Luskan Sugar Crosses

Sugar Crosses (Xiassa iyeha), known internationally as Luskan Sugar Crosses, were a delicacy from the Luskan Peninsula region. They were small heads of sweet green cabbage (usually harvested early to be a little smaller than an apple, but some smaller or larger ones were sold too). Cabbages and similar veggies were known as 'crosses' in Euluska due to the shape of the leaves they bore (four in a cross-shape).
These cabbage heads were then rolled in a sugar and cinnamon mixture and boiled, causing them to become sweeter, caramelised and crunchy, with a similar texture and taste a toffee apple or toffee popcorn but quite refreshing. They were sometimes served with handfuls of berries or sprinkled with jam sugar.
