Thanks to Kari for her great post last week about the Fairy Cupcakes - sugared flowers.  They were so beautiful and I had no idea that pansies were edible!  Here is a picture of how mine turned out!  My pansies were a slightly different colour, but grown at my house with no pesticides and high off the ground in a container so little chance of other contaminates.  I had no idea how easy this was.  Now I used my own lemon cupcake recipe (the yellow bits on top are lemon zest) but the sugared flowers were the hit of the day.  My daughter had a special playdate and they picked the flowers and had a faerie tea party with the cakes once decorated.  It really made the day special.

Now Kari said that there are recipes that use rose petals... I have access to home grown pesticide free rose petals!  I'm so excited to make something else!
