Blueberry Sugar: fresh blueberries and pure cane sugar mixed to make a colorful topper for ice cream, salads, and light colored desserts as well as a striking rim on your cocktail glass.   1/2 cup jar - 3 oz

Lavender : Lavender has a sweet, floral flavor, with lemon and citrus notes. It is used to flavor baked goods and desserts (it pairs especially well with chocolate), as well as to make “lavender sugar.”  Lavender lends an elegant flavor to most dishes, and pairs well with sheep’s and goat’s milk cheeses. 1/2 cup jar - 2.8 oz

Orange Peel : Orange peel is derived from the outer skin of the sweet orange and can be strongly flavored.  It is commonly used in teas, mulling spices, marinades, and both sweet and savory dishes.  Try adding to rice while it is cooking for a delicious change. 1/2 cup jar
