tips & tricks: frosted rosemary

whether i like it or not, the holidays are just around the corner. our november catering and cake schedule is already looking full and december is starting to add up. so i'm starting to do little things in advance that i can keep on hand during the holiday season to make my life easier. 

first up are these beautiful frosted rosemary sticks. they are beautiful in a cocktail, they can be broken up and used for small hits of pretty green on a cake or you can use a few to style up a platter that is a little bland in color and needs some holiday cheer. plus they smell AMAZING.

after the sprig gets brushed with simple syrup, gently sprinkle it with the sugar.

i like to pour the sugar over a plate or bowl to catch any excess. once your rosemary sprig is frosted, set it aside on a platter or in a jar and finish the remaining sprigs.
