Ingredients
  • 100g dark chocolate
  • 15 - 20 magnolia buds
Instructions
  1. Wash the magnolia flowers gently and set aside to dry. Treat them tenderly so they don't bruise.
  2. I also remove the furry sepal at this point, but leave the stamen in place.
  3. Melt the dark chocolate in a bain marie, double boiler, or similar.
  4. Once melted, hold the magnolia flower by the stamen end and dip the petal end in the chocolate.
  5. Set aside on a try and leave to dry.
  6. When serving, either cut off the stamen end or leave it as something to 'hold' when you're eating your chocolate covered magnolias.
