About the dish

Sugar on snow is a cool American dessert originating from Vermont. It’s prepared with just two ingredients – maple syrup and lots of fresh and clean snow. In order to make the candy, a pan should be filled with fresh, clean snow. The maple syrup is boiled, and it is then drizzled over the snow. When the syrup cools and hardens, sugar on snow is ready to be consumed. This treat is especially beloved by children. It is recommended to serve sugar on snow with doughnuts (used for dunking and extra sweetness), black coffee, and pickles (eaten to balance the sweetness of sugar on snow and doughnuts, so one may start all over again).
