Crowning Glories
You don't need a green thumb to make the candy rose petals that garnish Heavenly Angel Food Cake ―just a handful of gumdrops
and a dish of granulated sugar. Pretty enough to turn any dessert into a special occasion, gumdrop flowers can be made weeks
ahead and stored in an airtight container.
Gumdrops are super-inexpensive, so play around and have some fun―the less formal the shaping, the more natural the petals
look. Like learning to crimp the edges of a piecrust, there's a rhythm that comes easily after making a few. Use these ideas
as inspiration. Many of the tips and techniques for making rose petals can also be used to create other flowers.
