Scented Sugars

Scented sugars add a subtle perfume and flavor to coffee,fruit desserts, and baked goods. This would make an excellent hostess gift.

Layer granulated sugar with aromatic edibles like scented geranium leaves, rose petals, orange and lemon peel(first set out for a day to dry) or vanilla beans. Mix small batches, and let them sit for a few days in tightly sealed jars while the scents infuse the sugar.

One jar or a trio serves makes an unusual present for whomever you think could use a little sweetness.
