I told her I love lighter colored flowers. She nodded and went to her storage room. A few minutes later, she came back with 3 pretty pink roses and small white flowers in her hand.Comlete Exclusivehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04153404242178478294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2986614298082910318.post-2738082567582280372016-07-15T16:06:01.354-04:002016-07-15T16:06:01.354-04:00Cooked this recipe and loved the outcome.

Who help people, bring joy to their life or help the world in some way. Those are the people who have my utmost respect and admiration. Frankly, I think we are all capable of it too.Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16945911444997924849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2986614298082910318.post-87163556469001284142016-04-16T23:19:30.974-04:002016-04-16T23:19:30.974-04:00Thank you Valerie!

I'm not sure about the violets, I just know the little wild purple and white ones but I've never found they have much flavor... do you know the book "Cooking With Flowers"? It's really wonderful :-) xoxKitchen Vignetteshttp://kitchenvignettes.blogspot.ca/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2986614298082910318.post-5386271722996596892016-04-15T16:18:19.701-04:002016-04-15T16:18:19.701-04:00What a beautiful song to listen to while watching ...What a beautiful song to listen to while watching your magic AUBE! Such a work of art, yet again. I was wondering how you got the lilacs so early this year! I mean, this is the earliest Spring since the late 80's in Edmonton, but I was aghast until I read...<br />Anyway, I have candied lilacs, and enjoyed working with them. Made a jelly which was a lot like a lilac honey in flavour and texture... and ice cream - and these tarts look phenomenal.<br />Do you know of any violets that taste like the French violette? I candy or sugar the Black Bowles as it is so gorgeous, but there is no flavour and I am nuts about that French violette flavour.... <br />Thanks for the edification.<br />Hugs,<br />Valerie<br />Oh - Have heard Jane speak. She moves me, deeply, too. What an incredible opportunity and I cannot wait to hear about the GMO project!!!Valerie at A Canadian Foodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06801652191160901186noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2986614298082910318.post-10049147970506484552016-04-15T15:43:42.124-04:002016-04-15T15:43:42.124-04:00Hi Jen, if you don't have lilacs near you, you...Hi Jen, if you don't have lilacs near you, you can certainly use violets, this candying recipe works for most edible flowers. I've never eaten cherry blossoms but they are edible, maybe worth a try!Kitchen Vignetteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11189372660575801386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2986614298082910318.post-60774267623355109532016-04-15T09:41:02.554-04:002016-04-15T09:41:02.554-04:00I would love to make these - I'm enchanted wit...I would love to make these - I'm enchanted with any kind of flower-infused dessert, much less with candied flowers - but I'm having a terrible time finding edible lilac blossoms, even from online shops! Is there a possible substitute, such as cherry blossoms or violets? <br /><br />Thank you so much! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
