Not only can this flower wheel be used to decorate cakes, but it can also be used to elevate drinks too! The flowers come in a variation of different sizes and can be used whole, or the petals can be used individually – depending on the size of your creation.
The larger edible flowers in this wheel can be placed on spooktacular cakes alongside our ghostly edible leaves. The fresh flowers in this mix can even be added into ice cubes to create your own unique spin on a traditional creepy cocktail – how fun does that sound?!

They have a very subtle taste, so they can be used to decorate bakes without altering the taste.

Halloween Dessert Bark with Edible Flowers
Method
Gently wash your fresh edible flowers and carefully dry with a paper towel
Melt the chocolate over a bain marie and allow to cool slightly
Smooth out your melted chocolate over greaseproof paper to approximately half a centimetre thick with a large pallet knife
Once Smooth, carefully place you fresh and pressed edible flowers on top, spreading evenly all over
Sprinkle your chosen toppings and dried edible flowers in gaps – you can add as little or as many as you would like!
Add your sprinkles – you can place them neatly or go mad and throw them on!
With a food–safe brush, dip into the edible glitter and tap over the bark to add the perfect, sparkling finishing touch
Place the chocolate on a chopping board to keep flat and put in the fridge until the chocolate has set
Once set, use a sharp knife, and cut into sections. The chocolate will break up and you’ll be left with yummy Halloween edible bark
You can add this bark to your favourite dishes or enjoy it by itself as a lovely rich Halloween treat. Instead of chocolate, @whipandwhiskcakery suggest that you can use yoghurt to make your bark. In addition, if you wanted to add some unique flavours into your bark, our Halloween shiso dust could be sprinkled atop or added to the chocolate during the melting process.
One of our Halloween products that is commonly only used in savoury dishes in our orange baby carrots. These withhold a gruesome orange shade; however they do contain a succulent sweet carrot flavour. They can be added to startling stews, spine-spiking soups, creepy curries and many more! Baby carrots range in size from 2 to 4 inches in length and add a perfect crisp texture into any dish.
Our nasturtium edible flowers have a powerful orange and red colour. Its strong peppery taste is often used in meaty dishes and sinister salads, as well as spooktacular savoury dishes. Did you know? You can also shop pressed nasturtium edible flowers too.
