Sugar High Friday #30 - Flower Power

Posted on April 2nd, 2007 in Sugar High Friday, Blog events by Monisha

I’m excited about hosting this month’s Sugar High Friday - a worldwide blog event created by the divine Domestic Goddess herself, this event has had some terrific themes in the past including Caramel, Coffee, Ginger and of course Dark Chocolate.

This month’s theme is inspired by the beautiful Spring weather we’ve been enjoying recently, hopefully those of us who are still struggling with winter blues can shrug off those warm scarves and get in the kitchen to participate in this month’s theme - Flower Power. This theme has little to do with psychedelic rock music and a lot more to do with using flowers or floral extracts in any shape or form in a sweet treat - go crazy with roses, lavender and saffron; make and use ethereal candied flowers and if all else fails, pipe delicate violets and daisies on your favorite cupcake. Derive inspiration from anything that is blooming and full of life this Spring, the ideas are endless, let your inner flower child loose!

Here’s what you do to participate -

• Write about your SHF #30 entry on your blog by April 23rd, including a link to this post.
• The deadline for submissions is April 23rd and the round-up will be posted on April 27th.
