  • Put the egg white and water in a small bowl and whip lightly with a fork, or hand-held whisk, allow to sit until the foam settles.
  • Fill a small, shallow plate with the sugar.
  • When the flowers are completely dry use a clean soft paint brush to paint one side of the blossom with the egg wash, then sprinkle with sugar.
  • Lay each blossom on waxed paper and set aside to dry.
  • When dry repeat the process on the other side, let air dry. Do not try to speed up the process by placing them in an oven, even at low temperature;this will turn them brown! Once they're completely dry use the to decorate all your wonderful confections!
