McCormick Chocolate Hazelnut Finishing Sugar, 3.61 oz Bottle

I received the McCormick's Chocolate Hazelnut Finishing Sugar to try, and I am surprised at how much I've been using it, especially because I don't make "from scratch" desserts all that often. I underestimated how much impact something so small could have on a dessert, and it turns out you can add it to anything - not just homemade treats! In fact, this finishing sugar is an easy way to modify a store-bought dessert to customize it and make it a bit more special. The flavor is perfection. It is chocolate and nutty but not overpowering and won't add noticeable sweetness to your dessert, despite being sugar. It's super easy to use on anything - just sprinkle it on! I have used it on brownies, cookies, and ice cream. I will say that depending on the "firmness" of your dessert, the sugar may not stick well to it, so keep that in mind, especially for after-market treats. I will be buying additional flavors of finishing sugar to have some variety on-hand!

I didn't expect a finishing sugar to steal the spotlight from a chocolate tres leches cake—but McCormick's chocolate hazelnut finishing sugar absolutely did. I sprinkled it over the chocolate tres leches cake, and it gave it the perfect touch. Overall, it turned a classic tres leches into something that felt just a bit more modern and memorable. Definitely not just a garnish it's a finishing touch that actually finishes the dish.It tastes like Nutella!
