I have started a small business using edible flowers and herbs, and found that this is actually an old tradition - syrups, butters, candied flowers, even infused spirits are all delightful old-fashioned ways to use edible flowers! My new twist (what I am selling especially) is using them in cookies & popsicles. Just remember to avoid pesticides, and other environmental pollutants when choosing your blooms to eat!
