so anyone who knows me also knows that I consider it a bad weekend if I don’t manage to bake anything. I came seriously close to that this time but decided to round of the hecticness with trying these out.
I loved loved loved parma violets when I was younger (still do now) and am a sucker for that perfume-like taste. these mini meringues captured that really nicely.
they are a basic recipe of egg white and caster sugar but with some crushed crystallised violet petals folded in just before baking. they have also given them flecks of natural blue colour too. I baked them for 45 minutes to keep the slightly chewy texture.
perfect with lady grey tea.
