplies, I personally recommend e.g. kitchenkrafts.com only because I’ve bought from them and was pleased with their products. There are also so many others, so have fun searching :)
