About DECORATIVE SANDING SUGAR
Hyde and EEK! Boutique Decorative Sanding Sugar (orange variant, Yellow 6) is a coarse decorating sugar from Target's Halloween seasonal brand, used for applying a sparkly texture finish to cookies, cakes, and cupcakes. The ingredient list is minimal: sugar, confectioner's glaze, Yellow 6, and carnauba wax. Confectioner's glaze is a food-grade shellac derived from lac insect secretions, used to coat sugar crystals for gloss and color adherence — this renders the product non-vegan by strict vegan standards. Carnauba wax provides additional polish and prevents clumping. Yellow 6 (sunset yellow) imparts the orange color appropriate for Halloween-themed baking. This sanding sugar contains no allergens, no artificial preservatives, and no synthetic dyes beyond Yellow 6. At 375 calories per 100 grams (essentially pure sugar at 100 grams of carbohydrates per 100 grams), with zero fat, protein, and fiber, this is used purely for aesthetic decoration. The 4-gram serving size reflects the small amounts applied per use. Sanding sugar is distinguished from regular granulated sugar by its larger crystal size, which resists melting in the oven and provides a sparkly appearance. Available at Target exclusively during the Halloween retail season as part of the Hyde and EEK! Boutique holiday baking assortment.
