Ingredients
  • 1 egg white
  • 1 tbsp water
  • fresh, unbruised magnolia flowers - the smaller petals work best
  • 55g/2oz superfine caster sugar or xylitol
Instructions
  1. In a small bowl, stir together the egg white and water.
  2. Dip the petals into the egg wash, and gently shake off the excess.
  3. In another bowl, toss the petals with the sugar and transfer to a rack. Use small amounts of sugar at a time because the sugar or xylitol clumps once wet.
  4. Allow the petals to dry at least 6 hours, longer if necessary for larger leaves.
  5. Store in an airtight container.
