Violet SugarI have been remiss in letting readers know my recipe for Violet Sugar is posted in Recipes from Garden to Table under In the Garden on the main menu bar. (Quick link here.)

This is a quick and easy recipe that is fun to give as special gifts to friends and family. Adds a mild, delicate flavour to baked goods and gently-flavoured fruits such as peaches, strawberries and pears. Enjoy.

Don’t forget to make up your annual supply of Violet Jelly either! (Quick link to recipe here.)

And if you wish to find out more about the delicate sweet violet (Viola odorata)…the plant to grow for its edible flowers…look in Plants We Grow under In the Garden on the main menu bar. (Quick link here.)
