*Mother's Day Collection- Select highly scented roses, deep red ones preferably. Wash roses then carefully pull off petals; drain on absorbent paper until no moisture remains. If desired, cut off white pulpy base of each petal as this may have a bitter flavor. Mix egg white with fork,just to blend. Drop in rose petals one at a time. Make sure each is completely coated with egg white but there is no excess, Have a shallow bowl of granulated sugar ready. Drop in the petal; gently spoon sugar over it to coat completely. Remove sugared petal to tray; let stand in cool dry place (not refrigerator) until dry. Store in open container. For best appearance, serve within 24 hours. Use your crystslized rose petals to decorate cakes, cupcakes, cookies, or serve tiny ones as teatime "candies." (Source: Dorothy Dean)
