Sugar Violets
The violet is the birth flower for February. A friend has her 70th coming up on the 24th. We are sharing our birthday parties (I will be 60 on the 22nd!), as she is the mother of my stepdaughter, who is kindly doing a family party. I thought I might try and make the other birthday girl a chocolate box of chocolates as a gift (I won't be allowed to cake, sadly). So the violets are made to top the box of chocolates. I used the Culpitt Violet cutter set to make these.

There is a pansy cutter Gail, but I bet you could use a plain 5 petal cutter and adapt it?

Thanks for telling! I think it will also work nicely on a pansy :)

Thank you Maggie! Gail, the white centres were made by putting a tiny bit of white petal paste in the middle of the violet before rolling out, so it merged into the colour. Then I dusted with a little extra violet to get the gradient of colour.
