Recently we discovered Steen’s pure cane syrup and added it to our Spiked Eggnog. There is a recipe for popcorn balls on the label and we decided to try it with pretzels instead of popcorn. It was a huge hit and will make a great addition to our holiday goodie baskets this year.
I bought an extra bottle for pecan pie, I think it might be my new favorite ingredient. We found it near the jelly but it also might be near the syrups. Real Cane Syrup is also available from Amazon.
