What’s better than actual rose petals to decorate your desserts? Edible Fondant Rose Petals! Here’s a complete video tutorial to learn how to make fondant rose petals.
They’re perfect to decorate cakes and cupcakes ( vanilla cupcakes are a great canvas), cookies and bar recipes , and to be used as a garnish for drinks (like this rose cocktail and white chocolate cocktail ) and other desserts too!
A few months ago, I made this amazing White Chocolate Cocktail inspired by my Sri Lankan Falooda drink , but never got around to publishing it on the blog until recently.
It’s a delightfully delicious, sweet, creamy, floral white chocolate cocktail flavored with a rose syrup made from scratch and it also has a very romantic feel to it because of that gorgeous red, pink colors.
I decided to take that romantic vibe a step further, and made these beautiful fondant rose petals to garnish that cocktail. Together, these make the perfect combo of valentine’s day recipes .
