Homemade Lavender Sugar Recipes
Once you have prepared the Lavendar Sugar, each of the recipes below need to be kept in an airtight container, stored in a dark place and left sealed for about 2 weeks. Mix well again and use as needed. The sugar is good to use for up to one year.
When using loose lavender (rather than herb bags), you can sift out the buds as you use the sugar.
