白糖上面澆蜂蜜，蜂蜜上面蓋白糖

This is from William Shakespeare “As you Like it”, Act III, scene iii.

 

意思是

錦上添花. 

=> 糖本身就是甜的, 加上蜂蜜只是使它更甜而已

Audrey:  Would you not have me honest?
Touchstone: No, truly, unless thou wert hard- favoured; for honesty coupled to beauty is to have honey a sauce to sugar.

 

What Touchstone said was that unless you were ugly, honesty and beauty together in one woman is like sweetening sugar with honey.
