Ingredients
- ¼ cup all natural cane sugar
- ¼ cup water
- 1 cup fresh cranberries washed and mooshy ones picked out
- ⅓ - ½ cup coarse decorating sugar swedish sugar or all natural cane sugar (or a couple tablespoons of each in separate bowls)
Instructions
- Combine sugar and water in a small saucepan and heat over medium heat until sugar dissolves and the mixture JUST starts to boil.
- Remove from heat immediately, stirring in 1 cup fresh cranberries.
- Allow cranberries to hang out in syrup for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, to coat evenly.
- Set out a sheet of waxed or parchment paper on the counter or in a sheet pan, then place a cooling rack on top to catch drips.
- Remove cranberries using a slotted spoon or drain in strainer and spread onto cooling rack, using a spoon to separate them as much as possible.
- Allow cranberries to dry for 5-10 minutes, then toss a couple at a time into a small bowl filled with sugar of choice; all natural cane sugar, white sugar, clear sparkling decorative sugar or swedish pearl sugar.
- Let sugared cranberries dry on clean rack at room temperature at least 1 hour, refrigerate or freeze until ready to use. (See notes)

Notes
- Use fresh, firm cranberries for this recipe
- Try and not over-handle the sticky dipped cranberries, I used a spoon to transfer them to the sugar. Using the tips of your fingers, roll the cranberries in the sugar, pressing the sugar into the cranberry.
- Top cakes, cupcakes, pastries with these sparkling gems
- Decorate apple, cranberry, or pumpkin pies
- Garnish holiday cocktails and drinks
- Along with sprigs of fresh rosemary, these are beautiful sprinkled around your turkey platter
- Also gorgeous and delicious by themselves in a pretty crystal glass or dish for nibbling
