cooking tips

Persian Fairy Floss is very similar to our "fairy floss" and can be used for decorating special desserts or cakes. Along with a sugar base, it has a lovely nutty sesame flavour that is quite unique. Once the "floss" is removed from its pack and exposed to the air it doesn't last more than about 20 minutes and it starts to bead up and take on moisture from the air.

Edible rose buds
