candied flowers
Crystallized edible petals
Candied flowers are edible blossoms preserved by coating with sugar, used as decorations on cakes, pastries, and desserts.
The process involves brushing petals with egg white, dusting with fine sugar, and letting them dry until crystallized.
Violets and rose petals are traditional choices: The wedding cake was topped with candied violets.
