Pretty in pink


Today I tried to make rose petal jelly, A new experiment for me...such color! The ingredient list for this jelly is: rose petals, water, lemon juice and sugar. No food coloring! But the finished product is a bright, red/pink. The jars are still warm but it still looks very thin in there. I think we maybe ended up with syrup instead of jam. I haven't tasted it yet either. I will post more tomorrow when we get to try some on our toast.

  1. Incredible color, especially considering the pale pink of the rose petals. I've had commercially made Alaskan rose petal jelly. Very subtle flavor. That is, it didn't taste like much of anything. But it's pretty! Yours will taste best because you made it at home.
