You will need:
- Edible rose petals* from Maddocks Farm
-
Egg whites
-
Fine sugar (not icing sugar)
Get to work!
Step 1. Paint egg white on the rose petals with a brush. This can be either fresh egg whites or egg white powder.
Step 2. Lay the rose petal in a bowl with sugar, and scatter sugar over the top. Any excess sugar will fall off of its own accord.
Step 3. Heat the oven to its lowest setting, e.g. 35 degrees Celsius, and leave the petals to dry in the oven. Assume it will take an hour, but check the delicate petals regularly.
Step 4. Serve the petals on your home-made cake or cupcakes, or combine with sweet fruits such as cherries and figs as shown in the above picture. Enjoy!
* One more thing
Edible flowers are produced in a special way so that they are suitable for human consumption. The (cut) flowers and plants that you buy in the shops are not suitable for human consumption.
