What do you do when you receive a bunch of beautiful roses? You admire them for a few days and then you make little bundt cakes with rose glaze and sugar petals! For the rose petals you would need 1 egg white, a tablespoon of water and a cup of castor sugar. This will cover about 24 rose petals. Simply brush the egg white on one side, sprinkle with the sugar and let it set overnight. The rose glaze recipe is from Martha Stewart:
Rose Glaze : [for 24 cupcakes]
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3 cups confectioners sugar
- 2 1/2 teaspoons rose water
- pink food colouring
Make glaze a few hours before serving (if glazed cupcakes sit out too long, they will wrinkle). Whisk milk and confectioners’ sugar until smooth. Add rose water. Add a small drop of food coloring for pale pink, and stir. Immediately pour glaze on cupcakes (about 1 tablespoon each) just until flush with top of liner. Let set before decorating with sugared rose petals.
