People have been eating the products of the rose for thousands of years though North Americans seem to have lost interest in enjoying roses for more than the visual pleasure they bring us.  But as a rosarian of some years, I would have been remiss if I hadn't shared these edibles with you. 

      Enjoy,
     Jane Marie

PS  A word of caution: Be sure the rose petals you prepare for food products are pesticide free.

Eating Your Roses

Rose Water

  • 2 teaspoons rose petals, minced
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • A drop or two of almond extract

Mix well and chill.

Serve with breads, muffins, rolls, etc.

   

Rose Jelly

You'll need

  • 8 ounces rose petals
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 1/4 cups sugar
  • Juice of 1 lemon
