Pearl Sugar for Delicious Crunchiness

Pearl sugar has a crunchy texture that bursts under the tooth, releasing a sensation of sweet freshness. When added to pastries such as brioches, chouquettes, or waffles, pearl sugar not only provides a sweet touch but also a pleasant sensation of texture contrast and a burst of flavors.

How Are These Sugar Pearls Made?

Pearl sugar, also known as nib sugar or candied sugar, is made from sugar crystals that are coated with a thin layer of sugar syrup. The manufacturing process begins with dissolving sugar in hot water to form a concentrated syrup. This syrup is then cooled, and the sugar crystals are dipped into the syrup. Then, the coated crystals are dried to form individual grains. This process is repeated several times until the sugar grains reach the desired size.
