PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Deco Tartelette blogger Winslow (Floral Libations) blends whimsy with flavor in this flower-powered collection that aims to "add a little fanciness to everyday life." She begins her lesson on "the art of botanical bliss" with a pantry employing fresh and dried flowers in different and delicious ways—including in a floral butter ideal for slathering on stacks of crepes, and a decadent orange blossom chocolate hazelnut spread. Moving on to the dishes, fresh petals make their way into a savory calendula bacon quiche with herbs, are nestled into charming tea sandwiches, and get swirled into batters for doughnuts, waffles, and pancakes. Lilacs that "taste like spring" are sprinkled atop breakfast dishes, while nasturtiums are called on as a spicy add-in for salads and cream cheese. Dried flowers offer a wide range of uses in sugars, salts (chamomile and rose), syrups, coffee creamers, and even homemade marshmallows (which make a scrumptious appearance in a rocky road ice cream with rose-salted almonds). Of note are Winslow's many unexpected flavor pairings, in such tasty combinations as chocolate chip cookies with rose salt, and white peach muffins dusted with jasmine sugar. Helpful how-tos on sourcing edible flowers and growing them at home round out this intoxicating guide. This is sure to delight all the senses.
