Steps:

  • Soak the gelatine in a bowl of cold water and set aside. Bring the cream, milk and sugar to the boil. Stir to dissolve the sugar, then take off the heat and add the violet essence - if you want to colour the creams, add the colourings, a tiny drop at a time, until it is as violet as you would like it. Gently squeeze the excess water from the gelatine, then stir it into the hot cream until completely dissolved. Pour into 2 glasses - martini glasses or Champagne coupes look nice - and leave to set in the fridge overnight.
  • The next day, gently melt the chocolate over a pan of simmering water, or in the microwave. Leave to cool a little, then gently zigzag over the top of the set cream mixture in the glasses. Return to the fridge for the chocolate to set.
  • To serve, sprinkle with the crystallised roses and violets. Serve with the shortbread on the side.

A DOZEN (12) WILD VIOLET RECIPES - WILD WALKS SOUTHWEST

From wildwalks-southwest.co.uk
  • Crystallised Violet Flowers. Crystallising violets is a beautiful way to preserve and eat them and is traditionally used for decorating cakes and desserts.
  • Sweet Violet Syrup Recipe. Violet syrup is a beautiful colour and a quick way to capture the flavour of sweet violets. Use in cocktails and dilute for drinks.
  • Sweet Violet Sugar (quick) This vibrant, purple sugar is made in an instant. It has a strong and rustic flavour and is perfect if you’re in a rush and just love that colour!
  • Sweet Violet Sugar (slow) A beautifully perfumed sugar made from infusing the flowers in sugar for 5-7 days. This slow process extracts the scent of sweet violets perfectly and is my preferred method, if I have time.
  • Sweet Violet Leaf Tea. Wild violet tea has been described as reminiscent of green tea. I used sweet violets (my favourite!) and found the tea to be rather earthy and violet flavoured and quite distinctive.
  • Sweet Violet Vinegar and Pickled Flowers. There’s something so satisfying about creating wild vinegars and pickling. It’s so simple and easy to do. Fill a jar half with violet flowers and fill with white wine vinegar or rice vinegar.
  • Sweet Violet Vodka. Oh my, breathing in the scent of this sweet violet infused vodka is heavenly. Drink on its own or blend with a little carbonated water and sweet violet syrup for the full violet vodka cocktail experience.
  • Sweet Violet Vinaigrette Recipe. A sweet and sour, floral salad dressing that is also a delightful pink colour! Ingredients. 2 tbsp sweet violet vinegar. 3 tbsp virgin olive oil.
  • Violet flower and leaf salad. This may sound simple, but tossing violet leaves and flowers into a salad is a divine way to experience them. A wonderful splash of colour and the soft texture of violet leaves is an added delight.
  • Violet Viennese Whirls. Buttery, melt-in-the-mouth biscuits, sandwiched together with a violet butter-cream. Find the full recipe and instructions here - Sweet Violet Viennese Whirls.
