Rose petals

Crystallized rose petals are real rose petals crystallized by hand in sugar. It's one of the most labour-intensive products in our range: each petal is treated individually and then has to dry slowly until a thin, brittle layer of sugar forms on it. The result isn't a sweet in the classic sense but a decorative delicacy, with a delicate floral taste that perfumes more than it sweetens. They're used to finish cakes, desserts and cocktails, or served with coffee when something special is called for.
