Famously Sweet Giveaway!

It always surprises me when I come up with an idea - and then just need to "ask" and it happens!  That's what happened when I contact the very sweet Acts of Sweetness Team from Redpath Sugar.  I see lots of blogs and Facebook pages giving away some really awesome prizes - (all the prizes I have given away have been bought by me.)  I thought to myself - "I wish I could offer my fans something really sweet too!"  So I contacted Redpath Sugars, I have followed them since finding out about them with Canada's Baking and Sweet Show that was held in Toronto last year.  Then in the autumn I noticed at our local Wal-mart carried a few of their products (even more now).  Out here in the west coast we haven't seen their products and so we are limited to a couple of companies.  I was very excited to see and try the sugars.  The first one we tried was the Turbinado Sugar -

This is made from 100% golden turbinado sugar which is boiled directly from natural concentrated cane juices. This unique process gives Turbinado Sugar its distinctive large crystal size and mild molasses flavour. Use it to give your coffee and tea a unique taste. You can sprinkle it on baked products to give them that extra crunch and flavour. We really like using this product, it has great flavour and is very versatile. The Golden Yellow sugar is so fine and light it is just a delight to bake with - the cookies come out so nice and I have never had any problem with clumps or lumps. Next I tried the Icing Sugar - wow so nice to make smooth glazes!!  I am very happy to switch my sugar brand to Redpath Sugars - especially since it is made right here in Canada!  I hope you get a chance to find it at your local store and try it!  Check out their Facebook page too.
