Well, the holiday season is truly upon us! We are so excited about this month because we have so many great DIY projects to share with you, a fabulous party and tons of fabulous gift ideas! Today we wanted to share with you a simple DIY that you can make with just fruit and sugar! Sugared fruit looks so gorgeous and festive; it is just perfectly frosted and a really beautiful winter centerpiece. All you need is egg whites, sugar and winter fruit! Great fruits to use include; apples, pears, grapes, plums and oranges. (You can use Wilton's meringue powder and water in place of egg whites if you plan to eat the fruit).
Just take a pastry brush to add the egg whites to the fruit.
When you add the sugar to the fruit be sure to sprinkle it on with a spoon, do not roll it in the sugar or it will get very clumpy.
When you are finished sugaring all of your fruit just lay them on a parchment lined cookie tray to dry for a few hours. When the fruit is dry you can pick it up and gently shake the excess sugar off. Then just arrange it any way you would like, on a pedestal or a bowl to display!

So pretty! I love the look of sugared fruit.
Looks beautiful!
My mom has fake fruit with clear beads on them to make them look sugared. The real stuff looks so much better though...and tasty! Looks beautiful =)
